To be eligible for 83rd Academy Awards consideration, feature films must open in a commercial motion picture theatre in Los Angeles County by midnight on December 31, and begin a minimum run of seven consecutive days.
Under Academy rules, a feature-length motion picture must have a running time of more than 40 minutes and must have been exhibited theatrically on 35mm or 70mm film or in a qualifying digital format.
