5. Foreign and Film Festival Recognition

Due to its nature as a mainstream romantic comedy released in the spring, Pretty Woman was not typically screened in competition at major international film festivals (such as Cannes, Venice, or Berlin). It did not receive any major awards from non-English speaking foreign academies (e.g., French César, Spanish Goya). Its international recognition was primarily limited to the BAFTA nomination listed above and general box-office success.

#O MISSED POINTS & OVERSIGHTS

High
Three additional BAFTA nominations (Best Film, Best Original Screenplay, Best Costume Design).

The AI summary claimed only one BAFTA nomination existed, missing the film's recognition in major categories like Best Film.

High
César Award nomination for Best Foreign Film.

The AI summary explicitly denied that the film received recognition from the French Academy, which is factually incorrect.

Medium
Japan Academy Prize nomination for Best Foreign Language Film.

The film was recognized by the Japanese Academy, contradicting the AI's claim of limited foreign recognition.

Medium
Writers Guild of America (WGA) nomination for Best Original Screenplay.

This is a major industry award nomination for the script that was entirely omitted.

Low
Hector Elizondo's Golden Globe nomination for Best Supporting Actor.

While a secondary acting nomination, it completes the Golden Globe record for the film.
