"Titanic" in 1997, because that was an awful, awful movie with an awful soundtrack. Terrible acting, but what else is there to expect from a movie made in Hollywood?

I never understood how "The English Patient" won. It is one boring film.

There are many that have won the academy award when other more worthy films in the same year lost out here in my opinion are some of them:- 1941-How green was my valley beat Citizen Kane 1948-Hamlet beat The treasure of the sierra madre 1955- Marty beat Rebel without a cause 1959-Ben hur beat Some like it hot 1960-The apartment beat Psycho !977- Annie Hall beat Star wars 1994- Forrest Gump beat The Shawshank redemption 1998-Shakespeare in love beat Saving private Ryan

"crash" ~ ~ the screenplay was almost laughably pounding us over the head " Racism is bad! Racism is bad! Racism is bad!" The weakness of the script detracted from the great performances and the script made it not such a great film to me. [ In my opinion, "Brokeback Mountain" would have been a better pick that year. I'll also add I think "Titanic" (1997) deserved to win - - boy ,that film gets trashed. :) ] +5

There are quite a few of them. Amadeus, because a The Killing Fields was a much more deserving movie that year. Dances with Wolves, because it was a long boring movie. Braveheart should not have beaten Apollo 13. The English Patient, just because. Titanic was a boring load of bunk. Chicago because it is one of the worst movies ever made.
