American Hustle, Gravity Lead 

Oscar Nominations 

 

American Hustle and Gravity lead this year’s Oscar nominations with 10 nods each, followed closely behind by 12 Years a Slave. Amid some of the more obvious picks—Jennifer Lawrence, Amy Adams, Chiwetel Ejiofor, and Alfonso Cuarón all heard their names called for their respective categories this morning—were some more unexpected snubs and nods. Inside Llewyn Davis was shut out of all the major categories, earning just two nominations for cinematography and sound mixing, while dark horse Philomena picked up several, including one for Best Picture.*
