Not sure if all of the following films should have won, but they’re my personal favorites:

1927/1928: The Racket
1928/1929: The Hollywood Revue
1929/1930: The Divorcee
1930/1931: Cimarron
1931/1932: It’s a toss-up between Five Star Final and Shanghai Express.
1932/1933:42nd Street (Little Women would be a very close second)
1934: Cleopatra
1935: David Copperfield
1936: Mr. Deeds Goes to Town
1937: A Star Is Born
1938: Jezebel
1939: The Wizard of Oz
1940: The Philadelphia Story
1941: The Maltese Falcon
1942: The Magnificent Ambersons
1943: Casablanca
1944: Double Indemnity
1945: This year is stacked! I’ll choose Spellbound for the Hitchcock-Bergman collaboration.
1946: It’s a Wonderful Life
1947: Mourning Becomes Electra (this wasn’t even nominated)
1948: Hamlet
1949: Either Twelve O’Clock High or The Heiress (as different as they are).
1950: All About Eve
1951: Quo Vadis
1952: High Noon
1953: Julius Caesar
1954: Most of my favorite films from this year were not nominated (Carmen Jones, Sabrina, A Star Is Born, Magnificent Obsession). The only exception being The Country Girl. For me it’s a toss-up between Carmen Jones and A Star Is Born.
1955: Marty
1956: The King and I
1957: Sayonara
1958: Cat on a Hot Tin Roof
1959: Suddenly, Last Summer (I know it gets a lot of hate). I immensely enjoy Pillow Talk too, one of the best rom-coms ever, in my opinion.
1960: Never on Sunday
1961: Judgment at Nuremberg
1962: Sweet Bird of Youth
1963: Cleopatra
1964: Mary Poppins
1965: Darling
1966: Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?

1981: Only When I Laugh
1982: Tootsie
1983: Terms of Endearment
1984: Places in the Heart

1986: A Room with a View
1987: Fatal Attraction
1988: Dangerous Liaisons
1989: Steel Magnolias
1990: Misery (I still don’t get how it wasn’t nominated)
1991: The Prince of Tides
1992: Death Becomes Her
1993: The Age of Innocence (one of the biggest snubs ever)

Black Dahlia (2006). I love the cinematography and costume design. The cast is pretty good (Josh Hartnett, Hilary Swank, Scarlett Johansson, Mia Kirshner and special mention to Fiona Shaw and Rose McGowan). As much as I enjoyed seeing Swank and Johansson play their roles, I do think the movie is flawed. Perhaps the problem is in the script/pacing.

Helen Hunt wasn’t exactly a surprise. She was the predicted winner although a lot of people thought it could have gone to Judi Dench as well. It was a two way race. Winslet was third in line to win and people thought that she could win only if there was a clean sweep by Titanic although some felt the Academy Members would reward the film at other place and not through newcomer Winslet. Helena Bonham Carter’s chances of a win had evaporated weeks ago after she lost GG to Judi Dench. Christie was #5.

 

Thank you for your reply! Interesting info.
