Basterds should have won that year for the opening scene and the bar scene alone. Two of the best dialogue driven scenes that end in an explosion of violence.

I'm totally okay with No Country winning. It's a perfect film. It just so happened to go up with another perfect film. I can't fault the Academy for this one. It's so damn close.

Excellently made movie with a daft storyline.

I don't get this one. TWBB is one of the tightest screenplays I've ever seen put to film. It spans years of time without having a single scene of filler. The first 20 minutes are dialogue free and still tell the story of not only how Daniel started his career in oil but also how he came to be a father...without dialogue. Daniel was too powerful to just be murdered. He also invented ways to get oil out of the ground. Your best bet was to partner with him or t least try to stay clear of his way. There is no murdering a man that powerful in that time period. Not an oil man. The movie is a materpiece.
