The only film and sequel to win the Best Picture Oscar are Godfather (1972) and Godfather Part II (1974).
Since WWII, the Oscars for best picture and best actress have only gone to the same film seven times. But the Oscars for best picture and best actor have gone to the same film 25 times. In other words: if a film wins the best-actor Oscar, itâs more likely to also win best picture than if it wins best actress. That said, the upcoming Oscars may be a turning point. The Academy has made strides in the last two years to increase its female membership, and the list of potential nominees features a number of best-picture and best-actress contenders with significant overlap.
