Oscar trivia


This movie has three stars (Spencer Tracy, Katharine Hepburn, Melvyn Douglas) who all won two or more Academy Awards.

Can anyone name some other movies with three or more stars who have all won two or more Oscars?

reply

Two others: "Death on the Nile" (Bette Davis, Peter Ustinov, Maggie Smith)and "California Suite" (Michael Caine, Maggie Smith, Jane Fonda).

reply

"All The President's Men" (1976)
Dustin Hoffman (Rain Man, Kramer vs. Kramer)
Jason Robards (Julia, All The President's Men)
Robert Redford (Ordinary People [director], 2002 Lifetime Achievement Oscar)

Yes, Redford's Oscars weren't for acting, but the question was 'three or more stars who have all won two or more Oscars', and these three stars all have 2 Oscars.

reply

Another: "Julia" (Jane Fonda, Jason Robards, Meryl Streep).

I love Robert Redford's acting and directing as well as his love for film making. He's a gift to movie fans around the world. I just want to give him some more love:

In addition to his Directing Oscar for Ordinary People (which is a fantastic movie in case some people have not seen it), he won an Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences' (AMPAS) Honorary Oscar Award in the Academy's words "for actor, director, producer, creator of Sundance and inspiration to independent and innovative filmmakers everywhere." What a great honor for him, and well deserved.

In December 2005, he received a Kennedy Center Honor for his contributions to American culture. AWESOME!

I'm waiting for him to win the AFI Lifetime Achievement Award. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that one day he will win this prestigious honor because he deserves it!
