answer to the movie question is that Harvey Keitel played Pontius Pilate in Damiano Damiani's underrated 1987 The Inquiry which features Keith Carradine as a detective sent from Rome to investigate the death of Jesus. Contains one of the all-time great Keitel lines--

"Well, he didn't just get up and walk away..."

next question is one Daph gave me that I didn't get--which two actors have been nominated for Oscars in each of the last five decades?
