Ava DuVernay’s Selma Among Oscar Nominees For Best Picture<\/strong>Posted by Wilson Morales<\/p>\n

January 15, 2015<\/p>\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

Nominations for the 87h Academy Awards were announced Thursday morning, January 15, by Academy President Cheryl Boone Isaacs along with Chris Pine, J.J. Abrams, and Alfonso Cuaron in a two-part live event\u00a0at the Academy\u2019s Samuel Goldwyn Theater in Beverly Hills.<\/p>\n

Ava DuVernay’s Selma received just two Oscar nominations this morning, one for Best Picture and the other for Best Song (“Glory,” written by Common and John Legend). For a film that is currently sitting with 99% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes, it’s pretty disappointing to get less attention from Oscar voters.<\/p>\n

Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu\u2019s \u201cBirdman\u201d and Wes Anderson\u2019s \u201cThe Grand Budapest Hotel\u201d led the pack with nine nominations each, including best picture.<\/p>\n

Hosted by Neil Patrick Harris, the Oscars\u00a0will be held on Sunday, February 22, 2015, at the Dolby Theatre at Hollywood & Highland Center in Hollywood, and will be televised live by the ABC Television Network. The Oscar presentation also will be televised live in more than 225 countries and territories worldwide.<\/p>\n
