Unforgiven is possibly the best winner of the last 50 years. The Silence of the Lambs is a close second.

I couldn’t decide between The English Patient and Dances With Wolves because I love them both. But I went with The English Patient.

FYC: Vanessa Kirby - Pieces of a Woman

Imagine 1999, one of the most groundbreaking years in cinema history. So many classics came out.

The Matrix, Fight Club, Eyes Wide Shut, Magnolia, Being John Malkovich, Three Kings, The Sixth Sense, The Blair Witch Project, The Talented Mr Ripley, The Iron Giant, Election, etc..

And which movie the Academy decides to reward as Best Picture??? American Beauty, looool.

Anyway i have a soft spot for Braveheart, so that’s the one for me.

Schindler’s List is a great runner-up.

That is absolutely an overrated comment on Unforgiven. You just dismissed “One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest”, “Godfather”, “Annie Hall”, “The Sting”, “Schindler’s List”, “Forrest Gump”, “Amadeus”, “Braveheart”, “American Beauty”, etc.

Imo, 1970s and 90s are the most brilliant decades for movie industry.

American Beauty has NOT aged well… for a lot of reasons.

Schindler’s List. It actually gutted me to my core, and I grew up in a community of Holocaust survivors. I actually went to school with some of the grandkids of the Schindler Jews who appeared in the movie. Spielberg is a proper mensch for this and his Holocaust testimonial project. Can’t vote here as it has an apostrophe apparently.
