Aside from a whole lot of Oscars, that is.
It's quite common to see certain movies "sweep" the Academy Awards and take home a bevy of trophies in one night. However, it's very rare to see a motion picture score 10 or more Oscar wins. Per a March 2023 Variety piece, only four movies in history have managed to secure 10 or more Oscar wins. One member of that quartet is the original 1961 version of West Side Story, which won exactly 10 Academy Awards.
RELATED: From 'Dune' to 'The Lord of the Rings': 10 Oscar-Winning Production Designs That Had the Best World-Building There’s plenty of historical precedence for why the Academy Awards voters would gravitate toward making the Best Picture winner an entry in the epic film genre. Meanwhile, the trio of movies with the most Oscar wins reflects how epic films have a great advantage over other types of cinema in terms of just how many Academy Awards they can secure. The lavish production values baked into the very form of the epic make it a shoo-in to win technical awards.
These Three Movies Did Very Well at the Box Office Something else all three movies share? They were massive box office hits when they first hit theaters. Money doesn’t automatically equal Oscar winner, because if it did, Paul Blart: Mall Cop would have way more Academy Awards than Nomadland. However, a movie resonating with the public to such a degree that box office records get shattered can put a title on the radar of Oscar voters and reinforce a sense of “importance” to an Oscar darling.
