Oscar Bait: A movie about one of the most famous civil rights activists of all time. Just the fact that it was about Dr. King is enough for people to be clamoring to win every award on the planet, but the fact that it premiered during a time where race relations were a particularly flame-bait-y subject really seals the deal. It did win a number of awards, but only one of them was an Oscar, for Best Original Song.
Oscar Bait, yeah or nay? I vote yeah, obviously, for all the reasons listed.
Dissenting opinions include "it is dismissive" and "it is condescending", neither of which are significant factors in determining a trope's application.
