[
] :L: The film received its 1969 nomination under the title "My Night with Maud". It had no US distributor at the time. When it was released in Los Angeles on April 15, 1970, it became eligible for consideration for Academy Awards in other categories, and received a 1970 nomination for Writing under the title "My Night at Maud's". Today, the latter title is the most commonly used when referring to the film in the English-speaking world.:M: Originally released under the title "La Victoire en chantant", the film was reissued in France under the title "Noirs et Blancs en couleurs" (a literal French translation of its English title "Black and White in Color") following its 1976 Academy Award win.

Puerto Rico, an unincorporated territory of the United States, was thus able to receive a nomination for "What Happened to Santiago" (1989).

After nominations were announced, information came to light that showed that "A Place in the World" (1992) was wholly produced in Argentina, and had insufficient Uruguayan artistic control. The film was declared ineligible and removed from the final ballot.

However, following protests from pro-Israeli groups in the United States, the Academy decided to designate it as a submission from the Palestinian Authority, a move that was decried by the film's director Hany Abu-Assad. During the awards ceremony, the film was eventually announced by presenter Will Smith as a submission from the Palestinian Territories.
