There were many great films in 1985. However, the Academy decided to give its Best Picture Oscar to a long and sweeping epic that was touted as a romance for the ages. A film that had the beauty of a continent, A-list actors in Meryl Streep and Robert Redford, and it's love story. Out of Africa was a box-office blockbuster. However, many critics have felt that film's shine has tarnished over the years. Well, did it really deserve to win the top prize of that year?
Listen to film critic Jack Ferdman's take on it as he analyzes everything about Out of Africa, as well as many other films from that year, and hear which film he gives his Rewatch Oscar of 1985.
