2014 Beachhouse Awards by the numbers

A total of 66 films received at least 1 nomination this year, the largest total to date if memory serves me right. No new categories, and kept all at 5 nominees, except for Overlooked Film which I've varied between 7 and 10 depending on the year, with 10 mentions this year. As always, I tried to vary up the nominees, including many choices that were left out all year long by other awards, or films that made a good precursor showing and then ended up snubbed by the Academy. In fact, even without the Overlooked category (in which I choose films that I think are definitely worthy of mention but didn't place in any other particular category)...there were still 23 films that received a nomination somewhere that were otherwise completely blanked by the Academy for the 2014 Oscars.
