It also received nominations for Best Picture (Robert Alan Aurthur, producer); Actor in a Leading Role (Roy Scheider); Cinematography (Giuseppe Rotunno); Directing (Bob Fosse); and Writing – Screenplay written directly for the screen (Arthur, Fosse)," state notes.

The screening was held in the Academy's Samuel Goldwyn Theater in Beverly Hills.
