Premio de la Academia a la Mejor Historia

El Premio Óscar a la Mejor Historia se otorgó desde los inicios de los Premios Óscar hasta 1956. Este premio coexistía con el Premio Óscar al Mejor Guion Adaptado y el Premio Óscar al Mejor Guion Original . El Óscar a la Mejor Historia se asemeja más al uso de los tratamientos cinematográficos modernos, es decir, documentos en prosa que describen la trama y los personajes, pero que generalmente carecen de diálogos. Un guionista independiente se encargaba de convertir la historia en un guion completo.

Por ejemplo, en la ceremonia de los Premios Óscar de 1944 , el productor y director Leo McCarey ganó el premio a la Mejor Historia por " Going My Way", mientras que los guionistas Frank Butler y Frank Cavett ganaron el premio al Mejor Guion Adaptado. La eliminación de esta categoría en 1956 reflejó el declive del sistema de estudios de Hollywood y el surgimiento de guionistas independientes.

Notes

↑G Men, story by Gregory Rogers (a pseudonym of Darryl F. Zanuck), was not officially nominated for this award, but appears in Academy records because it placed second in voting as a write-in candidate in 1935.
↑The screen credit and award was originally credited to Ian McLellan Hunter, who was a front for Trumbo. On December 15, 1992, the Board of Governors voted to retroactively attribute the award to Trumbo. Hunter's name was removed. Although Trumbo had died some years earlier, he had been alive in 1954 and this is not considered a posthumous award.
↑Originally announced on February 15, 1954, as a nominee in this category. On February 17, 1954, letters from the producer and nominee questioned its inclusion in the category, as it was based on the short story, "The Gift of Cochise", by the nominee, Mr. L'Amour, published in Collier's magazine on July 5, 1952. By waiver, the title of the short story was not included in the film's credits. The nomination was withdrawn, and only four nominees were included on the final ballot. The Academy thanked Mr. L'Amour and despite this incident, offered him a membership in the Academy.
↑The name of the writer credited with authorship, Robert Rich, turned out to be an alias for Trumbo, who was being blacklisted at that time. On May 2, 1975, then-Academy president Walter Mirisch presented the Award to Trumbo.
↑The authors of this Bowery Boys film respectfully withdrew their own names and the nomination. They were aware that voters had probably mistaken their film with the 1956 MGM musical of the same name starring Bing Crosby, Grace Kelly and Frank Sinatra which was based on The Philadelphia Story. This nomination was not included on the final ballot.
