Academy Award for Writing Original Screenplay
The Academy Award for Writing Original Screenplay is the Academy Award for the best script not based upon previously published material. Before 1940 there was an Academy Award for Best Story for writing. For 1940 it and the award in this article were separated into two awards. Beginning with the Oscars for 1957 the two categories were combined to honour only the screenplay.
