### Notes

* ↑ At the 1st Academy Awards (1927–1928), Wings won the Academy Award for Outstanding Picture (now known as Best Picture), while Sunrise won the Academy Award for Unique and Artistic Picture.

The following year, however, at the 2nd Academy Awards (1928–1929), the Academy discontinued the Unique and Artistic Picture award and decided retroactively that the Outstanding Picture award won by Wings was the highest honor that could be awarded.
