2. The Godfather Supporting Cast

The Godfather picked up many Academy Awards in its time, including Best Picture. However, the incredible supporting cast ended up being snubbed. Al Pacino, James Caan, and Robert Duvall were all nominated for Best Supporting Actor for their work on the film. The award went to Joel Grey for Cabaret, awarding him for a role which he had already played on Broadway before the film adaptation. It’s hard to imagine a world where none of the Corleone sons were worthy of an Oscar.
