Summary/Abstract: The aim of this article is to present the results of the research into the reception of Oscarwinningmovies among teenagers (lower and upper secondary school students). Threemovies, namely Slumdog Millionaire, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button and The Readerwere the favourites of the young viewers. The students watched the films attentively andwere able to present and justify their choices and opinions. The results of the survey createdquite a coherent and homogenous picture of the movies. It seems that the students’ interestin the cinema and the capability of critical thinking derive from the media education providedby the school.
