From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
These are lists of movies with more than one Academy Award nomination in a single category. There are five categories in which this is possible: the four acting categories, and Best Original Song .
From the 81st Academy Awards , producers can submit at most two songs from the same film for Best Original Song; prior to this, four films received three nominations in the category.
There is no statutory limit on the number of acting nominees from the same film in a single category. As of the 97th Academy Awards , no film has ever received more than three; the last film to do so was The Godfather Part II , which received three nominations for Best Supporting Actor at the 47th Academy Awards .
The movie, year and nominees are listed, as well as the outcome at the ceremony.
