The last time that happened was in 2013 when Michael Haneke&#8217;s <strong>Amour<\/strong> had similar dual nominations. Only three other films in the Academy&#8217;s nine decade history have managed to do so as well &#8211;  Costa Gravas&#8217; <strong>Z<\/strong> in 1969, Ang Lee&#8217;s <strong>Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon<\/strong> in 2000 and Roberto Benigni&#8217;s <strong>Life is Beautiful<\/strong> in 1998. All four previous dual nominees would win the Best Foreign Language Film category but not in Best Picture.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the Best Picture category, <strong>Roma<\/strong> and <strong>The Favourite<\/strong> will also be dueling it out in the Best Director, Best Supporting Actress, Best Original Screenplay, Best Production Design and Best Cinematography categories.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Vice<\/strong>, a look at former Vice-President Dick Cheney, and the last iteration of <strong>A Star Is Born<\/strong>, each received eight nominations a piece including sharing spot in the Best Picture category. Additionally <strong>Vice<\/strong>&#8216;s Sam Rockwell and <strong>A Star Is Born<\/strong>&#8216;s Sam Elliott are both nominated in the Best Supporting Actor category. Surprisingly, <strong>A Star Is Born<\/strong>&#8216;s first time director Bradley Cooper was shut out of the Best Director category.<\/p>\n<p>One of the biggest hits of the year, Black Panther, has seven nominations including Best Picture, the first time that a comic book film has ever been nominated in the category. Additionally, <strong>Black Panther<\/strong>&#8216;s Hannah Beachler is the first African-American to be nominated in the Production Design category.<\/p>\n<p>But it was also a strong year for African-American cinema over all as the large number of nominations received by <strong>Blackkklansman<\/strong> (6), <strong>Black Panther<\/strong> and <strong>If Beale Street Could Talk<\/strong> (3) attest to.<\/p>\n<p>Surprisingly, after receiving some crossover appeal to mainstream audiences both <strong>Won&#8217;t You Be My Neighbor<\/strong> and <strong>Three Identical Strangers<\/strong> were locked out of the Best Documentary category.<\/p>\n<p>Here is the complete list of nominees &#8211; <\/p>\n<p><strong>Best Picture<\/strong><br \/>\nBlacKkKlansman<br \/>\nBlack Panther<br \/>\nBohemian Rhapsody<br \/>\nThe Favourite<br \/>\nGreen Book<br \/>\nRoma<br \/>\nA Star Is Born<br \/>\nVice<\/p>\n<p><strong>Best Director<\/strong><br \/>\nAlfonso Cuaron (Roma)<br \/>\nYorgos Lanthimos (The Favourite)<br \/>\nSpike Lee (BlacKkKlansman)<br \/>\nAdam McKay (Vice)<br \/>\nPawel Pawlikowski (Cold War)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Best Actress<\/strong><br \/>\nYalitza Aparicio (Roma)<br \/>\nGlenn Close (The Wife)<br \/>\nOlivia Colman (The Favourite)<br \/>\nLady Gaga (A Star Is Born)<br \/>\nMelissa McCarthy (Can You Ever Forgive Me?)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Best Actor<\/strong><br \/>\nChristian Bale (Vice)<br \/>\nBradley Cooper (A Star Is Born)<br \/>\nWillem Dafoe (At Eternity&#8217;s Gate)<br \/>\nRami Malek (Bohemian Rhapsody)<br \/>\nViggo Mortensen (Green Book)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Best Actress in a Supporting Role<\/strong><br \/>\nAmy Adams (Vice)<br \/>\nMarina de Tavira (Roma)<br \/>\nRegina King (If Beale Street Could Talk)<br \/>\nEmma Stone (The Favourite)<br \/>\nRachel Weisz (The Favourite)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Best Actor in a Supporting Role<\/strong><br \/>\nMahershala Ali (Green Book)<br \/>\nAdam Driver (BlacKkKlansman)<br \/>\nSam Elliott (A Star Is Born)<br \/>\nRichard E.
