ANSWER: Amy Irving (‘Yentl’). Harvey Keitel and Jack Nicholson were nominated for Razzies for ‘Last Temptation’ (1988) and ‘Hoffa’ (1992), respectively, but not Oscars. Roberto Benigni won the Oscar for ‘Life Is Beautiful’ (1997), of course, but that role wasn’t up for a Razzie. He won a Razzie for ‘Pinocchio’ (2002).
