Oscar is fair or not?

Rating: 1/10 (22 July 1999)

I always thought oscar was fair and I agreed with all the awards given until Life is Beautiful got the Best Score(Drama) Award this year. I have watched all the five nominees and have also bought all the five OSTs. Life is Beautiful's music, when compared with the other four, is clearly not the best, or even for me, the worst of the five. I was shocked when Life is Beautiful got the award 'cause in my mind, The score of The Thin Red Line is the best. I wonder if the judges did listen to all the five OSTs before making their decisions........ or is there really some bias.....?
