Minnesota may be a long way from Hollywood, but that doesn't mean Minnesotans have gotten the cold shoulder at the Oscars.

Over the years, several have taken home entertainment's top prize.

This year, we count at least six Minnesotans — or honorary Minnesotans — up for Academy accolades:

· Amy Adams, who briefly lived here while performing at the Chanhassen Dinner Theatres, is up for best supporting actress for Vice.

· Former Guthrie Experience for Actors in Training member Mahershala Ali, up for best supporting actor for Green Book. He's a previous winner in this category; he took Oscar home for 2016's Moonlight.

· Jimmy Chin, who grew up in Mankato, Minn., and graduated from Carleton College, is nominated for documentary feature. He co-directed Free Solo with his wife Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi.

· The Coen brothers — Joel and Ethan Coen — could take home the best adapted screenplay prize. They've previously won four Oscars. See below for more on the St. Louis Park natives.

· Former Twin Cities TV reporter Phil Johnston is nominated for best animated feature for Ralph Breaks the Internet.

The Oscars will be broadcast live on Feb. 24 on ABC.

Minnesota's Academy Award winners

Gale Sondergaard

Born Edith Hol Sondergaard in Litchfield, Gale Sondergaard won the inaugural best supporting actress Oscar for 1936's Anthony Adverse. She scored another best supporting actress nod for 1946's Anna and the King of Siam.

Judy Garland

In 1940, the Wizard of Oz star and Grand Rapids native was honored with a special Academy Juvenile Award for her "outstanding performance as a screen juvenile during the past year."

The last recipient of the miniature Oscar statuette (it was approximately seven inches tall, in contrast to the the normal 13 1/4" Academy Award) was Hayley Mills, for 1960's Pollyanna.

Gig Young

The St. Cloud native, born Byron Elsworth Barr, was nominated three times for best supporting actor, winning once. His first nomination was for 1951's Come Fill the Cup, and he was honored again for 1958's Teacher's Pet. Third time was the charm — he took home the trophy for 1969's They Shoot Horses, Don't They?

Michael Todd

Todd won the best picture Oscar for producing 1956's Around the World in 80 Days.

The pioneering film producer was born Avrom Hirsch Goldbogen in Minneapolis.

George Roy Hill

Hill was born into the newspaper business — his family owned the Minneapolis Tribune — but he made his mark in film. He earned a best director nomination for 1969's Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. He didn't win, but he wasn't done yet: he took home the Oscar for his work directing 1973's The Sting.

Jessica Lange

The Cloquet-born star was named best supporting actress for her role in 1982's Tootsie. She took home a second Oscar more than a decade later, this time as best actress for 1994's Blue Sky.

Lange is one of a handful of actresses to win in both female acting categories.

Prince

Minneapolis native Prince snagged the Academy Award for best original song score for 1984's Purple Rain.

Bob Dylan

The Duluth-born singer took home the Oscar for best original song for "Things Have Changed" from the 2000 film Wonder Boys.

Dylan accepted the award via satellite from Sydney, where he was on tour.

"Good god, this is amazing," he said. Dylan thanked the Academy for being "bold enough to give me this award for this song, which obviously (is) a song that doesn't pussyfoot around or turn a blind eye to human nature."

The Coen brothers

St. Louis Park-born Joel and Ethan Coen have received more than a dozen Academy Award nominations for writing, producing, editing and directing, two under the pseudonym Roderick Jaynes. They're up again this year for best adapted screenplay for The Ballad of Buster Scruggs.

They've won four: One for best original screenplay for 1996's Fargo and three for 2007's No Country for Old Men — best director, best adapted screenplay and best picture.

Pete Docter

The Bloomington native won the best animated feature Oscar for 2009's Up.

Docter told MPR News that year he made Up in part because he is an introvert.

"I have a tendency of wanting to just crawl under my desk and stay there," he said. "And so the idea of floating away in this floating house we had drawn just seemed very alluring and poetic and all."

He took home another animated feature film Oscar for 2015's Inside Out. He was also nominated for original screenplay (going up against the Coen brothers) for Inside Out.

Jim Erickson

Minnesota native Erickson's job is all in the details. The set designer won the Oscar for production design for 2012's Lincoln.

Erickson was also nominated in the art direction category for 2007's There Will Be Blood.

Not a true Minnesotan but...

Best supporting actor winner Mahershala Ali (for 2016's Moonlight) was a member of the Guthrie Experience for Actors in Training class of 1999. Ali is in the race for best supporting actor again this year.

Former City Pages blogger Diablo Cody won the best original screenplay Oscar for 2007's Juno. She famously wrote the script in the coffee shop of a Target in Crystal.

Peter Del Vecho won the best animated feature Oscar for 2013's Frozen. He reportedly worked at the Guthrie Theater in Minneapolis for nine years.

Frances McDormand, who starred in the Guthrie's Three Sisters in the summer of 1984 (and who's also married to St. Louis Park native Joel Coen — all of that practically makes her a Minnesotan, right?), won the best actress trophy twice, once for 1996's Fargo and also in 2018 for Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri.

Mark Rylance, who appeared in several Guthrie productions, took home best supporting actor for his work in 2015's Bridge of Spies.

Nominated but no wins

Several Minnesotans have also been nominated, but went home empty-handed. Some of these nominees weren't born in Minnesota — but we'll lay claim to them, anyway, because they live(d) here.

St. Paul native William Demarest landed a best supporting actor nomination for 1946's The Jolson Story.

Sunrise Township's Richard Widmark scored a best supporting actor nod for 1947's Kiss of Death.

Eddie Albert was nominated twice for best supporting actor, the first for 1953's Roman Holiday and again for 1972's The Heartbreak Kid. Born in Illinois, Albert moved to Minneapolis when he was one.

The only American-born actor in Monty Python's Flying Circus, Terry Gilliam hails from Minneapolis. He earned a best screenplay nomination for 1985's Brazil.

Winona Ryder was nominated twice. The Winona native snagged a best supporting actress nod for 1993's The Age of Innocence and best actress nomination for 1994's Little Women.

John Hawkes, who hails from Alexandria, was honored with a best supporting actor nomination for 2010's Winter's Bone.

Minneapolis producer Bill Pohlad scored a best picture nomination for producing 2011's The Tree of Life.

Minnesota native Jim Burke landed his own best picture nomination for producing 2011's The Descendants.

Minneapolis Washburn High School graduate Drew Kunin was nominated for sound mixing for 2012's Life of Pi and for 2015's Bridge of Spies.

Melisa Wallack nabbed a screenwriting nomination for 2013's Dallas Buyer's Club. The Minneapolis native shared it with her co-writer, Craig Borten.

Somali-born Barkhad Abdi landed a best supporting actor nomination for his role in 2013's Captain Phillips. He starred alongside Tom Hanks and three other Minneapolis actors.

Amy Adams, who briefly lived in Minnesota while performing at the Chanhassen Dinner Theatres, has six nominations. Her first was for 2005's Junebug in the best supporting actress category. She followed it up with three more supporting actress nominations for 2008's Doubt, 2010's The Fighter and 2012's The Master. She landed her first best actress nomination for 2013's American Hustle. She's up again for best supporting actress this year in Vice.
