The Greatest Oscar Year of All Time

Every year, the Academy Awards celebrates the pinnacle of Hollywood filmmaking. Sometimes the Oscars go to films that become all-time classics (Gone with the Wind, Lawrence of Arabia, Amadeus). Other times, not so much (How Green Was My Valley, Oliver!, Million Dollar Baby).
