The Best Best Picture Winners

Of course the movie that wins Best Picture isn't always the year's best picture. But it's an interesting set of films, and Kris Tapley has decided to present a list of his personal top 10 out of those winners. It's a difficult task. Of course I haven't seen lots of the winners, and I've forgotten large sections of some of the ones I've seen. But if I was picking a top half dozen out of the movies that have won Best Picture I'd go with Annie Hall, Casablanca, Silence of the Lambs, Schindler's List, Gone With the Wind, and Rebecca. C'mon - how can I not include the one directed by Hitchcock? Your thoughts?

I'll go with three of your six: Silence of the Lambs, Schindler's List, and Gone with the Wind. But I'll also add The Godfather Part II (yes, I prefer it to the original, although that is a good movie too!), The Deer Hunter (what can I say other than I love DeNiro and Walken's various Russian Roulette scenes are amazing?), and Rocky (I know, surprise, surprise, but it's not only a movie about boxing but it's also a love story about two very awkward people).
