Political stumping and stage singing were the order of the day as The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences handed down nominations for the 85th annual Oscars.

Steven Spielberg's Lincoln led all films with 12 nominations, including best picture, best director, best actor for Daniel Day-Lewis and best supporting actress for Sally Field.

Ang Lee's adaptation Life of Pi received 11 nominations, a surprise for some of the publicists and media in attendance at the pre-dawn ceremony in Beverly Hills. Pi earned nominations for best director for Lee and best picture.
