Oh, good, it's not just me. The whole concept of this movie really pissed me off, and the fact that it won the Oscar for Best Picture over the far more deserving Saving Private Ryan was the nail in the coffin for the Academy Awards for me.

[(Anonymous)]

Oscar is a joke, none should care about it.

[(Anonymous)]

Well, yeah. But twenty years ago, if there was a movie nominated I'd actually seen, I found myself caring. After that? Not so much.

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, I felt just the opposite. By the time I saw Private Ryan it couldn't possibly live up to the hype and I was just blah on it. Shakespeare in Love was just charming to me. I still love it.

+1. I'm with you. Didn't care for Saving Private Ryan - much preferred The Thin Red Line, which I believe was the same year - and Shakespeare in Love felt like something different and, as you say, kind of charming. Sometimes I like it when the big bloated important Oscar bait movies don't actually take the prize.

[(Anonymous)]

AYRT -- Belatedly, I too preferred The Thin Red Line. I saw it once and thought I didn't like it, but it stuck in my head and I ended up going back twice. I thought it was a much better, less cliched, war movie.

And Shakespeare in Love was like having the perfect Pomeranian win Westminster. It was just really good at being what it was.

The movie it was up against that I was sad it won out over was Elizabeth.
