Oppenheimer is the 24th “powerful” winner of the Best Picture Oscar and the ninth this century according to Nielsen Gracenote’s mood analysis of Oscar winners.
• Oppenheimer is the first “powerful” Best Picture winner since the ‘uplifting’ (and ‘poignant’) Green Book five years ago. It is the ninth “powerful” winner this century. The only other level 1 Gracenote mood with more than three winners in the 21st century is “emotional”, with seven.
• Fifteen of the 25 films to win Best Picture in the 21st century have been primarily “powerful”, “emotional” or both according to Gracenote’s analysis.
• The 1940s is the only full decade in the history of the Academy Awards without a “powerful” winner of Best Picture.
• According to Gracenote’s mood taxonomy, “emotional” films are the second most successful in the Best Picture category with 22 winners, most recently CODA two years ago. “Tense” movies are third with 15 winners, but none since 2013, followed by “fun” with 13.
• Gladiator (2001), A Beautiful Mind (2002), Lord of the Rings: Return of the King (2004), Slumdog Millionaire (2009), The Hurt Locker (2010), The King’s Speech (2011), Spotlight (2016) and Green Book (2019) are the previous “powerful” Best Picture Oscar winners of the 21st century.
• Oppenheimer’s “powerful” moods are ‘gripping’ and ‘epic’. The nine previous Best Picture Oscar winners whose most important moods included ‘gripping’ are Cavalcade (1934), From Here To Eternity (1954), The Bridge On The River Kwai (1958), A Man For All Seasons (1967), Midnight Cowboy (1970), Patton (1971), Gladiator (2001), The Hurt Locker (2010) and Spotlight (2016).
• The five previous ‘epic’ Best Picture Oscar winners are The Bridge On The River Kwai (1958), Ben-Hur (1960), Lawrence Of Arabia (1963), Dances With Wolves (1991) and Lord of the Rings: Return of the King (2004).
• Oppenheimer is also ‘contemplative’, ‘tense’ and ‘bold’ according to Gracenote’s classification of the film’s less important moods. Gracenote’s video descriptors identify All About Eve (1951), No Country For Old Men (2008) and Parasite (2020) as previous ‘contemplative’ Best Picture Oscar winners. All About Eve und Parasite are both ‘contemplative’ and ‘tense’. Lawrence of Arabia (1963)and Braveheart (1996) included ‘bold’ amongst their most important moods
Anmerkung: Sinnlich ist in der obigen Tabelle nicht enthalten, da bei keinem der für den besten Film nominierten Filme die Hauptstimmung in die Gruppe der sinnlichen Filme fällt.
