Ok, the thing it had in common with Wings was that these were the only two best picture winners with exactly one syllable in the title.

Was it the capital A? I was so damn proud of that hint.

This was the third of three number one songs from the same number one album, the soundtrack of a number one movie so iconic that the title became synonymous with the Artist.

Honey I KNOW I KNOW I KNOW times are changin. It's time we all reach out for something new. That means you too. You say you want a leader But you can't seem to make up your mind. I think you'd better close it. And let me guide you. To the [title]

It used to seem to me that my life ran on too fast And I had to take it slowly just to make the good part last. But when you're born to run, it's so hard to just slow down, So don't be surprised to see me back in that bright part of town.

It's not black and white. Even after you ID the film, you may not figure out what the "thing in common" is. Every other hint is more revealing than the Wings clue. Especially the one I hid in response to WordWolf's first guess. So let me clarify something else: Eastwood did not direct the movie I'm thinking of. He directed the Best Picture winner from the year before. The one Eastwood directed was written by the same person.

Nope. It's a more mundane thing in common than that. How many movies won Best Picture where the writer/director conceded later some other movie should have won? Can't be a long list. It'll hit you.
