26 unbelievable Oscars records, from the oldest winner to the man with 59 nominations

He wrote, directed, and produced "Parasite," which won awards for Best Original Screenplay, Best Director, Best International Feature Film, and the most prestigious honor of the night, Best Picture.

This feat has only been replicated once before, at 1954's Oscars when Walt Disney won Best Documentary Feature for "The Living Desert," Best Documentary Short Subject for "The Alaskan Eskimo," Best Short Subject (Cartoon) for "Toot, Whistle, Plunk and Boom," and Best Short Subject (Two-Reel) for "Bear Country."

The last time this happened was in 2009, with "Slumdog Millionaire."

"Parasite" is also the first foreign language film to win Best Picture.

Scorsese failed to take home any Academy Awards at the 2020 ceremony, but he did break a record with his nomination for directing "The Irishman."

Overall, he's been nominated nine times for "Raging Bull," "The Last Temptation of Christ," "Goodfellas," "Gangs of New York," "The Aviator," "The Departed," "Hugo," "The Wolf of Wall Street," and "The Irishman." He's only won once, for "The Departed."

Williams has won five times, for his work on "Fiddler on the Roof," "Jaws," "Star Wars," "E.T. the Extra Terrestrial," and "Schindler's List."

He's been nominated at least once a decade since his first nomination for 1968's "Valley of the Dolls."

Brando portrayed Vito Corleone as an old man, with adult kids and grandkids. De Niro played Corleone as a young man who had just emigrated from Italy.

When Joaquin Phoenix won for "Joker" last year, it marked the second time this happened, as Heath Ledger posthumously won for his performance as the Joker in 2008's "The Dark Knight."

He was 82 when he won for "Beginners," and 88 when he was nominated for "All the Money in the World." He was also nominated in 2010 for "The Last Station."

Plummer died in February 2021 at the age of 91.

Henry is now 49 and acts sporadically.

O'Neal co-starred in "Paper Moon" with her father, Ryan O'Neal.

Other notable winners include Mickey Rooney, Judy Garland, Bobby Driscoll, and Margaret O'Brien.

Last year, "Joker" was nominated 11 times but only won two awards (Best Actor and Best Original Score).

As previously stated, "Titanic" went on to win 11 awards. "All About Eve" and "La La Land" each took home six statues.

That's even longer than the notoriously long "The Irishman."

Most recently, Italy won for "The Great Beauty," or "La grande bellezza" in 2014, directed by Paolo Sorrentino.

Streep has won Best Actress twice, for "Sophie's Choice" and "The Iron Lady." She won Best Supporting Actress for "Kramer vs. Kramer."

In one night, Disney took home the Oscars for Best Documentary (Feature), Best Documentary (Short Subject), Best Short Subject (Cartoon), and Best Short Subject (Two-Reel) in 1953.

"'The Broadway Melody' is interesting as an example of an early Hollywood musical, but otherwise, it's essentially bereft of appeal for modern audiences," writes Rotten Tomatoes.

Prior to Bigelow, just three women had been nominated for directing — Lina Wertmüller for 1975's "Seven Beauties," Jane Campion for 1993's "The Piano," and Sofia Coppola for 2003's "Lost in Translation."

This year, however, this seems like it'll change. Emerald Fennell and Regina King were each nominated for Best Director at the Golden Globes, while Chloé Zhao won — the first time a woman won a Golden Globe for directing since 1984, when Barbra Streisand won for directing "Yentl."

It was mainly rated X simply because it wasn't suitable for kids — the "X" rating was almost brand new in 1969 and didn't have the same connotations as it does today. However, MTV does point out the film has "a fair amount of nudity and some brief scenes of sexual activity."

When it was later re-rated, it earned an R rating.

In total, seven sequels have been nominated for Best Picture — "Toy Story 3," "Mad Max: Fury Road," "The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers," "The Godfather Part III," and "The Bells of St. Mary's," plus the two winners.

You may be wondering, what about "The Silence of the Lambs"? The Anthony Hopkins/Jodie Foster joint could be considered a sequel to "Manhunter," but it's really more of a reboot.

She's not the only actor to win an Oscar for portraying an icon, but she was the first to win an Oscar for portraying an Oscar winner.

Hepburn won in 1933, 1967, 1968, and 1981 for "Morning Glory," "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner," "The Lion in Winter," and "On Golden Pond," respectively.

Though, famously, she never attended an awards show to collect her statues in person.

McDaniel won the Best Supporting Actress award for "Gone with the Wind," in which she played Mammy, a role that's since been mired in controversy.

Poitier had previously been nominated for his role in 1958's "The Defiant Ones."

In addition to being the first deaf person to win, Matlin is also the youngest woman to win Best Actress. She was 21.

Joaquin Phoenix recently thanked Ledger in his SAG Awards acceptance speech, calling Ledger his "favorite actor."

Sadly, a third actor might be added to this list in 2021: Chadwick Boseman's perfomance in "Ma Rainey's Black Bottom" has already earned a Golden Globe and a Critics' Choice Award. Boseman died in August 2020 at age 43.
