This name for the Academy Award for Live Action Short Film was introduced in 1974. For the three preceding years it was known as "Short Subjects, Live Action Films." The term "Short Subjects, Live Action Subjects" was used from 1957 until 1970. From 1936 until 1956 there were two separate awards, "Best Short Subject, One-reel" and "Best Short Subject, Two-reel". A third category "Best Short Subject, color" was used only for 1936 and 1937. From the initiation of short subject awards for 1932 until 1935 the terms were "Best Short Subject, comedy" and "Best Short Subject, novelty". Over the years many Academy Award nominated or winning celebrities have performed in or created short films including Oscar winner Christine Lahti ('Lieberman In Love'), Oscar nominee Kenneth Branagh ('Swan Song'), Oscar nominee Sally Kirkland ('African Chelsea'), Oscar nominee Ismail Merchant ('The Creation of Woman'), Oscar winner Taylor Hackford ('Teenage Father'), Oscar winner Melissa Leo ('The Sea Is All I Know'), Oscar nominee Jim Henson ('Time Piece'), Oscar nominee Peter Sellers ('The Running, Jumping and Standing-Still Film'), Oscar nominee John Hurt ('Sailcloth'), Oscar nominee Jeff Goldblum ('Little Surprises') and Honorary Oscar winners Walt Disney, Hal Roach and Mack Sennett. Below is a list of Oscar short films. The winning film is listed first, with the other nominated films for that year/category below.
