They are both superior, but in different ways.
Annie Hall is a writers and actors showcase. Star Wars is the greater technical achievement and a perfect SciFi Space fantasy.
This is why I don't like awards. I hate having to pit movies ike this against one another. It's completley unfair. They are each perfect in their own way.
On another note, I saw a column earlier today where the writer was advocating that Hollywood should award more "commercial" films to make the Oscars more accessible the the mainstream
I think that would be a huge mistake. I like the fact that for the most part Oscar has been more "snobbish" when it comes to the huge commercial blockbusters.
