Get ready for another Movie That Does Not Exist – except evidence of this week\u2019s film is provided in one of the most iconic EW Fall Movie Preview covers! Yes, in 1999 Random Hearts<\/i> promised us sexy Harrison Ford and Kristin Scott Thomas in a pool and instead it gave us… a creepy dry hump sequence in a car and a lot of lethargic half-musings on infidelity, politics, and grief. Not to mention breakdowns in department stores and a comical litany of familiar faces in tiny roles.<\/p>\n

The film follows a cop and a senatorial candidate who begin a relationship after their cheating spouses die in a plane crash, and it\u2019s as much of a bummer as you might expect. Despite the pedigree (including Hollywood legend Sydney Pollack in the director\u2019s chair) was a box office and critical bomb long forgotten come Oscar nomination morning.<\/p>\n

This week, we take a look at the 1999 Oscar race and imagine what a Best Picture Ten might have looked like. We also discuss Ford\u2019s shockingly anemic Oscar history and potential contractual obligations for his famous earring.<\/p>\n
