One particular director from the early 20th century set a record for most Best Director nominations without a win.

The Big Picture “It’s an honor to be nominated,” as they say, and that’s certainly true when it comes to the Academy Awards. This ceremony holds such prestige in the world of film that to just be invited is an honor. Still, it can be quite fascinating to watch the Oscars constantly nominate certain artists but never deem them worthy of an Oscar win.

The following year, Brown would score another Best Director nod for A Free Soul. After this feature, Brown wouldn't get another Best Director nomination at the Oscars for an entire decade, though he'd make a big comeback to the ceremony in the 1940s. Beginning with the 1943 feature The Human Comedy, Brown secured a total of three Best Director Oscar nods across the 40s, with the other two nominations going towards National Velvet and The Yearling.

The frequent lack of Best Picture nominations or tons of other Oscar nods for Clarence Brown’s movies also suggested that there may not have been enough overall passion for features like Anna Christie or Romance to get them to a Best Director victory. While films with minimal amounts of overall nominations can score Best Director wins, it helps to have a multitude of nominations across a variety of departments to ensure there’s a lot of passion for your motion picture.
