Which movie has won all the Academy Awards in acting?

Answer 1

Katharine Hepburn won four Best Actress Oscars during her career.

Runners up: Five persons have each won three Oscars for acting: (1) Walter Brennan won three Oscars for Best Supporting Actor; (2) Ingrid Bergman won two Best Actress Oscars and one for Best Supporting Actress; (3) Jack Nicholson won two Oscars for Best Actor and one Oscar for Best Supporting Actor; (4) Meryl Streep won two Best Actress Oscars and one for Best Supporting Actress; (5) Daniel Day-Lewis became the first person ever to win three Oscars for Best Actor.

Answer 2

No movie has ever swept all four Academy Awards for acting. The last time a film had nominations in each category was when David O. Russell's 2013 comedy/drama "American Hustle" earned nods for Best Actor (Christian Bale), Best Actress (Amy Adams), Best Supporting Actor (Bradley Cooper) and Best Supporting Actress (Jennifer Lawrence).

Russell's 2012 comedy/drama "Silver Linings Playbook" also earned nominations in every acting category: Best Actor (Cooper), Best Actress (Lawrence, who won), Best Supporting Actor (Robert De Niro) and Best Supporting Actress (Jacki Weaver).

The 1981 drama "Reds" received mentions for Best Actor (Warren Beatty), Best Actress (Diane Keaton), Best Supporting Actor (Jack Nicholson) and Best Supporting Actress (Maureen Stapleton). Only Stapleton received an acting Oscar.

Two films have earned three of the four acting awards. "A Streetcar Named Desire" (1951) produced winners for Best Actress (Vivien Leigh), Best Supporting Actor (Karl Malden) and Best Supporting Actress (Kim Hunter). Twenty-five years later, winners for "Network" were: Best Actor (Peter Finch, who won posthumously), Best Actress (Faye Dunaway) and Beatrice Straight (Best Supporting Actress).

1951 A Streetcar Named Desire won Best Actress (Vivien Leigh), Best Supporting Actor (Karl Malden) and Best Supporting Actress (Kim Hunter)
