Since 1951 (the first year of the Globes) there have been 32 double winners. Will Moonlight be number 33? Image via: Youtube The powerful adaptation of Solomon Northup’s memoir, 12 Years a Slave picked up 3 Oscars and 1 Golden Globe award. Image via: Youtube Argo was a based on a true story (American embassy employees hiding in Iran during and after the revolution), obviously getting a very loose adaptation. It picked up 3 Oscars and 2 Golden Globes. Image via: YouTube A mega hit that combines love, poverty, crime and ‘Who Wants to be a Millionaire’ with Mumbai, beautiful and ugly at the same time serving as the backdrop to the story, Slumdog Millionaire won 8 Academy Awards and 4 Golden Globes. Image via: Youtube With Return of the King, the Academy and Globes wanted to reward Peter Jackson for the entire trilogy, not just the final film. It won 11 Oscars and 4 Golden Globes. Image via: YouTube The movie based on the life of John Nash, A Beautiful Mind, won 4 Academy Awards and grossed over $300 million worldwide. Not bad for a biography. Image via: YouTube Gladiator made sword and sandal films cool again, although it stands above the rest in quality and its longevity, not to mention producing quotable lines. It won 5 Oscars and 2 Golden Globes. Image via: YouTube American Beauty showed us how much it sucks to live in the suburbs, on the way picking up 5 Oscars and 3 Golden Globes. Image via: YouTube Personally, I never understood the hype surrounding Titanic, but I guess $2.1 billion, 11 Academy Awards and 4 Golden Globes show how much I know. Image via: YouTube I’m with Elaine on this one… The English Patient sucks. But it made close to 10 times its budget, won 9 Oscars and 2 Golden Globes.

Image via: YouTube The first in Oliver Stone’s Vietnam trilogy, Platoon won 5 Academy Awards and 3 Golden Globes. Image via: YouTube Out of Africa won 7 Academy Awards and 3 Golden Globes. Interestingly it has a 56% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. I find it quite boring as well.

Image via: YouTube A story about love, love and love, Terms of Endearment ended up winning 5 Academy Awards and 4 Golden Globes. It also had an awful sequel in 1996, 13 years after the first movie. Image via: YouTube After Ordinary People, Timothy Hutton was supposed to become a mega star. He’s had a nice career, but it was never as huge as the expectations. The film won 4 Oscars and 5 Golden Globes. Image via: YouTube In Kramer vs Kramer we learned how ugly divorce can be. The film won 5 Academy Awards and 4 Golden Globes. Image via: YouTube A story about the ultimate underdog was the ultimate underdog that won. Rocky made over $225 million on a $1.1 million budget. It also won 3 Oscars. Image via: YouTube One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest won 5 Oscars and 6 Golden Globes. Image via: YouTube The Godfather might be the most influential film on this list.
