I have to add my two cents here - in my opinion there are two absolutely egregious acting Oscar snubs that still make me shake my head. The first would be Gwyneth Paltrow winning for SIL over Cate Blanchett's riveting performance in Elizabeth. That was INSANE. And secondly, and to me this is the worst, is Robert Deniro winning for Scent Of A Woman over Denzel Washington's transcendent portrayal of Malcolm X. Robert Deniro spent half the film making that annoying "Hoowaa!" noise and doing a good job, but absolutely nothing extraordinary. Denzel BECAME Malcolm X and gave one of the best on-screen performances I have ever seen in a bio that was also VERY unfairly snubbed by the academy overall. I think that Paltrow and Pacino are both fine actors, but these accolades weren't deserved, in my opinion.

Reply from Richard Roeper So true. That's a film that keeps climbing the "Greatest Movies of All Time" lists as the years go by...
