I didn't hate The English Patient as much as Elaine Benes, but I am questioning why it won Best Picture. This film is long, drawn-out and fairly boring. Yes, it has great production value, but the story isn't as compelling as it thinks it is, and I couldn't identify with any of the characters.

I think the 1996 Best Picture award should have gone to Jerry Maguire or Fargo, instead.
