Very few horror movies have been nominated for an Oscar. The Exorcist (1973) was the only horror movie nominated for Best Picture. The 1991 film, "The Silence of the Lambs" swept the Bests: Best Picture, Best Actor (Anthony Hopkins), Best Actress (Jodie Foster), Best Director (Jonathan Demme), and Best Writing (Ted Tally). To date (June 2009), the last horror film to be nominated for Best Picture was "The Sixth Sense" in 2000.
Three animated films have been nominated for Best Picture.Disney's Beauty and the Beast (1991) was the first animated movie to be nominated for Best Picture. It lost to The Silence of the Lambs.Pixar's Up (2009) lost to The Hurt Locker.Pixar's Toy Story 3 (2010) lost to The King's Speech.
Producers are nominated for Best Picture. But not every credited producer is nominated, there's a limit of four people, so sometimes an executive producer might not get nominated even though the movie is up for Best Picture.
Nashville (1975) is the only movie that was ever nominated for nine (9) Golden Globes, thanks to four nominated actresses in the Best Supporting Actress category. Unlike the record holder above, the three movies that were nominated for 8 Golden Globes won Best Picture: Bugsy (1991), Titanic(1997), Chicago (2002).
