| The years are technically correct, in that Nicholson did receive his nominations in the years listed above. But the point that MovieDynamic made was that the standard way to refer to an Oscar nomination is by the year of the film's release, rather than the year when the ceremony took place.
In other words, 1975 is the year that people think of when they think of Nicholson's first Oscar, because the movie in question came out that year. The award ceremony where he received that award is typically referred to as the "1975 Oscars," even though they occurred in 1976, because it honored the flims of 1975. |
