Description: Awards season has once again come to CineFix and this year to celebrate the Oscars we’re looking at the best of the best. Because, like the Academy Awards, we here at CineFix have an impeccable record of always picking the objectively best films for our lists, we’re going category by category to check Oscar’s work. Here are our picks for the Top 10 Best Oscar Winners of All Time. Whether or not the oscars televise every category, there’s no higher achievement than bringing home that little gold statue. For editors on films like Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King or Mad Max: Fury Road, to the cinematographers awarded for their work on Apocalypse Now, 1917 or classic film noir like The Third Man, the screenwriters of everything from The Apartment to Pulp Fiction, the award can make a career even if they’re not as glamorous as the acting and directing awards. And most importantly the award for Best Movie List script goes to Billy Jackson and Best Editing in a Movie List or Long Form Film Analysis goes to Justin Donaldson. Without any further ado… The oscar goes to… 10 - Best Editing - All That Jazz - Alan Heim 9 - Best Supporting Actor - The Dark Knight - Heath Ledger as The Joker 8 - Best Screenplay - Citizen Kane - Herman J.
