At the 1940 Academy Awards, the film received five nominations, but it did not win any. Sir Charles Chaplin was hurt by this, as he already had spent 27 years in Hollywood. James Stewart, the winner of the Best Actor Award (for which Chaplin was nominated), was not even planning on going to the ceremony until someone told him to go there hours before it began. Interestingly enough, this was the first year in which the winners remained secret until the moment they were announced at the ceremony.
