At the 60th Academy Awards, Cher won best actress, while Douglas won best actor for *Wall Street*. *Moonstruck* and *Fatal Attraction* each received six nominations; *Moonstruck* also won adapted screenplay and supporting actress for Olympia Dukakis, while *Fatal Attraction* won none. Close was a four-time nominee at the time and has yet to win a competitive Oscar; she is due to receive an honorary award this month.
