We are moving into the 21st Century and discussing all the Oscar movies for the year 2001!! We were really excited to talk about the best picture nominations:

  • Gosford Park
  • In the Bedroom
  • Fellowship of the Ring
  • Moulin Rouge
  • A Beautiful Mind

Plus a few other categories we felt needed to be added to the Oscar list like Comedy Gold, The Independent Darling, and The Sequel of the Year!

This week we deep dive into the casting decisions of Fellowship of the Ring and the many actors considered for the different roles, and talk about some controversial choices for Independent Darling, and announce the the movie so bad we awarded it Comedy Lead, because it is the opposite of Comedy Gold! 

Want to be part of the excitement, listen and find out who we think could have been added to the Best Picture list! Was the Academy right?  Do you agree with our correct assessments? Listen and find out!  Don't forget to follow us on any of the major social media at theretrospodcast.
