I typed "Erin Brokovich" and it was refused. A bit of leniency, maybe?

If you don't really care about the spelling, you could consider accepting "Erin" or "Erin Br". There are so many ways to spell that name.

The quiz specifically asks for the movie an actress won for in a given year.... I don't believe that quizmaster intended for it to be inclusive.

It's the same thing with the male equivalent of this quiz. It has Tom Hanks listed for his wins for Philadelphia and Forrest Gump, when a good number of other actors on that quiz have won a Best Actor Oscar more than once.

was wondering why Boys Don’t Cry wasn’t accepted since it’s Swank’s first Best Actress win, and both of Leigh’s wins are listed.
