Oscar “Best Picture” Retrospective – 2007 (video)

Last Updated on July 30, 2021

In this recurring series we take a look at the Oscar nominations of years past, examining the flicks that were nominated, as well as the pic we feel got snubbed among all the other candidates. Love 'em or hate 'em, the Oscars usually highlight the best films from each year (although there are plenty that get overlooked) and it's always fun to look back and see what was popular for any given year and to contemplate their legacy in retrospect. This time we take a look at 2007's nominees (for movies made in 2006), including BABEL, THE QUEEN, LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE, LETTERS FROM IWO JIMA and THE DEPARTED.

2007 Nominees (for films released in 2006):

– THE QUEEN
– BABEL
– LETTERS FROM IWO JIMA
– THE DEPARTED
– LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE

Winner: THE DEPARTED

Snub: PAN'S LABYRINTH
