What is the best movie to win Best Picture?
"Silence of the Lambs."
Either that or "Rebecca."
That's hard to say. There are many good movies that won Best Picture :D.
I know not everyone will agree, but I'll list the ones I think deserved it:
- Titanic
- Lord of the Rings: Return of the King
- My Fair Lady
- The King's Speech
- The Sound of Music
These are basically movies that had good acting, awesome visuals, well-done costumes, great music, and a well-written story you can watch any time and feel good about it.
I liked "Return" the first time. Found it excruciatingly boring the second, and subsequent times, I tried to sit through it.
"Titanic" gets a lot of shit and while its script is clunky and the acting occasionally laughable it is in my book pretty engaging from start to finish.
All your other choices are pretty decent.
Thanks :) We did get tired of Titanic after a while, but I still listen to the music sometimes, or read up on the costumes. At least when you watch it, you know what to expect from it.
