The 3rd Academy Awards were awarded to films completed and screened in 1929/1930, by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.

All Quiet on the Western Front became the first film to take home both Best Picture and Best Director, something that would become common in later years.

The Love Parade received 6 nominations, the greatest number of any film to that point. However, it did not win in any category.

Best Sound Recording was introduced this year, making it the first new category since the Oscars conception.
