The two real individuals mentioned by name in the titles of 1990s Best Picture Oscar winners, are Oskar Schindler and William Shakespeare. Oskar Schindler is featured in “Schindler’s List,” directed by Steven Spielberg, which won the Academy Award for Best Picture in 1993. The film is based on the true story of Schindler, a German industrialist who saved the lives of more than a thousand mostly Polish-Jewish refugees during the Holocaust by employing them in his factories.

William Shakespeare is the subject of “Shakespeare in Love,” directed by John Madden, which won the Academy Award for Best Picture in 1998. This film is a romantic period comedy-drama that portrays a fictional love affair involving playwright William Shakespeare at the time he was writing the play “Romeo and Juliet.” The film mixes historical facts with creative storytelling to explore the artistic process of the famed playwright. Both films not only achieved critical acclaim but also highlighted the impactful stories of these two historical figures from vastly different contexts and periods.
