20 Things You Didn't Know About 2021's Oscar Nominees
20. It Has The Longest Title In Oscar History - Borat Subsequent Moviefilm
Borat Subsequent Moviefilm ended up receiving two Oscar nominations for Best Adapted Screenplay and Best Supporting Actress (Maria Bakalova), but regardless of how the film performs on Oscar night, its mere nomination won it one totally unique accolade.
Because the film's producers submitted the hit comedy sequel under its full title, "Borat Subsequent Moviefilm: Delivery of Prodigious Bribe to American Regime for Make Benefit Once Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan," it broke the record for the longest title of any film ever nominated for an Academy Award.
At 110 characters in length, it beat out the 1965 film Those Magnificent Men in Their Flying Machines or How I Flew from London to Paris in 25 hours 11 minutes, which rocked in at a still-beefy 85 characters.
The feat was even acknowledged by Guinness World Records, and to make it even funnier, if Borat Subsequent Moviefilm wins either of its Oscars, some poor engraver will have to figure out how to fit the entire title on the award statuette.
