Ignored

Not rewarded at all or enough:
Margot At The Wedding
3:10 To Yuma
The Assassination Of Jesse James By The Coward Robert Ford
There Will Be Blood
Zodiac
Lust, Caution

Rewards for the sake of rewards.
If you put every film that has ever won best picture in a list, you'd have one uneven goddamn list.
No Country For Old Men may just be the best of them.

The Last Emperor deserved it, Best Years Of Our Lives, David Lean's two. French Connection, One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest, Ghandi, Platoon. The rest I can't or won't vouch for. 9 out of 80. That's a pretty sloppy legacy, don't you think?
