Movies/Performances/Technical Achievements that should have won the Oscar but weren't even nominated

[ravon80]

Inspired by The Adventures of Tintin not being nominated for the Best Animated Film Oscar.

REMEMBER: only post movies, performances, or technical achievements that, in your opinion, should have won, but weren't even nominated.

Please consider reasonableness/realism (i.e., some precursor support, strong critical reception or following, etc.)

Here are a few of mine:

Inception for Film Editing

Robert Shaw for Supporting Actor in Jaws

Others?
