Note A - the "inscriptions" for all 3 honorary awards

Note B - Russell wins 2 awards / same performance ... and other Harold Russell notes


 * Note A:
 * To Harold Russell for bringing hope and courage to his fellow veterans through his appearance in The Best Years of Our Lives.
 * To Claude Jarman, Jr., outstanding child actor of 1946.
 * To Vincent Winter for his outstanding juvenile performance in The Little Kidnappers.


 * Note B:
 * Despite his Oscar-nominated performance, Harold Russell was not a professional actor. As the Academy Board of Governors considered him a long shot to win, they gave him an honorary award "for bringing hope and courage to his fellow veterans through his appearance." When Russell in fact won Best Supporting Actor, there was an enthusiastic response.  He is the only actor to have received two Academy Awards for the same performance.  In 1992, Russell sold his Best Supporting Actor award at auction for $60,500 ($ today), to pay his wife's medical bills.
 * The Academy awarded Harold Russell—a World War II veteran who had lost both hands in the war and who, despite not being an actor, portrayed Homer Parrish in The Best Years of Our Lives—an Honorary Academy Award for "bringing hope and courage to his fellow veterans," believing he would not win the Best Supporting Actor award for which he was nominated. As it happened, he did win the competitive award, making him the only person to receive two Oscars for the same performance.
 * Harold John Avery Russell (January 14, 1914 – January 29, 2002) was a Canadian-born American World War II veteran who became one of only two non-professional actors to win an Academy Award for acting (the other being Haing S. Ngor).  Russell also has the distinction of being the only performer to sell his Oscar award at auction.

19 People Who Won Oscars For Their First Movie


 * Michael Arndt ... Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay ... 79th ... 2006 ... Little Miss Sunshine

Winning debuts aren't limited to actors. It only took three days for Michael Arndt to write Little Miss Sunshine. (Well, three days and then a year of revisions.) The screenplay sold in 2001 and then spent a few more years in pre-production. The completed film was a surprise hit, winning Best Original Screenplay in 2007 (it also won a Best Supporting Actor statuette for Alan Arkin, and nods for Best Picture and Best Supporting Actress for Abigail Breslin). Arndt's second script, for Toy Story 3, was nominated for Best Adapted Screenplay in 2011. Most recently, he co-wrote the script for Star Wars: The Force Awakens with J.J. Abrams and Lawrence Kasdan.


 * Diablo Cody ... Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay ... 80th ... 2007 ... Juno

Screenwriter Diablo Cody wrote her first film in just a few months at a Minnesota Starbucks. (And not just any Starbucks—a Starbucks inside a Target.) Juno won Best Original Screenplay in 2008.


 * Mark Boal ... Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay ... 82nd ... 2009 ... The Hurt Locker

Before turning to film, Mark Boal honed his writing and research skills as a journalist. That came in handy as he wrote and produced The Hurt Locker, which won both Best Original Screenplay and Best Picture in 2010. That year, the film's director Kathryn Bigelow was the first woman to win Best Director. They teamed up again for Boal's second film, Zero Dark Thirty, in 2012. It was nominated for Best Original Screenplay and Best Picture again, but didn't win either award.


 * Geoffrey S. Fletcher ... Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay ... 82nd ... 2009 ... Precious

Most screenwriters start their careers with an original screenplay. Geoffrey Fletcher made his name with a heart-wrenching adaptation of the Sapphire novel Push. Precious won Best Adapted Screenplay in 2010, making Fletcher the first African American to win an Academy Award for writing. In 2014, John Ridley won the same award for 12 Years a Slave.
