=== Rules ===
According to Rules 2 and 3 of the official Academy Awards Rules, a film must open in the previous calendar year, from midnight at the start of January 1 to midnight at the end of December 31, in [[Los Angeles County, California]], and play for seven consecutive days, to qualify, except for the Best International Feature Film, Best Documentary Feature, and awards in short film categories. The film must be shown at least three times on each day of its qualifying run, with at least one of the daily showings starting between 6 pm and 10 pm local time.<ref name="92Rule2">{{cite web |title=Rule Two: Eligibility |url=https://www.oscars.org/sites/oscars/files/92aa_rules.pdf |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200114205010/https://www.oscars.org/sites/oscars/files/92aa_rules.pdf |archive-date=January 14, 2020 |access-date=March 20, 2020 |website=92nd Academy Awards of Merit: Rules |publisher=Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title= FAQ |website=Oscars Submission
For example, the 2009 [[Academy Award for Best Picture|Best Picture]] winner, ''[[The Hurt Locker]]'', was originally first released in 2008, but did not qualify for the [[81st Academy Awards|2008 awards]], as it did not play its Oscar-qualifying run in Los Angeles until mid-2009, thus qualifying for the [[82nd Academy Awards|2009 awards]]. Foreign films must include English subtitles. Each country can submit only one film for consideration in the International Feature Film category per year.<ref>{{cite web |title=The Academy and its Oscar Awards – Reminder List of Eligible Releases |url=http://www.youbioit.com/en/article/shared-information/949/academy-and-its-oscar-awards |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131111232741/http://www.youbioit.com/en/article/shared-information/949/academy-and-its-oscar-awards |archive-date=November 11, 2013}}</ref>
