Oscar Blogging – The Worst Best Picture Winners
I bet a lot of voters would like to take these back:
- 1990 – Dances with Wolves beats out Goodfellas; it is the last Kevin Costner movie to be seen by anyone outside of his immediate family.
- 1980 – the quite ordinary Ordinary People is chosen over Raging Bull, considered by some to be the best movie of the ’70s.
- 1979 – Kramer vs. Kramer beats out the haunting Apocalypse Now and immediately slips into obscurity.
- 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…
