Montenegro's beautiful performance is the one that still stays with me to this day, I don't remember a single damn thing Paltrow did in Weinstein in Love.

The impact of Heath Ledger’s performance as the Joker. Slumdog Millionaire VS The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. 2010- The Hurt Locker VS Avatar 2014- 12 Years A Slave VS Gravity 2004- The Return of the King swept the Oscars

    I’m from Brazil and Fernanda Montenegro’s nomination for best actress is like a HISTORICAL thing here, pretty sure it’s the only acting nomination for a brazilian actor/actress ever! I’m 22 years old, so I wasn’t around for that oscar season obviously, but I literally grew up hearing about how Fernanda is the greatest brazilian actress because of that nomination and she’s really incredible even today with 90 years old (she’s in the movie that we pushed for the international feature film category in the last Oscar called “Invisible Life” - really great brazilian movie if anybody wanna check it out).

    Good rundown. You guys should keep in mind that pre-2001 the BAFTAs were held after the Oscars and were less of an Oscar precursor and more of an award show for regional accomplishments, so looking at them the way you'd look at SAG or the globes is probably misleading.

Other war movies have better concepts like the madness of war in Apocalypse Now, the illusion of enlisting for patriotism and the fatal outcome of All Quiet on the Western Front, the brain damage of Full Metal Jacket, the adrenaline addiction of The Hurt Locker, etc. Saving Private Ryan is about sacrificing an entire platoon to save a private and make a mother happy. It's ok, but it's patriotic heroism, something a little soft about the war, and many movies have already talked about it.

    The reason, why Shakespeare in Love shocked as an Oscar Winner for Best Picture: It didn't. It wasn't a shock. Not even remotely like the people would think today. This was my 2nd Academy Awards and the first one, where I got interested in seeing the nominees just because they were.... yes... THE nominees! And I clearly remember two things: 1)The surprising Best Picture nominee wasn't Elizabeth but Thin Red Line above The Truman Show (which was my favorite movie of the year, so I was quite furious about that XD) 2)It was a very, very, VERY tight race between Shakespeare in Love und Saving Private Ryan from the beginning. You already mentioned the facts: Shakespeare had a whopping 13 nominations. It got the SAG ensemble, it got the BAFTA, it got every major Guild nomination. It also got the most awards at the Golden Globes (together with The Truman Show!!!): Picture Comedy/Musical, Actress Comedy/Musical and Screenplay. The later one was a very strong win (similar like Green Book a couple of years ago), because the Globes has only one writing category. And, by the way: Shakespeare in Love had also the most GG nominations: six... together with... again... The Truman Show! On the other side, Saving Private Ryan had one major advantage: it's director. Spielberg nearly got every award, except the BAFTA. The picture itself nabbed the very, very, VERY strong DGA-PGA-combo. But, to be honest... that's it! Statistically speaking, that was the only pro-argument for the win. I also really believe, that the Best Picture nomination of Thin Red Line hurt Saving Private Ryan. I, for myself, would have never seen the movie before the ceremony, if it wouldn't have been nominated. And even if I was a little bit too young to admire it (for an 21 year old boy, it seemed quite slow paced ;) ), I was absolutely stunned about the cinematography - and was even disappointed, when Ryan won that category at the oscars. So, I can imagine some older oscar voters, who already saw Private Ryan, wanted to award it and then, after seeing Thin Red Line, thought „Hm... I like Malick's movie more...“. Because they are quite similar and opposite at the same time, if you understand what I mean. Of course, you could make a similar argument about Shakespeare in Love compared to Elizabeth: both costume films but one is clearly a comedy and the other one a drama. But again: Elizabeth wasn't the surprise nominee. It was more a surprise, that the director wasn't nominated. The people already saw that movie, so they couldn't suddenly fall in love with it and wouldn't drop Shakespeare for it. And yes, you said it: Shakespeare in Love is clever. It isn't a perfect film, but it was kinda unique - and still is, if you think about it. It's also about a writer and the theater - and the oscars love films about themselves. So, there are really a lot of reasons, why Shakespeare won over Ryan - even without the Harvey-factor (which was already a known „thing“ in 1999). I for myself had no clear preference that year, because my „horse“, The Truman Show, wasn't in the race. And as an „outsider“, I really have the urge to defend Shakespeare. Not because it was the best choice. But it was a worthy one. And it's reputation just sank, because it got the oscar - and not because it's a bad movie in any way.

    Here’s why u’re wrong: The golden globes has 70 members from foreign press associations... Shakespeare in Love sweeping the comedy musical category makes no shockwaves as there was literally ZERO competition. It got SAG nominations but the strength of SPR lay with the technical categories. These. are unfair comparisons, especially considering PGA and DGA mean so much more statistically than SAG ensemble and Golden Globes comedy picture. Yes it was a shock as director picture pre-2000s was like bread and butter... together. Its clear that this was ur 2nd oscars.

    Shakespeare In Love is one of my favorite movies of all time. Surprisingly, the more I watch it the more I enjoy it and love it. Saving Private Ryan becomes tiresome after the stunning opening act and plunges me into a depressed mood every time I watch it. Geoffrey Rush and Judi Dench are sublime in it. I’d watch Shakespeare every weekend and I would have a good time. The Truman Show was my favorite film of that year though.

    First, love those, thank you guys for making them, they brighten my day. Second, 1997 would be my year of choice. Titanic swallowed so much of both the conversation and the actual Oscars that year, but a bunch of my favorite movies from the 90s came out at the same time. Let's give them some spotligt! Third, oh my god, you should bump The Celebration up on your watch-list. It is strange in many ways, but also a bit of a masterpiece. It has a scene that is quite the showstopper, a distinctly scandinvian temprament, and I think at least the Oscar Expert would like it a lot.

    1998 was in my opinion the worst and most infuriating year of the Oscars (1999 Oscars). Saving Private Ryan was the most realistic and gory war movie ever, with good themes to live on today. Shakespeare in Love wasn’t bad, but there is no way the Academy should choose nothing but a charming love story over SPR. Also, the Truman Show deserved a nomination for best picture, instead of Life is Beautiful. Also, Jim Carrey had a great performance in the movie. But the real best actor should have gone to Edward Norton, who delivered the performance of a lifetime in American History X. In conclusion, 1998 had lots of great contenders, but the Academy wasted their gold on movies we didn’t want to win over others. Also, please do a retrospective on 1994 (Forrest Gump, Shawshank Redemption, Pulp Fiction).

    If there is any Oscar I think should be revoked, it’s Shakespeare in Love’s win for Best Picture. Not just because I think it’s the inferior movie (I actually haven’t seen it), but because of the notorious bribing involved. For those unaware, a certain someone wanted very much to force the Academy into awarding Shakespeare. So he did a heavy undermining campaign, such as forcing news publications to promote the movie, that at the time was considered unfair competition. Everyone thought Spielberg should pretty much sue him, but Spielberg didn’t want any drama so he let the debacle slide, allowing Shakespeare to cruise to victory. And unfortunately, everyone has since done the exact same kind of campaign, effectively ruining the Oscars forever, even after the someone was finally incriminated. Also, the someone was Harvey Weinstein.

    Waking Ned Devine (pronounced like the word 'devine') is a great, fun flick full of Irish accents, I love it. It's a movie about an isolated, tiny village and an outsider visiting them, that ISN'T horror! Except for one part where they stumble upon a dead body, I guess. Mulan's Reflections was the song of the year, hands down. I sang that song to death back in 1998/1999.
