err ok hang on everybody, the author of this article did not make any mistakes as he clearly states this concerns only the oscars for BEST PICTURE which indeed none of these films won.

“Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon” actually won an Oscar for the best foreign language film.

The Shawshank Redemption did not win any Oscars, I believe, because it was released the same year as the movie Titanic, which swept it across the board. Some of the above probably have a similar story, if you look into it.

What about 2001: A Space Odyssey…did not receve the Oscar for Makeup, because the reviewers believed the apes in it were real, rather than human, instead it went to Planet of the Apes….because it had humans in it, pretending to be apes, and it showed….!
It also missed out on the Best Picture…who can remember the Best Picture for 1968??

Sucky title. A lot of these films *did* win Academy Awards, so the title should have been “10 Best Movies That Didn’t Win A Best Picture Oscar”. *sigh*

Fight Club, should be on this list.
If I had a chance to pick one to go it would be Its a Wonderful Life, because of all the horrible sappy spin off copies (except for the Married With Children one) it created that crowd out all other content at Chistmas.

Agreed with nu. 2 The Shawshank Redemption. Like that movie very much, watch it few times on HBO without boring.

Star Wars did in fact win several oscars, some other fanboy will certainly double-check your other listings.
