Re: Biggest "Oscar-Injustices" of all time.....(past)..

207.81.82.97

Goodfellas losing to everything else that year is pretty high up the list -- the best film on gangsters by a WIDE margin -- vastly superior to the 3 hour long mob soap opera The Godfather (Whcih should have lost to Cabaret another film that gotr royally hosed).

The Conversation was Coppola's best film.

Other ones
1) No nomination for best film for The War Zone
2) No best actor nomination for Bob Hoskins in Felicia's Journey
3) No Best Actress nomination and WIN for Linda Fiorentino for The last Seduction
4) No best picture nomination for Young Frankenstein and Actor for Gene Wilder
5) No Best supporting actor for Ralph Fiennes(Schindler's List)
6) No nomination best actor Ben Kingsley (Schindler's list)
7) No Best/actress nominations actor nominations (Cate Blanchett and Ralph Fiennes) for Oscar and Lucinda
8) No Best picture E.T., Leaving Las Vegas, Pulp Fiction, A Clockwork Orange, JFK.
9) No best actress Nomination - Katrine Vanasse in Emporte Moi
10) No best picture nomination Leaving Las Vegas, Monster's Ball.(keeping this recent)
11) anyone else winning over Russel Crowe in Gladiator

And things that were poor choices for wins and nominations

Best Film Editing Forest Gump, Ray, LOTR(any of them).
Best Picture Gladiator, LOTR, Gandhi,
Best actor Russel Crowe - Gladiator
Best Actor Tommy Lee Jones "The Fugitive"

Blaggards they always screw stuff up...generally though the best picture is at least respectable.
