The Oscars

Entertainment

A complete list of all Oscar-winning movies, with all the&nbsp;films that&nbsp;ever won and the number of Academy Awards that each of the winners&nbsp;took home. If a movie is on this list, then rest-assured, it is one of the <a href="http://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/the-best-movies-of-all-time?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">best films ever made</a>. Every year, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences recognizes Hollywood filmmakers for various achievements within the industry. Some years, a small handful of highly-recognized films sweep a majority of the awards&mdash;think Titanic&nbsp;and The English Patient&mdash;but other years, the awards are spread out and several films win one or two Oscars in various categories.&nbsp;The number of Oscars that any given film wins has to do with how good the film is, but can also be determined by luck, release date, the mood of the Academy members, and the quality of the other films that were released that year.

This list of Academy Award winning movies is ordered by the number of statues each of these films brought home, so you can easily glance and see which films have won the most awards. It also lists the awards each film won&nbsp;and highlights those awards which are most coveted, the so-called Big Five Oscars: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, and Best Screenplay.&nbsp;Only three movies in history have won all of the Big Five Academy Awards.&nbsp;These films are The Silence of the Lambs (1991), One Flew Over the Cuckoo&#39;s Nest (1975), and It Happened One Night (1931). Based on their successes, these films should be at the top at any film buff&#39;s must-see list.

To many, the Academy Award, also known as the Oscar, is considered the most prestigious award in Hollywood. The awards are given to individuals for their various roles within the production of their films. Somebody involved in all the&nbsp;films listed won an Oscar. For people who worked on these award-winning movies, the recognition is a career changer, and for a movie it can mean a surge in additional profits at the box office.

Although American cinema can be visually and intellectually stimulating, it certainly has it's drawbacks. We are, after all, the country responsible for shooting and filming Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2.

Two Rossellini films also made the cut:&nbsp;Open City, and&nbsp;Stromboli, which starred his wife, Ingrid Bergman.&nbsp;Almadovar’s controversial Tie Me Up!

The very wealthy hold a place in society that allows them to act as supervillains if they so choose, providing money to cover up wrongdoing or&nbsp;push a political agenda incompatible with the existence of the poor. There are even those <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/millionaire-slayers/lea-rose-emery" target="_blank">very rich folk who&nbsp;off&nbsp;people</a> in an effort to appease their god complexes brought on by having enough money to buy and sell life as they see fit, expecting no repercussions due to their ability to afford the best in defense lawyers. It&#39;s no big leap then to see <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/wealthy-people-who-are-basically-supervillains/jacob-shelton" target="_blank">the 1% portrayed as villains</a> in horror movies like&nbsp;Ready or Not, The Purge, and&nbsp;a plethora of other films released over the last 50 or 60 years.

Sometimes the cruelty is the point with these villains, as illustrated in&nbsp;The People Under the Stairs,&nbsp;and other times the insatiable lust for power moves the&nbsp;rich to unspeakable means to justify their end goals. Other times, a clear inability to understand the feelings of a different socioeconomic class pushes their ignorance into villainous territory, as seen in&nbsp;Candyman. Their inability to see the less fortunate as people is the root of their villainy as they create&nbsp;deadly games with the lives of others in order to feed their own egos and line their pockets further.

'Cuz This Is Thriller

Thrillers

It&#39;s time to vote on the best new thriller films. Audiences have long enjoyed the pleasure of going to a movie for suspense and excitement. Modern thriller movies have raised the bar on doing just that. The past few years have delivered some of the most original, groundbreaking entries the genre has ever known. Thrillers work for a very primal reason. They put us into a state of tension for two hours. We tense up. We hold our breath. We grip the armrests. Then, in&nbsp;the end, there&#39;s typically some kind of big catharsis that allows us to relax. You get a bit of a rush from that, and modern thriller movies know how to play the audience like a violin.

Current thrillers come in many forms. Some are entirely plausible. Some make use of historical events. Others mesh the entire thriller concept with another genre. Some are&nbsp;part top thriller and&nbsp;part horror movie. That kind of flexibility has allowed the genre to grow in compelling, heart-pounding ways. It&#39;s no wonder these movies are more popular than ever.

Vote up&nbsp;your favorites from this list of recent&nbsp;thriller movies.
