These are the films that have won more than one best picture award, usually by winning Best Picture in its country of origin, then Best Foreign Film in another. For the sake of this list, I limited the list of recognized industry bodies to those from Australia, China, France, Germany, Great Britain, Italy, India, Japan, Mexico, Russia, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, and the United States. I then supplemented that list with Best Film winners from the Gramado & Ouagadougou Film Festivals to gain representation from all continents.

I included award categories for feature-length animation, but omitted shorts and documentaries. I also included variations on Best Film and Best Foreign Film, most notably:

-- the Donatello for Best European Film
-- the Goya for Best Iberoamerican Film
-- the Nika for Best Film of the CIS and Baltics
-- the Hong Kong Film Award for Best Chinese Language Film from the Two Coasts
-- the Ariel for Best Latin-American Film
-- the Golden Kikito for Best Latin Film

All titles are sorted first by number of honors, then year of release. The leader (with 9) is Bong Joon Ho's "Parasite" which won Best Film in South Korea and Best Foreign Film in Australia, Great Britain, France, Italy, Sweden, and Japan, plus two Best Picture Oscars.
