Usually I cede the culture beat to our brother site Modern Fabulousity, but I heard this on Newsradio 88 this morning, and in the spirit of the Festival of Ridiculousness that is Oscar® weekend, I wanted to pass it on.
Out of 20 acting nods, at least seven, or 35%, are connected to fellow nominee Leonardo DiCaprio (a.k.a. The Actor Who For Some Reason Scares the Bejeezus Out of Straight Men in America):
Thread 1:

Kate Winslet worked with Jim Carrey in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Carrey worked with Morgan Freeman (nominated for Million Dollar Baby in Bruce Almighty.
Thread 2:

Johnny Depp's co-star in Finding Neverland is Kate Winslet.
Thread 3:

I'll add a couple more:

Leonardo DiCaprio worked with Ioan Gruffudd in Titanic. Gruffudd appeared with Clive Owen (nominated for Closer) in 2004's King Arthur.
