Agreed!! "English Patient" an absolute snorer!! All concerned should have to sit through continuous showings of "Dr. Zhivago"--- a TRULY "romantic" film.....and far more deserving of Oscar note. Joe

They are frequently an emotional response by the members of the Academy who are unable to compartmentalize their emotions from their intellect, and so you get results that are not necessarily in line with truly award-caliber films.
