Achievements

The 85th Academy Awards are notable for several rare and first-time feats. Amour (French) became the first film in twelve years to be nominated for both Best Picture and Best Foreign Language Film; the last film to do so was Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (Mandarin) in 2000. Amour also became the first foreign-language film in six years to earn a Best Picture nomination; the last film to do so was Letters from Iwo Jima (Japanese) in 2006.

Several age-related records were set: Emmanuelle Riva, at 85, became the oldest nominee in the Best Actress category.[11][12] This record was previously held by Jessica Tandy, age 80, who was nominated (and won) in 1989. Quvenzhané Wallis, at age 9, became the youngest nominated actress in the Best Actress category.[12][13] This record was previously held by Tatum O'Neal, age 10, who was nominated for (and won) Best Supporting Actress in 1973. Jennifer Lawrence, at 22, became the youngest two-time nominee, having previously been nominated in 2010 for Winter's Bone.

Silver Linings Playbook became the first film in 31 years to receive nominations in all four acting categories; the last film to do so was Reds in 1981.[14][15] Silver Linings Playbook also became the first film in eight years to be nominated in the "Big Five" categories; the last film to do so was Million Dollar Baby in the 2004.

For the first time in the history of the awards, the Best Supporting Actor category consists only of previous winners. Alan Arkin, Tommy Lee Jones, and Christoph Waltz have each won Best Supporting Actor; Phillip Seymour Hoffman has won Best Actor; and Robert De Niro has won in both award categories.
