Highest-Grossing Best Picture Winners of the Last 50 Years (Stacker)

"No matter which movie ultimately takes home the prize, winning Best Picture at the Oscars can have tangible effects on a film's financial success. For an already commercially successful film, the award could be more of a symbolic legitimation of popular opinion. But for a smaller film, even being shortlisted for the award can provide a box office bump. Historically, Best Picture winners either start out successfully at the box office or get there with the awards season bump, though the advent of streaming platforms has shrunk that increase in recent years. To celebrate the impending Best Picture winner, Stacker compiled a ranking of the highest-grossing Best Picture winners of the last 50 years, using domestic box office gross from The Numbers. Box office figures and production budgets were adjusted for inflation based on their release year." - stacker.com
