  1. I never counted the number of Best Picture winners I saw and was shocked I was up over 50.

    I hadn't seen a lot of the Helen Mirren films you all cited, but was shocked you didn't do Excalibur. That's the first film that springs to mind when I think of her and was one of my favorites growing up. Mirren's Morgana is so fun, especially when she's playing off Merlin.

    Great show as always!
