Sorry, was at work. Here you go.

FOAM BUNT WHIMOLL / KNOW GNOME / FLL GLINTIC / BIRDS ANATIDAE

1. Movie / Actor / Actor / Actor

2. If you're a genius, you'll figure it out. BTW, how are you at math?

3. There is one obvious clue with a first name of an actor. The other clue is next to the first but is for another actor and could be a bit of a reach.

4. Each of these actors are famous in their own right.

6. One of the Oscars was for a supporting actor. The other Oscar was for the other two actors... but it wasn't for acting.

GOOD WILL HUNTING / MATT DAMON / BEN AFFLECK / ROBIN WILLIAMS

Funny, I saw the "birds" clue right at the start and for some reason didn't come up with Williams. :crazy:

Congrats. ANATIDAE was the stretch clue. It's the family ducks are classed in. Duck is mascot for AFLAC is similar to Affleck. Like I said, it's a stretch.

Why, you dirty, rotten... Wait, that's not how it goes.

DIRTY ROTTEN SCOUNDRELS / STEVE MARTIN / MICHAEL CAINE

At least that's what I think it is because I believe you put too many letters in the first word, and not enough in the second one. Supposing I was correct, my now mushy brain will have a scramble in the morn for you.

Okay, I've got the movie and steve martin, but who else could the other actor be besides Michael Caine. The letters are all there. Frank Oz is the director.
