Its a year of first for many. The awards this year has two debutant actresses making to the nominee list in the Best Actress. Lady Gaga for her role in 'A Star Is Born' and Yalitza Aparicio for 'Roma' have got the Academy nod for their performances. It is also a year when the Academy has truly opened its gate to diverse films as it nominated Mexican director Alfonso Cuaron's Mexican language film 'Roma' in Best Picture category.
