This one is maybe the closest to being debatable while at the same time being completely fury-inducing. Kevin Costner's Magnum Opus of....something or other cleaned up at the Kodak Theater this year. It was nominated a whopping twelve times, winning seven awards. This included wins for Best Picture, directing, and adapted screenplay. Unbelievable. The other four nominees that year were as follows: Awakenings, The Godfather Part III, Ghost, and a little film called (you may have heard of it) Goodfellas. Are you F@!%ing kidding me? Goodfellas is not only great, it's an all-time great - rivaled perhaps only by the first two GodFather films (and Miller's Crossing) in the Mafia film pantheon. Dances With Wolves, on the other hand, is a movie. It has a beginning, a middle and some type of ending. (It DID have end credits) It had nice cinematography, if you like open fields. Dances With Wolves not only beat out Goodfellas for Best Picture, Costner himself stole the directing Oscar away from Martin Scorsese. And then the adapted screenplay Oscar, making this one of the greatest robberies in Academy history. I dare anyone to attempt and justify this one. It only gets worse the more time passes.
