FILE PHOTO: Biopic Roles Traditionally Lead As Oscar Nominations Are Announced
Caption: (FILE PHOTO) In this composite image a comparison has been made between Frank Serpico and actor Al Pacino. Oscar hype continues this week with the announcement of the nominations for the 84th Academy Awards.

Over half of the last ten Oscars for best actor or actress have been for performances in a biopic. ***LEFT IMAGE***2002: Former New York City police detective Frank Serpico participates in a whistleblowers forum on Capitol Hill on February 27, 2002 in Washington DC.
