Note
Certain award groups do not simply award one winner. They acknowledge several different recipients, have runners-up, and have third place. Since this is a specific recognition and is different from losing an award, runner-up mentions are considered wins in this award tally. For simplification and to avoid errors, each award in this list has been presumed to have had a prior nomination.

She has appeared in a number of critically acclaimed European and American films and television series. She subsequently received a number of awards, primarily during the 1940s and 1950s, though she did receive some recognition during the 1930s, 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s. She is best remembered for her roles as Ilsa Lund in Casablanca, and Alicia Huberman in Notorious,[1] but despite the critical success of both films, she was a notable absence from the nominations they received in their subsequent awards seasons.[2][3]
The first role for which she received major awards recognition was for her role as a young woman traumatized by the Spanish war in the epic war film For Whom the Bell Tolls (1943), for which she was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actress.[4] That same year she starred as the romantic love interest in the war drama Casablanca (1943). The following year she played a young woman manipulated by her husband in the George Cukor directed psychological thriller Gaslight (1944) for which she won the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress in a Motion Picture – Drama and was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actress.[5] She then played a compassionate nun in the musical dramedy The Bells of St. Mary's (1945) for which she earned her a second consecutive Golden Globe Award for Best Actress in a Motion Picture – Drama as well as a nomination for the Academy Award for Best Actress.[6][7][8] For her portrayals of the title role in the historical epic Joan of Arc (1948) and title role in the historical drama Anastasia (1956) she received further Oscar-nominations winning her second Academy Award for the later.
Outside of the United States, she also received recognition in the United Kingdom for her performance as Gladys Aylward in the British war film The Inn of the Sixth Happiness, for which she was nominated for the BAFTA for Best Foreign Actress, though she went on to lose to Simone Signoret for Room at the Top.[9] In Italy, too, she came to prominence for her role in Europe '51, an Italian neorealist film, for which she won the Nastro d'Argento for Best Actress.[10] In Germany, she received five Bambi Awards,[11] whilst in France, she was awarded an honorary César in 1976.[12] After winning two Academy Awards she won her third, this time in the category of Best Supporting Actress, for 1974's Murder on the Orient Express, based on the Agatha Christie novel of the same name, for which she also received her first and only BAFTA Award. Her Oscar nomination for the Ingmar Bergman tragedy movie Autumn Sonata (1978) was the first she had received for a film in her native language of Swedish.
On the Broadway stage, Bergman played the title role in the Maxwell Anderson play Joan of Lorraine (1947) for which she won the Tony Award for Best Actress in a Play. On the West End stage, she played Helen Lancaster in the N. C. Hunter play Waters of the Moon (1978). On television, she won two Primetime Emmy Awards for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Limited Series or Movie for her portrayals of The Governess in Startimes production of "The Turn of the Screw" (1960) and the Prime Minister of Israel Golda Meir in the television film A Woman Called Golda (1982).
Bergman won three Academy Awards for acting - two for Best Actress, and one for Best Supporting Actress.[13] She remains tied for second place in terms of Oscars won, along with Walter Brennan (all for Best Supporting Actor),[14] Jack Nicholson (two for Best Actor, and one for Best Supporting Actor),[15] Meryl Streep (two for Best Actress, and one for Best Supporting Actress),[16] Daniel Day-Lewis (all for Best Actor),[17] and Frances McDormand (all for Best Actress).[18] Katharine Hepburn still holds the record, with four (all for Best Actress).[19]
