The award winners were as follows: Contents 1 Awards 1.1 Best Actor 1.2 Best Actress 1.3 Best Art Direction 1.4 Best Cinematography 1.5 Best Director 1.6 Outstanding Production 1.7 Best Sound Recording 1.8 Best Writing 2 References Awards Best Actor George Arliss as Benjamin Disraeli in Disraeli (1929) NOTE: As allowed by the award rules for this year, a single nomination could honor work in one or more films. Though the final awards ballot listed both Disraeli and The Green Goddess in Arliss' nomination, the award was announced for only the Disraeli performance. It has never been established as to why this was, but it possibly could have been because the original report from the Acting Branch Board of Judges only listed the Disraeli performance in the results of the nominations voting, or it could have been because on some of the final ballots, the voters had indicated the Disraeli performance over the other. Best Actress Norma Shearer as Jerry Bernard Martin in The Divorcee (1930) NOTE: As allowed by the award rules for this year, a single nomination could honor work in one or more films. Though the final awards ballot listed both The Divorcee and Their Own Desire in Shearer's nomination, the award was announced for only The Divorcee performance. It has never been established as to why this was, but it possibly could have been because the original report from the Acting Branch Board of Judges only listed The Divorcee performance in the results of the nominations voting, or it could have been because on some of the final ballots, the voters had indicated The Divorcee performance over the other.
