Frustratingly, I have a tie between Say Anything... and The Abyss.

The former gave us "dissed in the Malibu", one of the best catchphrases that never was, and the latter provided perhaps the most pulse pounding 10 minute sequence (two stranded soulmates, one oxygen suit, one plan) I've ever seen.

Glory was the best film that year.

I did not like Do the right thing at all.
