  • 1990 – Dances with Wolves beats out Goodfellas; it is the last Kevin Costner movie to be seen by anyone outside of his immediate family.

  • 1976 – Scorsese begins his long history of getting the shaft as Rocky (!!!) wins over Taxi Driver.
  • 1941 – Up for the honor: Citizen Kane, Suspicion, and the Maltese Falcon; and the winner is – How Green is My Valley. Just sad, that one…
