Two For One, None For All

The 1997 blockbuster Titanic was the first movie to have two performers nominated for Oscars for their portrayals of the same character; Kate Winslet was nominated for Best Actress as young Rose and Gloria Stuart was nominated for Best Supporting Actress in the old Rose role. (both lost)

The same two performance/same character situation happened again a few years later with the 2001 film Iris and again Winslet was involved. She was nominated for Best Supporting Actress in the younger title role while Judi Dench was nominated for Best Actress as the older Iris. (both lost)
