Here's ByClaytonDavis' ranking of the 17 best sports movies nominated for best picture, from 'Rocky' to 'Raging Bull':
The Oscars love a sprawling biopic, an underdog character and a triumphant tale marred by obstacles and resulting in success. Those themes have marked the sports genre since the creation of cinema. In the Academy Awards’ history, 591 movies have been nominated for best picture, with 95 winners named among them.
Boxing movies have always felt like their own separate entity from the standard sports movies. The most audience-friendly and awards successful sport in film, boxing films often follow the same trope, “It’s about the fight both inside and outside the ring.” . The Academy has ignored some of the best sports movies. Notable snubs and worthy entrants include the delightful women’s baseball comedy “A League of Their Own” from Penny Marshall, and the criminally underappreciated debut film from Gina Prince-Bythewood, “Love & Basketball” . Even the coming-of-age documentary feature “Hoop Dreams” from Steve James was infamously overlooked in its category, while the supremely popular “Hoosiers” went sadly unnoticed.
