Worst of the Oscar Best Pictures
8 September 1998
I considered "The Broadway Melody" to be a very boring movie, the worst movie to be honored with Best Picture. This may well have to do with watching a movie made 70 years ago, realizing that today's movies are a totally different animal than they were in our grandparents (or great -grandparents) day. The acting lacks imagination and passion, WITH the exception of Bessie Love's crying/laughing scene in the last half of the film. Outside of that very impressive bit of acting which I considered to be downright amazing and outstanding, this is one forgettable piece of cinematic history.
