"When Bradley Cooper earned a best actor nod for his performance in American Sniper, he became the 10th actor in Oscars history to score three (or more) acting nominations in consecutive years.

The nomination places him in the company of some of Hollywood's greatest thespians. The first actor to earn three acting nominations in consecutive years was Spencer Tracy, who won for leading roles in Captains Courageous in 1937 and Boys Town in 1938 after a 1936 nomination for San Francisco."
