	What about "Seventh Heaven" and "Two Arabian Knights"?

	Those two won in 1927, when there was no official "best picture" because the category was divided up into a comedy category and a drama category. I did just add them as bonus answers though.

	you should change the title to this quiz because it reads like we have to name the films when in fact you ask for the directors

	Good quiz, though I would give less time

	This is a good idea for a quiz but the central theme of the quiz does not contribute to answering the questions. The quiz would be exactly the same if you just said "name the director of Traffic" "name the director of Saving Private Ryan" etc? I think if you didn't tell us the films it would be a better quiz. Just give us the years and have us name the films.
