[NOTE: THIS IS NOT AN OFFICIAL NOMINATION. There were no announcements
of nominations, no certificates of nomination or honorable mention,

1929/30 (3rd)
ACTRESS
* Norma Shearer -- The Divorcee {"Jerry"}
[NOTE: As allowed by the award rules for this year, a single nomination
could honor work in one or more films. Though the final awards ballot
listed both 'The Divorcee' and 'Their Own Desire' in her nomination,
the award was announced for only the 'The Divorcee' performance. It
has never been established as to why this was, but it possibly could
have been because the original report from the Acting Branch Board
of Judges only listed 'The Divorcee' performance in the results of
the nominations voting, or it could have been because on some of the
final ballots, the voters had indicated the 'The Divorcee' performance
over the other.]
