Sophia Loren received an Academy Award for Best Actress for her performance in Two Women and a Best Actress nomination for Marriage Italian-Style.

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has given Academy Awards to actors and actresses for foreign language (non-English) performances in films, with the first award given in 1961. For an actor or actress to be eligible for any of the Academy Awards for Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actor, or Best Supporting Actress for a foreign language performance in a film produced outside the United States, the film must have been commercially released in Los Angeles County and have English subtitles with the theatrical release.[1]

Marion Cotillard received an Academy Award for Best Actress for her performance in La Vie en Rose and a Best Actress nomination for Two Days, One Night.

As of 2015, 32 actors and actresses have been nominated for Academy Awards for foreign language performances.[2] Seven of these actors and actresses have received Academy Awards for their performances. Six have had multiple Academy Award nominations: Marcello Mastroianni (three Best Actor nominations),[3] Sophia Loren (one Academy Award for Best Actress for Two Women and another Best Actress nomination),[4] Liv Ullmann (two Best Actress nominations),[5] Isabelle Adjani (two Best Actress nominations),[6] Javier Bardem (two Best Actor nominations)[7] and Marion Cotillard (one Academy Award for Best Actress for La Vie en Rose and another Best Actress nomination for Two Days, One Night).[8]

Sophia Loren and Marion Cotillard are the only actresses to win an Academy Award for Best Actress for foreign language performances, Italian and French respectively. Cotillard is the only actor to receive two Oscar nominations for foreign films without having these films nominated for an Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film. She is also the only actor to be nominated for a Belgian film ("Two Days, One Night").
