The Shaw family is on an epic quest to find out which of the Oscar Best Picture winners stands above them all. They’re watching every Academy Award Best Picture Winning film; each episode features two films that share a common thread, pitted against one another in single-elimination. The winner advances to the next round; the loser goes home. It’s a Battle Royale; it’s a Tournament of Champions; it’s March Madness… but with movies. Join Darren, Kendall, Sam, and Ben Shaw (and the occasional special guest) as they get together to talk about what they’ve seen, share some fun film facts, and posit all their opinions - whether educated or completely unfounded. By the time it’s all through, there will be a winner (obviously, There can Only be One): The One Film to Rule them All. The Best of the Best. The Bestest Picture.

It’s been another little while, but Bestest Picture is back AGAIN, baby! And this episode gets into some classic conflicts: We’ve got Cops pitted against Crime, Boston versus New York, Quick Cut editing and Slick Choreography versus Slow Burn Cinema and Standing in the Snow on a Street Corner All Night Watching a Hotel Front Door.
Oh... there’s also a car chasing a train.
Yup, Bestest Picture is taking it to the mean streets for two Best Picture-Winning crime dramas: THE DEPARTED from 2007 and THE FRENCH CONNECTION from 1972.
Join Sam and Darren as they talk it all through to arrive at a decision about which of these Best Pictures is today’s “Bestest.”
