maryjmartin Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 My favorite from 1968 is Oliver! I must agree with the Motion Picture Academy on this one. Other than that I'm not sure what movies came out when although I would pick the Wizard of Oz over Gone With the Wind for 1939. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
