1993 was a hell of a year for movies. Which means that 30 years ago, at the 1994 Academy Awards, the Academy had its hands full as hell when deciding who to honor with those coveted little statues of golden men.
You had historical dramas, movies about cannibalism, dinosaurs, chess, skiing, alien abductions — honestly, even in those pre-streaming times there was a little something for everyone.
But when Oscar season rolled around, only an elite few had a chance at the biggest prize of the night. Which movie took home Best Picture in 1994?

Correct Answer: Schindler's List
The answer is: Schindler's List. 1993 was quite a year for Steven Spielberg, who was splitting time between directing Jurassic Park and Schindler's List.One of those movies became one of the highest-grossing movies of all time, and the other won the Oscar for Best Picture at the '94 Academy Awards (and Spielberg himself took home a statue for Directing). I guess it all worked out alright for him.Source
