Nolte: What Should’ve Won the Best Picture Oscar – 2000 to 2009 24 Apr 2021 In part eight of this series, we look at the movies that should have won the Best Picture Oscar between 2000 and 2009. The millennium started out well enough with Gladiator, but with a few exceptions, it was all downhill from there. I’ve once again added my “see also” recommendations but (with some individual exceptions) don’t feel as much passion for them as with previous decades. This was also the decade where I remember browsing through Blockbuster Video’s previously-viewed selection and walking away...

That’s not to say there were not some great movies made after 1995. It’s just that overall, as you’ll see, this is when Hollywood stopped making ‘em like they used to. Of course, compared to today, 1999 looks like 1939. Let’s begin…
Nolte: What Should’ve Won the Best Picture Oscar – 1970 to 1979 22 Apr 2021 In part six of this series we look at the movies that should have won the Best Picture Oscar between 1970 and 1979. By 1970 the old studio system and the Production Code were officially dead, the New Hollywood-era was in full bloom, and what an era it was. As you will see below, the swingin’ seventies produced classic after classic, and although many were filled with R-rated content, they were almost old-fashioned in their morality, especially when it came to one of this decade’s overriding themes: the importa...
