On this special episode of the Gold Derby Show, editors Joyce Eng and Christopher Rosen return with another round of Oscars Playback. This time, they look at the 1997 Academy Awards, which included the return of host Billy Crystal following a brief hiatus (00:10). Then, Joyce and Chris look back at the winners -- including a sweep from The English Patient, which won nine of 12 nominations -- and remember the Oscars' so-called "Independents Day."
