    		The only one I can come up with is Clint Eastwood. The film was Million Dollar Baby and the song was I Talk to the Trees from Paint Your Wagon.

    		Yay RMG! The song was the B-side on the number one hit "Wandering Star" sung in memorably gruff fashion by Lee Marvin.
    I had forgotten all about "Million Dollar Baby" so that's two films he has won Best Director for. He also wrote incidental music for "Unforgiven".
