In general, the Oscars are the same as other film awards ceremonies and are usually predictable. Generally speaking, well-known actors will have greater willingness to win awards. But sometimes the Oscar jury goes their own way. Here's the most surprising Oscar result ever.
<h1>Marissa Tomei</h1>
In 1993, when everyone and even pundits thought Vanessa Redgrave had won best supporting actress. Marissa Tomei unexpectedly won. She played a hard-spoken New Jersey girlfriend in the comedy My Cousin Vinny. Many thought her performance was too light and not even worthy of nomination. There are even rumors that the host Jack Parrance accidentally mispronounced the name.
<h1>Bob Fox</h1>
In 1973, Bob Fox beat Francis Ford Coppola's The Godfather with "Cabaret Cabret" to become best director. Fox looked back disappointedly: The Godfather has stood the test of time and become a true classic. The Godfather was #2 of IMDb's 250 films of all time, but voters on the day preferred musicals and rogue blacks.
<h1>Paul Haggis</h1>
At the 2006 Academy Awards, when everyone thought the best picture should be Ang Lee's gay romance film "Brokeback Mountain", the award was announced to the race relations drama "Crash Crash". Afterwards, many people expressed dissatisfaction with the results. Even Crash's director, Paul Haggis, openly admitted in 2015 that it wasn't the right choice that year.
<h1>Barbara Streisand</h1>
In 1969, there were two winners in the Best Actress category: Barbara Streisand of Funny Girl and Katherine Hepburn of Winter Lion. Since Hepburn did not attend the ceremony. So, Streisand was the only winner to receive an accredited speech.
<h1> How Green Was My Valley</h1>
Many film scholars consider Citizen Kane to be the greatest film of all time. Ranked 66th in the top 250 films on the IMDb charts. The 1942 Oscar jury disagreed. They voted for "How Green Was My Valley" for Best Film. Orson Wells' Citizen Kane won only the Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay.
<h1>Anna Paqui</h1>
In 1994, four well-known actors were nominated for Best Supporting Actress: Rosie Perez (Fearless), Winona Ryder (The Innocent Years), Emma Thompson (father's name) and Holly Hunt (Black Giant Enterprise). When 11-year-old Anna Paquin beat everyone to best supporting actress in "Piano Competition," everyone was stunned.
