FAQs
The year was notable for the first—and so far, only—tie for Best Actress: Katharine Hepburn and Barbra Streisand shared the award, for their performances in The Lion in Winter and Funny Girl, respectively.
Ties at the Academy Awards have only happened six times since the first Oscars took place in 1929, but they can and do occur — most famously in 1969 when Barbra Streisand and Katharine Hepburn tied for Best Actress.
