- RegistaBen AffleckStelleBen AffleckBryan CranstonJohn GoodmanUn agente della CIA finge di essere un produttore cinematografico per salvare sei cittadini americani in pericolo a Teheran durante la rivoluzione del 1979.Snub: While Ben Affleck's thriller nabbed an impressive 7 nominations, including Best Picture, the actor-director -- who most definitely came into his own as a filmmaker this year -- was overlooked for a Best Director nomination, all the more shocking considering he was one of the few who looked to give Lincoln's Steven Spielberg some competition in that category.
- RegistaKathryn BigelowStelleJessica ChastainJoel EdgertonChris PrattLa storia della caccia all'uomo decennale che ha portato all'individuazione ed esecuzione di Osama bin Laden, il responsabile dell'attacco terroristico dell'11 settembre 2001.Snub: Well, at least Mr. Affleck has some distinguished company in the Best Director-omission category: former winner Kathryn Bigelow was also shut out of the race, though her film is up for Best Picture, Actress (Jessica Chastain), and Screenplay. This could be the most-discussed snub of the year considering ZDT's headline-garnering controversies.
- RegistaMichael HanekeStelleJean-Louis TrintignantEmmanuelle RivaIsabelle HuppertGeorges e Anne sono una coppia ottantenne. Sono insegnanti di musica in pensione. La loro figlia, anch'essa musicista, vive in Gran Bretagna. Un giorno Anne ha un ictus e il legame d'amore della coppia è messo a dura prova.Surprise: It was expected that Michael Haneke's superb and devastating drama would be up for Best Foreign Language Film, but it also received high-profile nods for Best Picture, Director, Actress (Emmanuelle Riva, officially the oldest nominee ever in that category now), and Screenplay, making it now one of the major players in the Oscar race.
- RegistaBenh ZeitlinStelleQuvenzhané WallisDwight HenryLevy EasterlyDi fronte alla salute sbiadita del padre irascibile e alle calotte di ghiaccio che si sciolgono e inondano la sua sgangherata comunità bayou e scatenano antichi uri, Hushpuppy di sei anni deve imparare le vie del coraggio e dell'amore.Surprise: The heavily favored indie was hoping for some recognition from the Academy, but probably didn't expect this much! It's up for Best Picture, Actress (Quvenzhané Wallis, officially the youngest nominee ever in that category now), Screenplay, and most surprisingly, Best Director for Benh Zeitlin, who outpaced Ben Affleck, Kathryn Bigelow, AND Quentin Tarantino.
- RegistaTom HooperStelleHugh JackmanRussell CroweAnne HathawayNella Francia del XIX secolo, Jean Valjean, che per decenni è stato braccato dal poliziotto spietato Javert dopo aver violato la libertà condizionale, accetta di prendersi cura della figlia di un operaio. Questa decisione cambia le loro vite per sempre.Snub: Without Best Director or Screenplay nominations to go with its Best Picture nod, the Academy has pretty much killed any big-time Oscar dreams that this big-screen adaptation of the stage musical ever dreamed... Though Anne Hathaway should start working on her Supporting Actress acceptance speech right now!
- RegistaChristopher NolanStelleChristian BaleTom HardyAnne HathawayOtto anni dopo il regno anarchista del Joker, Batman, con l'aiuto dell'enigmatica Catwoman, deve lasciare il suo esilio e salvare Gotham City, ora ai margini del totale annientamento dal brutale terrorista guerrigliero Bane.Snub: Absolutely zero love for Christopher Nolan's Caped Crusader epic, not even in any of the tech categories. Heck, even The Avengers and Prometheus got one nomination each! (Both are up for Visual Effects) Sorry, Batman...
- RegistaBen LewinStelleJohn HawkesHelen HuntWilliam H. MacyUn uomo in un polmone di ferro che desidera perdere la verginità contatta un surrogato del sesso professionale con l'aiuto del suo terapeuta e sacerdote.Snub: While his co-star Helen Hunt grabbed a nomination for Supporting Actress, star (and former nominee) John Hawkes, who plays a man in an iron lung who wishes to lose his virginity via a professional sex surrogate, was overlooked for Best Actor. Unlike the nominated Joaquin Phoenix, he would have attend the ceremonies.
- RegistaDavid O. RussellStelleBradley CooperJennifer LawrenceRobert De NiroDopo un periodo di degenza per turbe mentali, Pat si trasferisce a vivere con i genitori e tenta di riconciliarsi con l'ex-moglie. Ma le cose si complicano quando Pat incontra Tiffany, una ragazza misteriosa anch'essa alle prese con una serie di problemi.Surprise: The idiosyncratic romantic comedy was pretty much a sure thing for Best Picture nomination and nods for three of its stars (Bradley Cooper, Jennifer Lawrence, and Robert De Niro), the additional nomination of Jacki Weaver for Best Supporting Actress makes it the first film since Reds to score nominations in all four acting categories.
- RegistaJacques AudiardStelleMarion CotillardMatthias SchoenaertsArmand VerdureAlain, con il figlio piccolo sulle spalle, lascia il Belgio e si trasferisce ad Antibes per vivere con sua sorella e il marito di lei. Il suo legame con Stephanie, un'addestratrice di orche marine, si intensifica ancora di più dopo che la donna subisce un terribile incidente.Snub: Former Oscar winner Marion Cotillard's powerful performance was on everyone's short list for Best Actress, but the French star found herself omitted in favor of Amour's Emmanuelle Riva and Beasts of the Southern Wild's Quvenzhané Wallis.
- RegistaAng LeeStelleSuraj SharmaIrrfan KhanAdil HussainUn giovane sopravvive ad un naufragio condividendo una scialuppa di salvataggio con una temibile tigre del Bengala.Surprise: Another expected contender, the mystical Ang Lee is up for an impressive 11 nominations, making it the second-most nominated film after Lincoln and a prime contender for sweeping up a number of technical awards.
- RegistaPaul Thomas AndersonStelleJoaquin PhoenixPhilip Seymour HoffmanAmy AdamsUn veterano della Marina ritorna a casa dopo la guerra con poche prospettive per il futuro, fino a quando non viene coinvolto da un culto ed il suo carismatico leader.Snub: Though it received three acting nods for stars Joaquin Phoenix, Philip Seymour Hoffman, and Amy Adams, filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson was left out in the cold in both Director and Screenplay categories.
- RegistaTarsem SinghStelleLily CollinsJulia RobertsArmie HammerUna regina cattiva ruba il controllo di un regno e una principessa esiliata chiede l'aiuto di sette ribelli intraprendenti per riconquistare il suo diritto di nascita.Out of Left Field: Every year there's always one movie in a minor (or even a major) category that got very little critical love yet manages to score an Oscar nomination that makes you scratch your head and go, "Huh?" This year's Unexpected Academy Award Nominee is the Julia Roberts Snow White-redo, which is up for Best Costume Design opposite its film doppelganger, Snow White and the Huntsman -- though expect either the tophats of Lincoln or the furry hats of Anna Karenina to triumph.
