Two categories: actors and actresses.
Who would you have awarded three Oscars to [to date] and for what films?
[Leave Daniel Day-Lewis out, he's won his three (so far) and leave Katharine Hepburn out of it too, she's already won four].
It has to be for what can credibly described as the leading role.

This is a timeless example of quality entertainment for the whole family reinforcing social values that so far, even the boy scouts are pale in comparison.
Next time you see the marlboro man you might ask yourself if he smokes poles between smoking cigarettes.
I am sure FMF can loan you his copy of this movie if you can not find it near you!!!

The Great Santini
Tender Mercies
The Apostle
Liv Ullmann
Would need to see more of her films to pick 3, but she's been outstanding in everything I have seen.

Thanks for the tip.
I looked to see if my library had it and they don't. For that matter, I couldn't find where it's even available on DVD.
Any others that you'd recommend?
Other than that film, maybe you can find something here:
