86TH ANNUAL ACADEMY AWARDS SIDEBARS
In the acting categories, eight individuals are first-time nominees (Chiwetel Ejiofor, Matthew McConaughey, Barkhad Abdi, Michael Fassbender, Jared Leto, Sally Hawkins, Lupita Nyong'o, June Squibb). Seven of the nominees are previous acting winners (Christian Bale, Cate Blanchett, Sandra Bullock, Judi Dench, Meryl Streep, Jennifer Lawrence, Julia Roberts).
Among this year's acting nominees, Bradley Cooper, Jennifer Lawrence and Amy Adams were also nominated last year.
Jennifer Lawrence is the youngest three-time acting nominee at 23 years old. Teresa Wright was 24 years old when she received her third nomination in 1942.
Last year, Silver Linings Playbook became the first film to receive nominations for Best Picture, Directing, Writing and all four acting categories since Reds (1981). American Hustle repeats that feat.
With her Best Picture nominations for American Hustle and Her, Megan Ellison becomes the first woman and only the fourth person to receive two Best Picture nominations in the same year (since 1951, when individual producers were first cited in the nomination). Previous producers to have done so are Francis Ford Coppola and Fred Roos (The Godfather Part II and The Conversation, 1974) and Scott Rudin (The Social Network and True Grit, 2010). For both Rudin and Ellison, the Best Picture category allowed for more than five nominees.
David O. Russell has received back-to-back nominations for directing and writing a single film (Silver Linings Playbook, 2012, and American Hustle, 2013), placing him in the company of six other filmmakers: Billy Wilder, David Lean, Joseph L. Mankiewicz, John Huston, Richard Brooks and most recently, Woody Allen (in 1977 and 1978).
Meryl Streep extends her lead as the most nominated performer with her eighteenth nomination.
Woody Allen adds to his record number of Writing nominations with his sixteenth.

With her Production Design and Costume Design nominations for The Great Gatsby, Catherine Martin becomes only the second person to be nominated in those two categories for the same film on more than one occasion. In 2001 she was nominated and won Oscars in those categories for Moulin Rouge. The only other person to receive nominations in those two categories more than once was Piero Gherardi, who did so for three films directed by Federico Fellini (in 1961, 1963 and 1966).
John Williams has more nominations than any other living person, extending his lead with 49 (the only person with more is Walt Disney at 59). Woody Allen has the second-highest number of nominations among living persons at 24. Williams also extends his record for the most music scoring nominations with 44.
Thomas Newman’s nomination for Original Score for Saving Mr. Banks is his twelfth and brings the total for members of the Newman family (Alfred, Lionel, Emil, Thomas, David and Randy) to 88, more than any other family.
