# oscar_data
A curated dataset of Academy Award nominations with IMDb unique identifiers.

The unique identifiers are key to disambiguate people/films with similar names.
 * The [Kenneth Branagh](https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000110/) who was nominated for directing *Henry V* in 1989 is the same person who was nominated for acting in a supporting role in *My Week with Marilyn* in 2011 and the same as the person who won for writing an original screenplay for *Belfast* in 2021 (as well as 5 other nominations).
 * The [Steve McQueen](https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000537/) nominated for acting in *The Sand Pebbles* in 1966 is **not** the same as the [Steve McQueen](https://www.imdb.com/name/nm2588606) who won Best Picture for *12 Years a Slave* in 2013.
 * The most complex situation is "Robert Benton" could mean two different people, each of whom was nominated in multiple different categories.

## Main Data File

[`oscars.csv`](oscars.csv)

### Field Guide
 * `Ceremony` (int) - Ordinal for which ceremony the nomination was for (starting at 1)
 * `Year` (string) - Year(s) from which the films are honored.
 * `Class` (string) - A custom broad grouping for categories. Values include:
   * Title (e.g. Best Picture)
   * Acting
   * Directing
   * Writing
   * Music
   * Production
   * SciTech
   * Special
 * `CanonicalCategory` (string) - Removes the variations on the exact wording of the category name over the years
 * `Category` (string) - The precise category name according to Oscars.org
 * `Film` (string*) - The title of the film (optional)
 * `FilmId` (string*) - The IMDb Title ID (starting with `tt`)
 * `Name` (string) - The precise text used for who is being nominated.
 * `Nominees` (string*) - The names of who is nominated without any extra text like "Written by"
 * `NomineeIds` (string*) - IMDb Name IDs or Company IDs for nominated entities.
 * `Winner` (bool) - True if the award was won

`*` - The fields `Film`, `FilmId`, `Nominees`, `NomineeIds`, `Detail`, and `Note` may have multiple values if multiple entities are nominated. In these cases, the values are separated by the pipe (`|`) character.

If an IMDB identifier is unknown, it will be replaced with a question mark (`?`).
