Every Sequel To Best Picture Oscar Winners - Ranked

James L Brooks’s comedy-drama Terms Of Endearment was a surprise package at the Oscars in 1983, picking up five gongs from 11 nominations and edging out critics' favourites like The Right Stuff and The Big Chill along the way.

Its sequel The Evening Star didn't arrive until 13 years later, and that was part of the problem. Did anyone really care that Shirley Maclaine and Jack Nicholson were revisiting these roles by the time the follow-up actually happened?

Brooks did not return to helm the sequel, with that honour falling to Steel Magnolia writer Robert Harling, though he failed to get the most out of Larry McMurtry's screenplay and fell flat at every turn in his efforts to recapture former glory.

Evening Star was critically panned and recouped little over half of its $20m budget.
