One. On March 30, 1987, Paul Newman won his only competitive Academy Award -- the 1986 Best Actor Oscar for his performance in "The Color of Money."

But Newman received two other Oscar statuettes during his career. On March 24, 1986, he was presented an honorary Oscar for "his many and memorable compelling screen performances and for his personal integrity and dedication to his craft." On March 21, 1994, he was honored with the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award for his charitable works.
