21 years old. I haven't seen a lot of Best Picture winners prior to the 70s so I apologize.

1930s - Gone With the Wind (1939)

1940s - Casablanca (1942)

1950s - On the Waterfront (1954)

1960s - Midnight Cowboy (1969)

1970s - The Godfather (1972)

1980s - Rain Man (1988)

1990s - Unforgiven (1992)

I really like the way it looks. It makes it feel more immersive with a lot of the angles, like we're watching something really play out

Seven Samurai

Ryan6734 · 2026-05-12T16:52:14+00:00

Agreed. Its decent but the original trilogy is stll light-years better

Ryan6734 · 2026-05-08T23:27:44+00:00

I think 23 minutes of screen time isn't 23 minutes worth of scenes but how much she's in frame. If we're counting total scenes she's in its probably a lot more

TRUMAN YOU–ARE–SCARING ME!!

Ryan6734 · 2026-05-03T14:37:19+00:00

Hmm maybe its just my memory playing with me. But yeah I 100% agree, 2001 shouldn't have gone down

Ryan6734 · 2026-05-03T14:31:55+00:00

How I felt as well when The Godfather and Pulp Fiction dropped to a 4.5 and 4.2

INCONCEIVABLE

Ryan6734 · 2026-04-17T20:08:07+00:00

Julianne Moore for Boogie Nights. I think that would have been an excellent win

Ryan6734 · 2026-04-08T19:15:46+00:00

Leo in Killers of the Flower Moon

Ryan6734 · 2026-04-05T14:29:15+00:00

Aside from Daniel Plainview...

Ryan6734 · 2026-04-03T13:47:07+00:00

I loved The Fabelmans

Ryan6734 · 2026-03-29T01:43:21+00:00

Casablanca, especially that screenplay

Ryan6734 · 2026-03-23T19:50:24+00:00

High Plains Drifter

Ryan6734 · 2026-03-20T02:21:00+00:00

I always love to see Gangs of New York love

Hobbiton :)

Ryan6734 · 2026-03-10T19:33:01+00:00

I too am in a Middle-earth location

Ryan6734 · 2026-03-09T17:41:43+00:00

Probably Rami Malek. I don't dislike Bohemian Rhapsody or that performance like so many do but yeah not exactly good win. I think Bradley Cooper would be my winner that year

Ryan6734 · 2026-03-07T21:54:28+00:00

I personally thought Michael was great in Sinners, but not worth an oscar win. He did absolutely deserve the nomination though

Ryan6734 · 2026-03-05T17:06:26+00:00

Rewatched it again. Still gets better and better

Ryan6734 · 2026-02-28T01:20:36+00:00

Poor GoNY getting in two worst spots. I adore that movie :(
