The 94th edition of the Oscars is just a few days away and with it the euphoria for the most important award in the seventh art in the world has generated great interest. As a reward for the popular recognition of the creators of magic in cinema, here are the films that have won the most statuettes in their history.
Although three films are tied for first place, each with 11 awards, the number of overall nominations has been key for experts to justify who is the top winner above all. Since the 70th installment of 1998, as obvious as it might seem, Titanic has become the most statuette film in the history of the Oscars with 11 awards won out of a total of 14 nominations.
Directed and written by James Cameron and starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet, this 1997 contemporary film classic holds its record as the highest winner in Oscar history. The plot, a romantic epic, tells the relationship of Jack Dawson and Rose DeWitt Bukater, two young people who meet and fall in love aboard the RMS Titanic liner on their maiden voyage from Southampton, England, to New York, United States, conquered the most important category: “Best Picture”.
The most important prize of the night is the category “Best Picture”, where the play not only won that domination, but also won it in other major installments such as Good Will Hunting and L.A. Confidential. The remaining victories were: “Best Direct” won by James Cameron, “Best Art Direction” won by Peter Lamont and Michel Ford, “Best Cinematography” for Carpenter, “Best Costume Design” by Scott, “Best Visual Effects”, “Best Editing”, “Best Soundtrack” for Horner, “Best Original Song”, “Best Sound” and “Best Editing”.
Unfortunately, the film lost 3, one of them being one of the most important: “Best Actress” where Kate Winslet was, “Best Supporting Actress” to Gloria Stuart and “Best Makeup”. Titanic won 91 extra awards from other awards.
In second place is Ben-Hur, a 1959 American film directed by William Wyler that won almost all of the Oscars for which it was nominated. “Best Film”, “Best Director”, “Best Actor”, “Best Supporting Actor”, “Best Production Design”, “Best Photography”, “Best Costume Design”, “Best Visual Effects”, “Best Editing”, “Best Soundtrack and Best Sound”.
Although it has the same number of statuettes won as Titanic, this film set mostly in the Roman province of Judea at the time of Emperor Tiberius, only got 12 nominations for which it is ranked second place. It should be noted that winning 11 out of 12 considerations is also one of the records achieved by this film played by Charlton Heston, Stephen Boyd, Jack Hawkins, Hugh Griffith and Haya Harareet.
In third place with the same number of Oscars won is the 2003 film The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King. The last film in the Lord of the Rings film trilogy directed by Peter Jackson based on the work of J.R.R. Tolkien won all the awards for which it was nominated, this being its own record.
Among the most important categories he won and won are: “Best Film”, “Best Director”, “Best Art Direction” and “Best Original Song” by Into The West written by Fran Walsh, Annie Lennox and Howard Shore.
The 2022 Oscars will take place next Sunday, March 27 from Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, United States, and Jane Campion's The Power of the Dog, in the lead with twelve nominations, could join this list.
