What's your favorite Best Picture winning movie?

If you're not familiar with which movies are Best Picture winners, here are some examples you've probably seen.

IMO: Forest Gump

Honorable Mentions: Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, No Country for Old Men

LotR: Return of the King.

runners up: Gladiator.

Looking at a list of winners, I can say there's been a lot of mistakes over the years.

Favorite: Rocky

Runners Up: Gladiator, Silence of the Lambs, LotR: RotK

The Godfather - Part II. What a hell of a movie. It's a shame that this masterpiece is obscured by its (also excellent) predecessor.

Godfather parts 1 and 2, Return of The King, Argo and Gladiator.

One Flew over The Cuckoo's Nest

Casablanca.

Silence of the Lambs

One flew over the cuckoo's nest

LOTR is the best always.

The God Father 2 & 1, Forest Gump, Rocky, Unforgiven, Gandhi, Schindler's List, Dances with wolves, Lawrence of Arabia, One flew over the cuckoo's nest, The french connection, Gladiator, Braveheart, Million dollar baby, No country for old men, The departed and Hamlet.

Gump, RotK, Rocky are just awesome the rest are meh

I still cry watching Titanic for the 9th time.

It Happened One Night and Annie Hall for me though. Also Ben-Hur.

I also love The Godfather movies and the LOTR movies. I love most Best Picture winning movies but I can say that most of the winners were wrong like Rocky over Taxi Driver, Gandhi over E.T, How Green Was My Valley over Citizen Kane and The French Connection over A Clockwork Orange etc.

LOTR.

Braveheart, Dances with Wolves and The Return of the King.

The Godfather. Greatest film ever made.

The Apartment or The Godfather Part II.

Platoon

No Country

I always take L's, my favorite movies rarely get picked every year.

Favorite: As a Philadelphian, Rocky is more than a movie.
