The 24th Academy Awards is an event that honored the Greatest Films of 1951.
The single film which came out with the largest number of honors was An American in Paris, which received six Oscars, including Best Picture. However, A Place in the Sun received six academy awards, including best director, and A Streetcar Named Desire took four of them for itself, including three of the acting awards. Oddly enough, the only nominee from that film that did not win was Marlon Brando, whose performance as Stanley Kowalski is now considered one of the most influential in movie history.
