It was foolish to have any ounce of hope to begin with but if Farewell My Concubine had any shot of breaking through anywhere, I think it would've been here.

🙏🙏 *Sigh of relief* Well, at least The #1 Best Film of 1993 (and one of the ten best of the 90's), won one of these damn awards! Never had a chance at BP, but I will NEVER forgive you fuckers for the Altman snub for a nomination! 🤬

Cool with half of the nominees winning here, Thewlis included.

Correct choice, also why Bassett was never overdue.

OMG!! 🤩🤩 This is a fantastic win I am genuinely SHOCKED by!! I thought i was gonna be one of the few votes for it. It is 100% the very best Original Screenplay of 1993.

Thewlis was terrific, and robbed of a nod at the Oscars, but Hopkins was 100% ROBBED of this win. Imho, his is probably THE PERFORMANCE OF THE YEAR, male or female. THE FATHER should have been his 3rd Oscar win.

I prefer Jurassic, but Schindler's is still incredibly worthy.

SHORT CUTS will always be the #1 for me, but SCHINDLER is not only a strong #2, but literally one of the only 2 BP winners of the 90's that can be legitimately called a MASTERPIECE or even a great film (THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS is the other one).

Solid enough winners (even though that Song winner is a bit rank).

OMG!! 🤩🤩 This is a fantastic win I am genuinely SHOCKED by!! I thought i was gonna be one of the few votes for it. It is 100% the very best Original Screenplay of 1993. I figured it would be a surprise, so I put it towards the end. With the Addams Family twofer up front as the only tie in history that is acceptable, I could sandwich in all of the obvious JP and SL wins. I am mostly very happy with the results. JP got half of what it deserved - although I personally voted for it in picture, director, ensemble, and production design - but I'm good with what it got... except for choreography, which is VERY good but it's no Iron Monkey. Thewlis, Fiennes and the Addams girls are pretty great. True Romance winning was a delight. I can't think of a single category where I am not happy with what won. Well, I'm not too big on Holly Hunter, but she isn't *bad.* She's just shrug-worthy.
