Frank Lloyd was Scotland's first Academy Award winner and is unique in film history having received three Oscar nominations in 1929 for his work on a silent film (DIVINE LADY), a part-talkie (WEARY RIVER) and a full talkie (DRAG). He won for Divine Lady. He was nominated and won again in 1933 for his adaptation of Noel Coward's CAVALCADE and received a further Best Director nomination in 1935 for perhaps his most successful film MUTINY ON THE BOUNTY, which he produced, scripted and directed.
