UNOFFICIAL TFF OSCAR HISTORY



Hello!  This space has been created to keep a record of the unofficial history that played as a part of the Telluride Film Festival and The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences yearly awards for film excellence: The OSCARS.

I have arranged the history in two ways.  First, a year-by-year detailing of Oscar nominations and wins and then a breakdown of Oscar nominations by Category.  This history does not include the three shorts categories.  That may be a project for the future as there have many shorts over the years that have played TFF and have been Oscar nominees and winners.
