There is nothing like a good comedy to help you forget about your troubles. It’s surprising how few comedies have won an Oscar for Best Picture in the last decade. In an effort to see what comedies have actually won an Oscar, required a little bit of digging.
Here we go!!
Academy Award Winning: Best Picture Comedies [1)
1999–American Beauty
1998–Shakespeare In Love
1994–Forest Gump
1989–Driving Miss Daisy
1977–Annie Hall
1975–One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest
1973–The Sting
1964–My Fair Lady
1963–Tom Jones
1960– The Apartment
1958–GiGi
1957– Around The World In Eighty Days
What is fascinating from this research? Over the last decade there’s not been one comedy to win an Oscar since 1999.[2] It seems ever since the recession fewer comedies are being produced in Hollywood. Why is that? Do people see fewer comedies when times are hard? What are your favorite comedic films over the last decade (2000-2010) and why?
