THE 86TH ACADEMY AWARDS NOMINATION LIST ... And the OSCAR Goes to ...

Friday, January 17, 2014


 
 
It's that time of the year when all the brilliant efforts of anyone in the movie business are recognised in the form of the Academy Awards. This nominations list did not come without the usual controversy as is the case seemingly for a few years now with some movies such as The Butler not receiving one single nomination or perhaps the nomination of Jonah Hill and so on. See the list below for a detailed account for each category.
