Best Answer

The first movie to win 3 Academy Awards actually won 5 awards.

In 1934, the smash hit, "It Happened One Night," won the Oscar for the following:

Best Picture

Actor: Clark Gable

Actress: Claudette Colbert

Director: Frank Capra

Writing: Robert Riskin

This movie held the record for winning the most Oscar's from 1934 - 1939. "Gone with the Wind," would win 8 Academy Awards, and hold the record from 1939 - 1959. "Ben - Hur, won 11 Academy Awards, and held the title from 1959 - 1997. In 1997, the movie, "Titanic," also one 11 Academy Awards.

So, as it stands, no one movie holds a record for the most Oscars. But, two movies are tied for receiving the most.
