15. Crash

Crash is another movie that was criticized for its Oscar nominations. The reason was that the movie tackled racism patronizingly and depicted an openly racist officer as the most sympathetic one. The movie’s win in the Best Picture category at the 2006 Awards is now considered one of the most controversial wins in awards history. Worse, it won against Brokeback Mountain, which is a revolutionary movie regarding LGBTQ+ representation.
