The Oscars

The most recent movie I've watched that won an Oscar for Best Picture is American Beauty, which won in 1999.  The last movie I actually saw in the theater that went on to in the Oscar for Best Picture was Driving Miss Daisy in 1989.

I did, inexplicably, see Ghandi when it was in the theater.  I was in the 5th grade, and while in class got a message that I was needed in the office.  Usually this meant there was a death in the family; in this case, it was worse - my Dad was pulling me and Brothatime!! from school to go endure three hours of Ghandi.  Fucking hell.
