In addition to her two wins, Lange has been nominated for four other Oscars, for her leading roles in “Frances,” “Country,” “Sweet Dreams” and “Music Box.” She has also received a total of six Emmy nominations, including her two wins, and 14 Golden Globe nominations, with five wins.

The Kirk Douglas Award serves as an annual fundraiser for the film festival, which takes place in late January and early February in the coastal town north of Los Angeles. The first award went to Douglas himself, with subsequent recipients including Forest Whitaker, Robert DeNiro, Michael Douglas, Harrison Ford, Quentin Tarantino, Ed Harris and John Travolta.
