Well 1995 was the rare year when a foreign language film actually was nominated for best picture (Il Postino), and my logic was that if a film could be nominated for a best picture, then it could technically win.

Now I would have possibly listed Dead Man, at least as a nominee, but based on how many US critics had it on their 1996 lists, I was unsure whether or not it would have qualified for 1995 Oscar consideration, not like Jim Jarmusch is going to EVER be nominated for an Oscar. Anyways after seeing Alibi, and being enormously impressed with it, I'm off to Facets to get as many other best picture nominees as I can.
