The 2012 Academy Award nominations have been announced–now the handicapping for the Feb. 26 ceremony begins. If your patrons are movie history buffs, or if you’re thinking of doing a display of past nominees, here are a few useful sites to bookmark:
The Internet Movie Database (IMDb) lists of all of the nominees since the awards’ inception in 1929, as well as an overview of their history and a timeline.
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences maintains several searchable databases, including award winners, acceptance speeches, and motion picture scripts.
The AMC Filmsite lists the winners by categories, such as “Most Acting Nominations by Film” and “Actors/Actresses with the Most Nominations and Wins.”
Rotten Tomatoes has reviews of the nominees.
