About This Performance

A film’s score conveys mood, pace, and tension. It sets the scene and is one of the most critical aspects of storytelling on screen.

Since 1939, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has been awarding the Oscar for Best Score.
Join us as we celebrate those films and film composers who took home the coveted trophy for capturing the perfect emotion that brought the film to life.

Hold an Oscar!

We are delighted to share that History San Jose will be showcasing an Oscar in the lobby of the California Theatre prior to Hollywood Spectacular.

Get a chance to hold the trophy and snap a picture to share with your family and friends!
