If you’re anything like me, I find physical media to be an invaluable part of the movie-loving experience. Digital streaming is great in a pinch, but the video and audio quality is generally worse than DVD and especially Blu-ray. Personally speaking, I am on a quest to collect all of the Oscar winners for Best Picture on Blu-ray and DVD, and I know there are others like me.
That’s why I’ve created this list of all the Best Picture winners currently available on home video, which I will continue updating weekly. I have links to each version currently available on Amazon, including special editions, digibooks, box sets, and in a few cases, 4K Ultra HD.
Happy shopping!
