Why An Oscar Win For Ryan Gosling Is Historic. And How One Man Brought Cagney's Story To The Stage. Ryan Gosling may make history tonight. If he wins an Academy Award for La La Land, it would mark the first Best Actor win for an original Hollywood musical since James Cagney won his Oscar for Yankee Doodle Dandy in 1943. The only other two Best Actor winners in movie musicals were Yul Brynner (The King & I), and Rex Harrison (My Fair Lady).
Other Oscar family ties over the years include: Michael Douglas won an Academy Award for producing the 1975 best picture One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest and also for best actor in 1987 for Wall Street. Father Kirk Douglas won an honorary Oscar in 1995. Jane Fonda won best actress for her role in Klute in 1971 and again in 1978 for Coming Home. Father Henry Fonda received an honorary Oscar in 1980 and a best actor award for On Golden Pond in 1981. Vincente Minnelli won best director for Gigi in 1958. In 1972, daughter Liza Minnelli won best actress for Cabaret. The Oscar has been in Hollywood's Huston family for three generations. John Huston won for directing the 1948 classic The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, and father Walter won for supporting actor in the same film. In 1985, John Huston directed daughter Angelica to a best supporting actress award in Prizzi's Honor.
