“I saw ‘Splendor in the Grass’ on TV, and I just thought it was so beautiful,” said Reese Witherspoon, who is nominated for Best Actress for “Wild.”

”I thought Natalie Wood was amazing, and Warren Beatty, his first movie; it was just beautiful.”

Fellow Oscar nominees Michael Keaton named “Midnight Cowboy” and “The Graduate,” while J.K. Simmons said he was “engrossed by the storytelling” in “To Kill a Mockingbird.”
