"DIR: Tim Watts, David Stoten SUMMARY: A heated discussion in a newspaper office is played out between three versions of Kirk Douglas at different stages of his career. WHY IT'S HERE: Tim Watts and David Stoten's 'The Big Story' is one of the shortest Oscar nominees ever. At just over a minute and a half in length, this superb little comedy relies heavily on the audience having seen at least a handful of Kirk Douglas films, although fans of classic Hollywood will get a kick out of the spot-on"
