Fight Club?

The only movie that came close was Magnolia. American Beauty deserved every award it got. I think Thin Red Line came out that year too.

lol

Because the Oscars are meaningless, how many times do I have to tell you?

Fun fact,...that's Alice Eve in the poster. Not Mena Suvari....

>ugly fiveheaded white bitch is Jesus
what did he man by this?

dumb fuck, it was Christian Hendricks who modeled for the poster.

Magnolia and Being John Malkovich were also very good frol that year. Thin Red Line was 98 and lost to Shakespeare in Love.
