Actors with Non-Acting Oscars by FlaxmanR

Although he does have three nominations for his acting, Brad Pitt’s lone Oscar win to date came from his producer credit on what 2013 historical drama in which he also had a small role?

Known at the time mostly as a television star and the son of a famous actor, who won an Oscar for producing One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest more than a decade before winning the Best Actor award?

Which actor received the only three Oscar nominations of his career for a film in which he directed himself – winning Best Director (and Best Picture) but losing Best Actor to Jeremy Irons?

Warren Beatty has received 14 Oscar nominations in his career, and only four for his acting. But he has only won one of those – the Best Director award for what 1981 film?

At age 70, he received an Honorary Award for his body of work, which he initially wanted to turn down claiming that he was “still in the game.” He did end up getting one more Best Actor nomination in 2006, at the time making him the fourth-oldest Best Actor nominee ever, but didn’t win that one either.

This actor won Best Picture and Best Director for a film that received ten Oscar nominations, but he didn’t get one for Best Actor, possibly for the hubris of casting himself as a Scotsman.

Robert Redford is arguably better known for his directing work at this point, and won his only non-honorary Oscar for directing Ordinary People. But for what other Best Picture winner did Redford receive his only Best Actor nomination?

He won a Juvenile Award in 1938 and an Honorary Award in 1983 “in recognition of his 60 years of versatility in a variety of memorable film performances,” but failed to win any of his four acting nominations in between. He was also the number one box office draw between 1939 and 1940 – spanning two decades!

Angelina Jolie won the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award in 2013 after spending more than a decade as a goodwill ambassador for what UN agency?

Somewhat insultingly, he did not win Best Picture, Best Actor, or Best Director (for which he was not even nominated) at the 1946 Oscars, but he did receive an honorary award "for his outstanding achievement as actor, producer and director in bringing Henry V to the screen."

She spent her later years working for UNICEF and was awarded the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award shortly after her death in 1993 – her second Oscar, but first since her first major starring role 40 years earlier.

Okay, so this is kind of the reverse, but upon receiving his Best Supporting Actor Oscar for Syriana, George Clooney quipped, “All right, so I’m not winning Director.” For what other film was Clooney indeed nominated for Best Director that night?
