| sound off on the Oscar race RECORDS SET            THIS SEASONFirst Hispanic Director to win: Alfonso Cuarón
 Oldest All Time Best Actress Shortlist
 All Time Highest Nomination Average for Best Actress Shortlist
 Youngest Actress to 3 Nominations: Jennifer Lawrence            at 23
 TRIVIA NOTES            (BUT NOT REALLY RECORDS)American Hustle now one of only 3 films to have been nominated            in each acting category and win none
 Gravity (7) now the highest winning statue count without Best            Picture since Star Wars (6+1 special) but the all time record            is still Cabaret (8)
 NOMINATION            TALLYI was super accurate on Gravity (10/10), Philomena (4/4) and American Hustle (9/10)
 but overestimated two key titles Captain Phillips (9/6)            & 12 Years a Slave (12/9) while greatly underestimating Wolf            of Wall Street (3/6)
