Crash

I think it’s pretty safe to claim that the worst winner of the 21st century is probably 2004’s Crash. It’s a weepy drama about how bad racism is. It has the beauty of the transportation network in New York City and won Oscars for editing and screenplay somehow. The film producer, Paul Haggis, didn’t even think it deserved the honor. He said in an interview, “was it year’s best film? I don’t think so.”

Gary Oldman

Gary Oldman won an Oscar. Most people are pleased with the legendary actor and think he played a perfect Winston Churchill portrayal in The Darkest Hour. Every day, he spent hours in the makeup chair studying the hell out of character. Yet, writing the script, coupled with his shout-y performance, gives us a heavier-handed Churchill depiction. It doesn’t suit when you put the performance to Daniel Kaluuya’s in Get Out or Daniel Day-Lewis’s in Phantom Thread.
