We're wading into one of the most controversial Oscar years with the 71st Academy Awards or the films of 1998. There were 5 nominees this year, but we added three more and brought in our two fun winners from the last episode to make this a 10 film 2-parter.

The nominees were: Elizabeth, Life is Beautiful, Saving Private Ryan, Shakespeare in Love, and The Thin Red Line.

The films we added were: The Big Lebowski, The Truman Show, and Waking Ned Devine.

Our fun winners were: Rushmore and Ever After.

Note: SPOILERS - we talk through the full plots of all the movies we cover.
