List of Fictitious Academy Award Winners and Nominees - Nominees

Nominees

Roderick Jaynes

• 1997 Best Film Editing for Fargo
• 2007 Best Film Editing for No Country for Old Men

Writer-director brothers Joel and Ethan Coen have edited several of their films under this name.

Donald Kaufman

• 2003 Best Writing Adapted Screenplay for Adaptation.

Donald Kaufman was nominated along with his "brother" Charlie. In fact, Donald does not exist; the screenplay was written by Charlie alone. Donald was the first fictitious nominee not to be a cover for a real person. (Both appear as characters in the film.)

P.H. Vazak

• 1985 Best Writing Adapted Screenplay for Greystoke: The Legend of Tarzan, Lord of the Apes.

Due to his disapproval of the final filmed script, Robert Towne used his dog's name as a pseudonym instead.
