6She, along with Deborah Kerr and Glenn Close, have the curious distinction of being Oscar-nominated 6 times each in competitive categories - without ever winning the coveted statuette. Her 6 nominations were for supporting roles, while Kerr's 6 nominations were for leading roles, and Close was nominated 3 times in both categories.
7Her first Oscar nomination for All About Eve (1950) marks her first of 4 consecutive nominations, a feat she shares with Jennifer Jones (1943-1946), Marlon Brando (1951-1954), Elizabeth Taylor (1957-1960) and Al Pacino (1972-1975). Greer Garson and Bette Davis both have five consecutive nominations (1942-1946) and (1939-1943), respectively.
8In Italy, throughout her career, she was dubbed by different actresses: Rina Morelli (e.g. Pickup on South Street (1953)), Tina Lattanzi (e.g. Daddy Long Legs (1955)), Wanda Tettoni (e.g. Pillow Talk (1959)), Lia Orlandini (e.g. How the West Was Won (1962)) and Franca Dominici (e.g. Rear Window (1954)). The talented Maria Saccenti lent her voice to Ritter only once: in All About Eve (1950).
