(1) Which uncle and nephew have won Oscars since the 1970's?
(2) Who are the only two people to win Oscars for playing the same person?

Could it be Francis Ford Coppola and Nick Cage? I think they're related. i'm not sure if they've both won oscars.

No idea about the other.

[osprey]

Correct.

You know the answers? Then why ask the questions?

[violetblue]

To give us something to entertain ourselves with, rather than reading the inane rantings of spinmonkeychimpstump and all his/her relatives.

[Gromit]

Brando and De Niro in the Godfather.

Thought of Henry VIII and Obi in Star Wars, but I think the above is correct.

[netty.m]

Didnt Dame Judy and someone else both win oscars for playing Queen Elizabeth 1.

[Cetti]

Bit confused about Q2, but Cate Blanchett won an Oscar playing Katherine Hepburn - who was a previous winner of the award.

No more please as I must go out.........

Not only that, Francis Ford Coppola's father Carmine also won an Oscar for writing the music to Godfather II, as did his daughter Sofia for Best Screenplay (Lost in Translation).
Any offers for the only other family to have 3 generations of Oscar winners?
(Sorry Cetti...)

The Hustons. Father Walter, son John and his daughter Anjelica.

Now, I'm going to turn off my computer ;-)
