Oscars: This Country Has the Highest Number of International Feature Wins
Ever since the Best International Feature Film award was officially introduced, in 1956, the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Science has given the prize to 66 movies from 28 countries. Over 300 more, hailing from 62 countries all over the world, have been nominated. In 2023, All Quiet on the Western Front became the most recent film in this long list to be honored with an Oscar. The anti-war movie directed by Edward Berger earned Germany its third trophy as a unified country.
One year later, Fellini won yet again with another movie starring Masina. Running against Robert Siodmak’s The Devil Strikes at Night , René Clair’s Gates of Paris , Mehboob Khan’s Mother India , and Arne Skouen’s Nine Lives , Nights of Cabiria emerged victorious from the 1957 race. With a plot that would eventually inspire the musical Sweet Charity, the movie tells the story of a sex worker deceived and robbed by her good-for-nothing boyfriend.
The first Italian director to bring an Oscar to his country, Vittorio de Sica has also won a total of four awards for International Film. Still, only two after the category was made official. In 1964, his comedy Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow beat out Ephraim Kishon’s Sallah Shabati , Jacques Demy’s The Umbrellas of Cherbourg , Hiroshi Teshigahara’s Woman in the Dunes , and Bo Widerberg’s Raven’s End .
In 2013, Italy won its most recent Best International Feature Film award with Paolo Sorrentino’s The Great Beauty, a drama about an aging writer in the process of reassessing his life. The film was up against Thomas Vinterberg’s The Hunt , Felix van Groeningen’s The Broken Circle Breakdown , Rithy Panh’s The Missing Picture , and Hany Abu-Assad’s Omar . Italy’s last nomination came in 2021, with Sorrentino’s The Hand of God.
