Letterboxd Showdown: Robbed

I decided I had to have seen the year's Best Picture Winner to be sure the film was robbed. Even though there are many cases where I can guess.

It's also pretty common that the best picture of the year was not even nominated for best picture.

So these are the nominees for best picture which I prefer over the chosen best picture, ranked by the gulf between them and the film that beat them.
