"Tom Jones" was awarded the "Best Picture" statuette at the 1964 Academy Awards. I guess the film hasn't aged well, because I just watched it in the year 2010 and thought it was rubbish. There are a few chuckles here and there, but nothing especially winning or praiseworthy. I am of the opinion that a "great" film should continue to be great 10, 20, 50 years after its release. Unfortunately, I didn't see the merit of "Tom Jones". The cast was annoying and it mostly felt like a waste of time.
