25. Midnight Cowboy, awarded Best Picture in 1970, is the only X-rated movie to win an Academy Award®. The X-rating is no longer used, and in 1971, the film was given the new "R" rating.
26. Only one Oscar®-winning individual has also been a Nobel Laureate. George Bernard Shaw is the only Nobel Prize winner to also win an Academy Award®. He won Best Adapted Screenplay for Pygmalion in 1938.
27. Warren Beatty and Orson Welles are the only people to have been nominated in the producer, directing, writing and acting all in the same film. But Warren Beatty has achieved that feat more than once, 1978's Heaven Can Wait and 1981's Reds.
