Most famous Hollywood actors and directors have never won an Oscar. Despite numerous nominations over their careers, many talented and deserving actors go home empty-handed. For example, Peter O’Toole, one of the greatest actors of all time, was nominated for an Oscar a couple of times, but he never won.
Even Alfred Hitchcock, one of the best directors of all time and didn’t won an Oscar. And Stanley Kubrick only received one Oscar for visual effects. Not just them, there are a lot of other famous actors and the list goes on and on.
