• With his nomination for the short film Le pupille, Alfonso Cuarón now has nominations in 8 distinct categories (Best Picture, Best Director, Best Foreign Language Film, Best Original Screenplay, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Editing, Best Cinematography and Best Live Action Short Film). He now holds the record previously held by Kenneth Branagh. Love this one. What else could he or Branagh get...... Caurón, maybe by producing a Doc or Short Doc. Branagh seems to write lyrics, maybe Song - who knows.

stephen said: The way you phrased it, it seems he directed the movie, while he was just one of the producers. The movie is directed by Alice Rohrwacher. The nomination is still in his name, though, regardless of who directed it. What about the other producers?

It should also be noted that despite a very long career and being considered by many as the prototypical producer in Hollywood, this is Jerry Bruckheimer's first Oscar nomination.

- Top Gun Maverick joins Toy Story 3 and Mad Max Fury Road as sequels nominated for Best Picture without the original film being nominated first (though arguments could also be made for Silence of the Lambs and The Queen).
- The only nomination the 1930 All Quiet on the Western Front received that the 2022 film did not, was Best Director.

• John Williams is the first nonagenarian to be nominated for a competitive Academy Award. He is also the first person to be nominated for Oscars in seven consecutive decades. • All Quiet on the Western Front is the second consecutive remake of a Best Picture winner to be nominated, following Spielberg’s remake of West Side Story last year. It is the third overall, after 1962’s Mutiny on the Bounty. • This is the first year since 1934 where all the men nominated for Best Actor are first-time nominees. • Ana de Armas is the second actress to be nominated for playing Marilyn Monroe, after her fellow nominee Michelle Williams. • Angela Bassett is the first actor to be nominated for a performance given in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. • This has been perhaps the most dominant showing for Ireland at the Academy Awards in history. Colin Farrell, Paul Mescal, Kerry Condon, Brendan Gleeson and Barry Keoghan all are nominated for acting, and An Irish Goodbye was nominated in Live Action Short Film. Additionally, Ireland sees its first nomination for International Feature with The Quiet Girl. (NOTE: Martin McDonagh is not Irish-born, despite his parents being Irish emigrants.). Interestingly, this comes off the heels of 2021 being a very healthy showing for Ireland at the Oscars, with the Belfast gang, Jessie Buckley and Wolfwalkers all getting nominated. (If Caitriona Balfe and Ruth Negga had been nominated as they should’ve been, this would’ve been a lot closer.) • With his nomination for The Fabelmans, Judd Hirsch now has the record for the longest gap between nominations, at forty-two years. • With her nomination for Everything Everywhere All At Once, Michelle Yeoh becomes the first person of full Asian descent to be nominated for Best Actress. Since you're the expert at this "stats" stuff, do you know which # is De Armas for Latina actresses getting nominated for Leading Role? Only other ones I can think of are Hayek and (phhft!) Aparicio. And Fernanda Montenegro

I think Spielberg might've joined William Wyler as a director with most BP-nominated films. Both have 13. But poor Steven Spielberg is sn underated director. All the movies he makes deserves oscars, at least as best director, sniff sniff

A few posted on AW that I thought were worth sharing: - At five years, Meryl Streep has officially entered the longest nomination-free stretch of her career since her first nomination 44 years ago. - This is the fourth year in a row that a director of Asian origin (Daniel Kwan) gets a Best Director nom, after Bong, Zhao/Chung and Hamaguchi. - Iñárritu increases to seven his streak of having every single feature he's ever directed Oscar nominated. - The animated short Ice Merchants is the first Portuguese film ever nominated for an Oscar.- de Armas and Yeoh join Halle Berry and Rosamund Pike as Oscar-nominated Bond girls. Also this: Silly me only realized this on Wednesday, the day after the nominations. I saw their names below that title in the live announcement and I tricked myself into believing they couldn't be Portuguese. Portugal has produced lots of great animated short films in recent years, with many of them being awarded in film festivals a bit all over the world. This shouldn't come as a surprise, but given our track record and the disregard for our foreign language film entries, it does feel like one.

If Paul Mescal wins the Oscar he would become the youngest actor in winning for a leading role.

Jamie Lee Curtis joins that (very restrict) club of being the daughter of two Oscar-nominated parents (Janet Leigh and Tony Curtis) who is now an official Oscar nominee. Not sure how many times this has happened. Liza Minnelli is the only example I can think of. Surprised this is her first nomination, to be honest. She's always been reliable as actress (to say the least), and she's a BAFTA winner already! If she loose, and never win a competitive Oscar, they will be the only family with Oscar nominations as actors but zero wins.

Is it a record for Diane Warren to be nominated 6 years in a row?

Maybe in Original Song but Walt Disney was nominated 22 consecutive years between the 14th and 35th ceremonies, that has to be the record.
Edith Head had a streak of 19 years between the 21st and 39th, I assume she's second and the woman with the most in a row.
I gave the Original Song lineups a look and poor Diane has a couple more years to catch up to Sammy Cahn, who had a run of 8 between the 27th and 34th ceremonies. He also won 3 of those years lol. She can't catch a break. She's at least tied with Alan & Marilyn Bergman and Mack David who had runs of 6. These were all lyricists only so Diane might be the composer/lyricist to go the longest.

Oh! All five of the Best Actress nominees come from different countries. The last time that happened in any acting category was Best Actress 2007.

Oh honeys, I'm off to the Oscars!!! Normally, in previous years I've worn a lot less and they haven't let me in... but my new Viktor & Rolf dress is sure to get me past security... Oh if anyone here is going, a word of advice... don't sit behind me as you won't see a thing!
