The 18th Academy Awards was the first such ceremony after World War II. As a result, the ceremony featured more glamour than had been present during the war. Plaster statuettes that had been given out during the war years were replaced with bronze statuettes with gold plate.
Bing Crosby was nominated for a second time for playing Father O’Malley, this time in The Bells of St. Mary's. (He had won the year before in Going My Way.) He did not win in the second time nomination.
