Or not.
Some of them were worthy . . . others not so much. American Beauty, No Country for Old Men, A Beautiful Mind, Dances with Wolves, It Happened One Night were okay movies but nothing spectacular. Grand Hotel, All About Eve, GWTW, Casablanca, Lawrence of Arabia, Patton, Platoon, Godfather series, The Silence of the Lambs were worthy.
Titanic is the last one I saw in a theater
saw it in rio de janeiro
the crowd laughed hilariously while the ship sank
weird
After 2010....huh?
Didn’t Nomadland win in 2020? Did it get skipped over? Are these supposed to be the years for which the Oscar was awarded or is this supposed to be the year in which the Oscar ceremony took place?
I amazed how many I’ve NOT seen. We lived in an area where there weren’t tons of movie theaters and my father rarely took us to movies. My mother would take us to some Disney stuff, like Flubber and Love Bug. We had television (free!) so we got to watch that. So I guess I never got the movie bug that seems to drive so many people.
Sometimes people will reference a movie, and I’ll admit I haven’t seen it. You should see the jaw drop.
Actually planning on watching “The Best Years of Our Lives” tonight.
Geez, I had to go to 2008 to find one I’ve seen.
titanic was the last one I had seen
Counted, to the best of my ability to remember, I’ve seen 24 of them. Biggest group I’ve seen are early 70’s. I do like to pick up the 40’s/50’s ones. I seem to get a lot out of those.
If the theme of this year’s winner wasn’t essentially “accept LGBTQXYZ people as they are, or destroy the world”, it wouldn’t have even been nominated. IMHO of course. Maybe the competition was just that bad.
so.. basically decades of woke crap has been winning.
Big surprise!
Ordinary Peiple over Raging Bull is a crime.
I’ve seen nineteen of them. Twenty if you count Man For All Seasons...which I saw in my Catholic school religion class just after it came out.
“the crowd laughed hilariously while the ship sank
weird”
A ship full of rich gringos dying a horrible death?
What don’t you understand?
Racism.........contrary to popular belief it’s not just for white folks 😏
Forrest Gump........still not gettin’ it
Dam, hasn’t been a decent one since Gladiator in 2001
The English Patient.......just kill me now
57 I’ve seen. None post 1995’s Forrest Gump.
I can’t believe that not one of those are a Barbara Stanwyck picture.
What a rip off!
