Such a good movie! Leo was excellent as usual. I can watch it over and over again.

Because it wasnt a big release. This is one of his best films.

Pretty much the exact reason why I generally ignore award tallies

It was a flop from what I remember, coming and going from theatres. DiCaprio received good reviews but the film as a whole, not so much so I don’t think it was ever seen as a serious awards contender.

Nor does the OP “get” English.

The movie received no nominations, ergo, it was not a nominee.

Sheesh. It’s not rocket science.
