Correct answers so far:

1. Tom HANKS (Forrest Gump, 1994)
2. Daniel DAY-LEWIS (My Left Foot, 1989)
3. Spencer TRACY (Boys Town, 1938)
4. Jack LEMMON (Save the Tiger, 1973)
6. Gene HACKMAN (The French Connection, 1971)
8. Vivien LEIGH (Gone With The Wind, 1939)
9. Gary COOPER (High Noon, 1952)
10. Jodie FOSTER (The Accused, 1988)
11. Elizabeth TAYLOR (Butterfield 8, 1960)
12. Kevin SPACEY (American Beauty, 1999)
13. Katherine HEPBURN (Goes Who’s Coming To Dinner, 1967)
14. Jane FONDA (Klute, 1971)
15. Marlon BRANDO (On The Waterfront, 1954)

You still need to find 5 and 7.

5 isn’t FORD (Harrison was nominated once, for Witness in 1985, but didn’t win).

7 isn’t GAMBON (Michael has never been nominated). Neither is it GARBO (Greta was nominated three times but never won). And in either case, neither name can be made from the letters of ’Embarrassing’ or ‘Bank Manager’.

Both correct!

I don’t have my notes to hand, but I think the movies I had in mind were Gaslight and Raging Bull.
