Oscars: 10 Non-English Language Movies That Deserved Best Picture

In 2020, the South Korean comedy thriller Parasite became the first non-English language movie ever to win the Oscar for Best Picture, but there have been plenty of exceptional foreign movies that the Academy have overlooked in their history. In its 95 years, the Academy Award for Best Picture has only gone to a non-English language movie once. This made some sense in the pioneering days of cinema, when the United States was the epicenter of technological and conventional advances, but the Academy has failed to reflect the global scope of cinema for too long.
