Lots of stuff I've never heard of but Chinatown was released five days before I was born, and it SMASHED the Oscars.

There wasn’t a breakdown for 1952 but Singing in the Rain came out that year - a timely reminder of the Chicken Run and Withdean Stadium!

Telling that my birthday is shared with the relief of a blaxploitation flick, and that just a few days before came out One of our Dinosaurs is Missing - a time when any white actor could be simply chinesed up.
