Man cinema is magical, it's wasted on a generation (or rather generations) that does nothing but shit on movies for clicks. Also kinda weird to see many of these 70s and 80s actors as utter wrecks on Redlettermedia.

In the past, an Oscar-winning film guaranteed something extraordinary, unforgettable, something you would return to years later... Today, unfortunately, it's politics/ideology/political correctness and bad films.

1990 - Jeremy Irons (Reversal of Fortune)
Emilia Perez is a f joke to the world
1991 - Anthony Hopkins (The Silence of the Lambs)

Marlon Brando ignited a seismic shift in performance artistry, infusing the screen with raw, pulsating verisimilitudeโa stark revelation against the gilded artifice of his predecessors, vividly captured in this footage

I like the evolution of the movie. Back then most of the movie scenes look obvious that they were acting,didnt look natural. Throughout the decades, the scenes evolve and most of great movies gave us sonething natural.
2003 - Sean Penn (Mystic River)
2004 - Jamie Foxx (Ray)
The oscars went to shit after 2014/15
Not only has acting and movies become shit, that whole industry is shit, filled with corrupt sacks of shit
When all these so-called great actors were nothing but a bunch of enablers and did nothing to help with the weinstein scandal, and were kissing his ass, even DDL, fuckin disappointed in these actors so hard.
And then the Chris Rock incident which was fucking shameful.
I dont give a fuck how much of a great actor you are or how entertaining you are, if your human values are shit, you're a piece of shit and i will never support that.
2005 - Philip Seymour Hoffman (Capote)
2006 - Forest Whitaker (The Last King of Scotland)

2008 - Sean Penn (Milk)
Why are the nominees smudged out in 67th?

I think that the greatest winners started in the 90s. There were only great performances after that decade. Except maybe one or two exceptions.
