No women were nominated for Best Screenplay–Motion Picture or Best Director–Motion Picture.
Lisa Cholodenko, along with Stuart Blumberg, was nominated for Best Screenplay – Motion Picture.
That was a silly oversight–thanks for pointing it out!
Thanks for this piece, and all the work you do on this site! I realized after commenting that it was rather rude to post just that oversight without taking a moment to thank you for holding up these lists and their differences to spark further dialogue!

This is so true, and often depressing as a woman with aspirations in writing/directing. Thank you for your part in helping support women in this industry, and in general!
Thanks for reading, estrella, and best of luck to you!
