For the past few
years I've been trying to catch up on the last one hundred years of film
and watch as many of the best films that have ever been made as well as
keeping up with new releases. In the hope of re-watching some of the
best movies in history as well as seeing for the first time some classics
which have passed me by, I thought I'd try and watch every Best Picture
Oscar Winner. This is obviously going to take some time but when I'm
done I'll have complied a complete list of all the Best Picture Winners
and have a review of them linked below. Before embarking on this time
consuming idea I'd already seen twenty-four of the eighty-four films and
have reviewed a couple of them on this blog but I'm going to watch them
all again to give myself a complete picture of the best cinema has to
offer. Obviously the Academy Awards aren't always accurate in their choices for
Best Picture and many of the best films ever made will be missing from
the list. The eighty-four films are also hugely dominated by American cinema and feature very little in the way of comedy, science fiction or horror but nonetheless by the time I'm finished I'm certain my
cinematic back catalogue will be much richer and I hope that you'll
enjoy the reviews that I write.
