The 38th Academy Awards, honoring the best in film for 1965, were held on April 18, 1966 at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium in Santa Monica, California. They were hosted by Bob Hope.

The ceremony was broadcast on the ABC network and was the first to be broadcast live in color.

The two most nominated films were The Sound of Music and Doctor Zhivago, each with ten nominations. Although both films ultimately won five awards, the winner of Best Picture was 20th Century Fox's and Robert Wise's The Sound of Music, adapted from the Rodgers and Hammerstein's Broadway musical. Both movies are among the most successful films ever and are in the top 10 adjusted films ever made.^[1]

In the best actress category, Julie Christie (Darling) beat out Julie Andrews, who had won the previous year for Mary Poppins. Had Andrews won again for The Sound Of Music, she would have been the second actress to win the top trophy two years in a row. The first back-to-back best actress winner was Luise Rainer, who won in 1936 for The Great Ziegfeld and in 1937 for The Good Earth.

Lynda Bird Johnson, daughter of President Johnson, attended the Academy Awards presentation and was escorted by actor George Hamilton.
