    		"Only three films have won Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, and Best Screenplay, a feat which is known as winning the "Big Five" or the Oscar "Grand Slam." These films are: It Happened One Night (1934), One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975), and The Silence of the Lambs (1991)."
