Rank and discuss the 2001 nominees for Best Picture and Best Director.

My rankings:

1) In the Bedroom
2) Gosford Park
3) A Beautiful Mind – Well done and got me hooked beggining to end, but there was something missing here.
4) Moulin Rouge! – It would’ve been my winner if it wasn’t for the final act. Too silly.
5) The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring

1) David Lynch, Mulholland Drive – The best movie of all time.
2) Robert Altman, Gosford Park
3) Peter Jackson, The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring
4) Ron Howard, A Beautiful Mind – Such a thankless directing achievement.

It's about the chaotic editing in Moulin Rouge!

Definitely agree that Lynch should have won the director award, although that never would have happened in a b-trillion years.
Really wish Gosford Park was the BP winner that year, or if not that then The Fellowship of the Ring.

David Lynch should’ve won and Mulholland Drive deserved to win BP.

Pleasantly surprised to see so much support for my preferred combo, as well! Gosford Park/Lynch just makes the most sense. Also agree re: if Jackson & LOTR co had to win, it should not have been for the third film lol.
