What Was the Biggest Oscar Upset of All Time?

With "The Artist" monopolizing Oscar predictions this year, there's bound to be at least one upset. But hey, that's how it goes. The Academy Awards are usually pretty accurate, but with 83 years under its belt, it's bound to kick up dust now and again. That's not to say controversial wins are necessarily wrong choices, either. Sometimes they simply have to pick between two great films and risk the offense.

Take the 2002 battle for Best Picture and Best Director, for example: Roman Polanksi's "The Pianist" and Rob Marshall's "Chicago" were both excellent films by any standards. However, perhaps due to his past, Polanski's win for Best Director was considered an upset. Other upsets take some time to recognize. When "Citizen Kane" lost Best Picture in 1941 it wasn't a huge deal, but now that it's considered the greatest film of all time, the loss seems like an obscenity.

We couldn't possibly include all of the upsets that have occurred over the years, especially since so much of this is completely relative -- in fact you might disagree with some of the options -- but we put together a list of some well-known upsets and provided you with one of those coveted "Other" options. Tell us which Oscar win upset you the most!
