Welcome!

Hi there!

We're Doug and Paul - boyfriends with a passion for film. We decided that we wanted a project, and the idea of watching all the winners of the Academy Award for Best Picture in order would suit the bill.

That's 90 years of film winning, beginning in 1927 with a black-and-white silent film, and ending up right now in 2017 where 'Moonlight' has just taken the prize.

We'll be rating them out of 10, choosing a highlight and a lowlight, and discussing some of the central themes of the film, looking at each movie's social & political background, and working out whether we think they've lasted well over the years since winning.

So without further ado - let's get started. Rewind back to 1927 with 'Wings'.
