|
|
| for
each year I'll choose what film I would have chosen as best picture (chosen
from all films released that year, |
|
| not
just those that were nominated). I'm not necessarily picking my favorite
film, rather the one that I think should |
|
| be
considered the year's best. As a result there is a slight tendency towards
the epic, since that seems to be the academy's M.O. |
