1935's Mutiny On the Bounty
sported Best Actor nominees in
Charles Laughton, Clark Gable and Franchot Tone.

The winner was Victor McLaglen for The Informer. 1934 and 1935 were the two years
that the Academy permitted write-in votes in an era when they also announced the
complete tallies of the election. In the voting totals, it turned out that McLaglen's
closest competitor wasn't one of the nominated Mutiny on the Bounty trio,
but write-in Paul Muni in the Warner Bros. drama Black Fury.
