By The Numbers: The 2014 Oscar Nominations

You might have thought we were done with coverage of today’s Oscar announcements, but you were wrong (although, actually, this should be for it the moment after this one). You’ve seen the nominations themselves, and you’ve read our piece about the surprises and snubs, but what you might be missing out on are the stats.

Everyone loves numbers, and so to put the nominations in a little perspective, we’ve assembled a group of useful/useless facts and stats about this year’s batch of nominees and nominations. Take a look below, and feel free to add your own fun facts in the comments section. 

10 – Most number of nominations this year, shared by “American Hustle” and “Gravity.” “12 Years a Slave” was just behind with 9, and “Dallas Buyers Club,” “Nebraska” and “Captain Phillips” managed 6, with “The Wolf Of Wall Street” and “Her” both on 5.

4 – The Best Picture nominee with the least number of nominations, which was “Philomena.”

4 – Number of acting nominations, in four different categories, won by “American Hustle.” Director David O. Russell managed the same rare feat last year with “Silver Linings Playbook” too.

33 – Years since a film not directed by David O. Russell picked up an acting nomination in all four categories.

12 – Largest number of nominations by a nominee without winning—Thomas Newman‘s nod for “Saving Mr Banks” is his twelfth without a statue. That’s one ahead of Roger Deakins, whose “Prisoners” nod makes it eleven without victory.

18 – Total number of nominations for the most lauded acting nominee—Meryl Streep, who has won 3 of them, more than any other performer.

84 – Age of the oldest acting nominee, June Squibb. She’s three years shy of the oldest nominee in the category, “Titanic“‘s Gloria Stuart.

75 – Metacritic score of lowest ranked Best Picture nominee, “The Wolf of Wall Street, just one behind behind “Philomena.”
