Note: The 1987 Best Picture winner was Italian director/co-screenwriter Bernardo Bertolucci's Oscar-sweeping, big-budget, technically-brilliant film, The Last Emperor (with nine nominations and nine wins!), filmed both in Italy and China with a cast of thousands. The spectacular historical epic, shot in China's Forbidden City (the first ever), dramatized the life of Pu Yi (played as an adult by John Lone), China's last Manchu dynasty emperor (beginning at the age of three) who was deposed only three years later, and used by the Japanese to be the puppet ruler of Manchukuo. The film featured 19,000 extras and 9,000 costumes.

The visually-striking film's nine Oscar awards included: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Cinematography, Best Art/Set Direction, Best Sound, Best Original Score, Best Film Editing, and Best Costume Design - but the Best Picture film did not have a single nomination in any of the acting categories. Another Best Picture film, the musical Gigi (1958), also scored nine Oscars from nine nominations. Bertolucci's win as Best Director (his first) was for his second nomination as Best Director (he was first nominated as Best Director for Last Tango in Paris (1973)). The film's nine Oscar wins was the largest victory since West Side Story (1961) - with ten wins.
