5th Academy Awards at the Cocoanut Grove of the Ambassador Hotel, March 4th, 1943.This photo was taken at the 15th Academy Awards held in the Cocoanut Grove of the Ambassador Hotel on March 4th, 1943. This is the night “Mrs. Miniver” scooped the pool, winning for Best Actress, Best Supporting Actress, Best Direction, Black and White Cinematography, Best Screenplay and Best Picture. I was surprised to see the attendees at a banquet as rationing was in full swing by then. The following year the ceremony was held at Grauman’s Chinese Theater with no banquet.
