As much as we enjoy the Academy Awards, there's no denying they've made an awful lot of mistakes over the years, frequent errors in judgement which resulted in films now regarded as all-time classics failing to win any of the major Oscars. Stuff like Vera Drake and The Color Purple. Directors and stars are also frequently overlooked, from Hitchcock and Scorsese to Richard Burton and Glenn Close. That doesn't mean we can't still enjoy their movies, though.
