15 Academy Award-Nominated Great Films That Didn’t Win a Single Oscar


15. The Shawshank Redemption

The most surprising Oscar snub of all time took place in 1995. The Shawshank Redemption had its sights set on seven categories, including Best Picture and Best Actor (Morgan Freeman). The American drama received positive reviews for its storyline and acting. However, it didn’t stand a chance against Forrest Gump. But all wasn’t lost. The film was recognized and honored in another way back in 2015 when the US Library of Congress selected it for preservation.
