Ugh.<BR/><BR/>But, as Javier said, you're stuff about critics and auteur pieces today is so true. I can think of a few others that would've been hailed as masterpieces back then but were instead dismissed and almost shunned.<BR/><BR/>I was actually surprised when I found out this won Best Picture, and that was only recently too. I had always just assumed that it was too much for the Academy and that they nominated it and let it be but then I found out it actually won and I was impressed.<BR/><BR/>Not that I've seen it mind you... but I hope to!<BR/><BR/>-GlennAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-1131034577750805722005-11-03T11:16:00.000-05:002005-11-03T11:16:00.000-05:00Arguably, this is best film ever made.
