If we had a time machine, attending the 1998 Oscars [1] would be on our bucket list. It was the night that childhood friends Matt Damon [2] and Ben Affleck [3] took home their first Oscar for best original screenplay for Good Will Hunting [4], and the late Robin Williams [5] also won best supporting actor for his role in the film. Director James Cameron could barely contain his excitement when he was honored for his work on Titanic [6] (the movie also won best picture).
It wasn't just the winners who made the evening unforgettable, though. The red carpet was buzzing with It girls of the '90s [7], including Halle Berry [8], Drew Barrymore [9], and Tyra Banks [10]! Scroll through and take a trip down memory lane with all the best photos from the 70th Academy Awards.
