The oldest person to ever win an Oscar was Anthony Hopkins at the age of 83—making him a whopping 73 years older than the youngest winner, Tatum O'Neal, who was just 10 when she scooped her Academy Award.This year may not have nominees quite as old or young to compete with those legends, however, there are still some records to break.
