Golden Globes vs Oscars Quiz: Do You Know Who Won?

Updated: February 20, 2019 at 1:12 pm EST

The Academy Awards and the Golden Globes are arguably the two most prestigious film awards in the world. While they have very similar categories and purport to honor many of the same achievements, they are determined by a completely different set of voters.

As a result, their winners lists often differ greatly. There is almost always some modicum of overlap, especially in certain categories, but winning a Golden Globe in January does not mean that a movie, director, or actor will take home an Oscar in February, as well.

Do you fancy yourself a movie buff? Can you remember which movies and performers won an Oscar, a Golden Globe, or both for their greatest performances?

The quiz below will put your confidence — or lack thereof — to the test.
