Should Shakespeare in Love have won the best picture in 1998?

I think Saving Private Ryan should of won and I believe it will be one of the movies that will stay around while Shakespeare in Love has already faded away.


Agreed. I don't know why such boring films get nominated. Especially those period pieces like Shakespeare that have American actors faking British accents. Why not hire British actors...argh.

NYFF 2011 Review: MY WEEK WITH MARILYN

Rating:

At first glance, Simon Curtis’ first feature film  My Week With Marilyn looks to be a power move by the Weinsteins to repeat the inimitable success of 1998′s Shakespeare in Love taking Best Picture over Spielberg’s superior Saving Private Ryan. A look at one of the most iconic stars in film history through the eyes of an impressionable young man, My Week With Marylin comes outfitted with a top-notch British cast, handsome production values and a high-profile performance from Michelle Williams , handed the challenging task of portraying Ms. Monroe at the height of her fame. The resulting film feels overlong yet slight at 90 minutes and despite Ms. Williams struggling amicably to capture the vulnerable woman beneath the star veneer, Curtis directs a good-looking film that has little to offer besides the fleeting pleasure of watching talented thespians at work.
