Aside from nabbing nominations from the Academy on Thursday morning, they all also took part in The Hollywood Reporter’s annual roundtables this season. Of the 49 Oscar hopefuls interviewed by THR, a whopping 24 received nominations for the 2013 awards ceremony, with the winners to be announced at the Feb. 24 event.

But if you don’t have time to watch all 1,440 minutes of footage from the actress, actor, director, writer, composer, producer, executive and costume designer roundtables, fear not. THR has condensed the highlights down into a three-minute highlight reel, featured above.
