Something we've never discussed is that it's possible for two people to win Oscars in the same category. It's happened at least twice that I can find - 1931 and 1968. In 1968 both Katherine Hepburn and Barbra Streisand won for Best Actress.
Why do I keep walking around singing "Tonight's the Night" by old Roddy Stewart?
