OSCAR Awards
2014 Oscar Nominations Announced
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences announced the nominations for the 86th Academy Awards, the most prestigious award in Hollywood
If you didn’t watch the 86th Academy Awards ceremony this morning live from the Samuel Goldwyn Theater in Beverly Hills, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences announced its list of 2014 nominees from 2013.
American Hustle and Gravity led the way with ten nominations each, while 12 Years a Slave isn’t too far behind with nine nominations.
Also doing well were Alexander Payne’s black-and-white road trip Nebraska (six nominations) and Spike Jonze’s futuristic romance Her (five nominations).
Martin Scorsese’s nearly three-hour extravaganza of money, sex and drugs, The Wolf of Wall Street landed four big nominations: best picture, best actor (Leonardo DiCaprio), best director (Scorsese) and best supporting actor (Jonah Hill).
The two most notable omissions from the Academy’s finalists list are Tom Hanks (Captain Phillips) and Robert Redford (All is Lost), while Academy apparently did not take a liking to films like Inside Llewyn Davis (got cinematography and sound mixing) and Saving Mr. Banks (only a single nomination for score), not to mention The Butler, which didn’t get a single one.
Oscars will be presented on Sunday, March 2nd, 2014 at the Kodak Theatre and will be broadcast on ABC starting at 7PM (EST).
