*NOTE: SAMSON AND DELILAH premiered on October 31, 1949. However, the movie was not issued for general release in the United States until 1950. Because a film's qualification for the Academy Awards depends on the year in which it is commercially released in Los Angeles County, California, SAMSON AND DELILAH's Academy Award nominations were earned at the 1951 ceremony honoring the films of 1950.
