Let me ask a different question actually

During the filming of which movie did Ewan McGregor meet his lifelong best friend ?



The serpent's kiss



You can't make a rainbow without a little rain.
What 1963 film classic opens with the death of a character named Smiler Grogan?

I'm not 100% sure about the dead man's name, but I know that the movie It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World opens with a man's death, and I think it's from 1963.

OPEN FLOOR.



15 actors have done it, but I'm only asking you to name two. Name two actors who won Oscars on their first nomination?
I'm thinking Timothy Hutton, for Ordinary People, and Barkhad Abdi, for Captain Phillips.

Ok, maybe there are more that fit the criteria, but what's a pre-MCU film that features 3 notable actors from 3 different MCU properties in significant lead/supporting roles?

Hint: Without going too far in time, there is one Best Picture winner that fits the criteria, and a second one that's really close because it was released the same year as Iron Man.
