mononoke, I'm pretty sure you mean RACHEL Griffiths in Muriel's Wedding (a performance I adore, by the way). Although I'm certain she'd be flattered to be confused with the more, er, shapely Richard Griffiths.

A sentimental year for me. Here is when I began my love affair with movies! I remember Braveheart being my number one pick with absolutely zero chance of variation and laughing at the absurd notion of a talking pig film being better that this huge, sweeping epic. Now, the talking pig film dances circles around Mel.

[HarryGoldfarb]

Well, this posts of yours really impress me!

Let me start with Picture:
First: Do u actually think that American President is that good? Why? I know everything is a metter of taste but I would like to hear some comments about it cause for what I remember, I liked that film, I mean I thought it was very nice, enjoyable should I say, and that year I thought it was the most likely winner of the Golden Globes (specially cause at the time I hadn't seen Babe, which now I believe was a smarter choice)... but... Best Picture and Best Director??

And then: The Bridges of Madison County is an interesting choice, actually I can see it in the list with no problem cause is such a beautiful film specially because of its incredibly humanity. Streep is at her best. Finally, I'm not a big fan of Leaving Las Vegas and it is still hard for me to understand why it appeals to so many people. Sure, it is almost a social statement and a crude portrait of a common disease but... that makes it a Great Film? I didn't like the direction and Cage award is for me one of the most irritating (Shue was better than him) because I remember in that race people was so sure that he was going to win and I couldn't stop to say "no way, look at Sean Penn!"... I still do not get that choice...

My list for Best Picture would have been more like this:
- Apollo 13
- Babe
- Braveheart
- Dead Man Walking
- Sense and Sensibility

I'm not saying that Braveheart is a better film that BOMC but since it was named Best Picture is hard for me to imagine the list without it; and also, it is not as bad as some people say. At that time I thought Apollo 13 would have won even without the director's nod, specially after watching Braveheart ("Oh, my God, this film is totally out of the way!" My mistake...). I like Babe, a beautiful film more original than most films of that year and very, very well made... a tiny smart film. Sense and Sensibility was (and it is still) my sentimental favorite but since the first time I saw it, even though I enjoyed it a lot, I thought that it didn't had the strenght to take the award. And Il Postino, even though it is also a beautiful film I was pretty sure that it wasn't going to win, so it left me stucked with Apollo 13...

However, my really favorite film of that year is Dead Man Walking. I still do not understand why Oscars and GG left it out of the Best Picture AND screenplay lists. By far better than Leaving Las Vegas, and of course in an even more great way than Braveheart, with so much significance and resonance not only to these days but forever. Penn was truly robbed (though I also believe that Robbins was robbed too, that I can understand a little bit more. Gibson's work is not bad at all: it takes something to make a film like Braveheart, no matter how bad it is written and acted, he managed to make a watchable film. Also, sometimes I believe the award was given basically for the battles scenes. So maybe I can accept that he was the best director of the year, but I will never buy that Braveheart was the best film of the year).

Best Actor:
I haven't seen "Cry, the beloved country" but you're right about McKellan. He was better than either Dreyfuss or Troisi. Everytime I watch Richard III I start to think "isn't he a little bit cartoonish?" and then I realize that it is very ex profeso. A great actor indeed. And I have to say that I can not bear Hopkins in Nixon too, but I do not know if that's because of the character or due to the horrible direction work. However, I never have thought that it is for his performance, a great one.

Actress and supporting actress:
I also haven't seen Bates in Dolores Claiborne, even though I've been wanting to watch that film since a long time ago, partly because she won the best actress award in the Tokyo Film Festival in a tie with a venezuelan actress named Gledys Ibarra, who acted in our submission for foreign language film that year: "Sicario" (not a great film though). I believe too that Stone belonged to the supporting category and if that would had happen, right now she would have an oscar in her house. I mean, I like Joan Allen too, but for me she suffers from the same thing that Hopkins: Nixon is so unwatchable that it is almost impossible to enjoy those two great performances, so if Sharon would have been nominated for supporting, she would have won over Sorvino.

Supporting Actor:
I wouldn't replace James Cromwel, but Tim Roth, and not for Bacon but for John Leguizamo in "To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything, Julie Newmar", a pretty good performance and a little film that I enjoyed a lot...

The rest of the awards were for me quite good choices with the exception of sound effects editing (I still remember the guy who saved Wallace of being murderer in a tramp taking out the knife he just throw of the dead body and the sound is like two knives clashing between them) and foreign language film: Antonia's Line is a good film but it is about nothing: good use of the magic realism with pretty and imaginative shoots but in general is about nothing. The Star Maker would have been a better choice.

So, in a short form, my choices would have been:
Picture: Dead Man Walking
Director: Tim Robbins, DMW (Gibson is not a bad one)
Actor: Sean Penn, DMW
Actress: Sarandon, DMW
S. Actor: Kevin Spacey, Usual Suspects
S. Actress: S. Stone, Casino

Original Screenplay: Usual Suspects
Art Direction and Costume Design: Restoration
Cinematography, make up and original dramatic music: Braveheart
Comedy music and song: Pocahontas
Editing and Sound: Apollo 13
Soun Effects Editing: Batman Forever
Visual Effects: Babe
