Personally I think a movie good enough to win best picture should be capable of picking up an award in another major category. I think it’s also possible for a movie to win one of those other awards so hard it also wins best picture
I just don’t think there are many movies that deserve best picture but don’t deserve a win in another category
Then what do you suppose the point of all those having their own award category is?
Best Picture is for Best Picture. It might be best in more than one category or none of them and nonetheless be the best work in its entirety.
In an ideal system, anyways, but this discussion hardly matters when the title is for sale.
