Oscars: Best Picture Winning Movies That No One Remembers Anymore (24/7 Tempo)

"Being named the very best movie released that year – chosen by the Academy as a nominee, and then winning out over the stiff competition – is a surefire ticket to film immortality. As it turns out, some Best Picture winners, from both the distant and not-so-distant past, have been all but forgotten. Best Picture is oftentimes the most contentious and fraught of all major Oscar categories. Sometimes, the film that wins Best Picture is the one that everyone's expecting: the film that wasn't only a massive success, but also universally beloved by critics and audiences. Sometimes, a movie wins that simply doesn't stand the test of time. Some of the films on this list are simply so old that time has passed them by; some older films are not generally regarded to be all-time classics. Some simply weren't seen by too many people upon their release, and have since faded from memory. But for whatever reason, folks have largely forgotten about these Best Picture winners." - 247tempo.com
