O'Toole Scored 8 Oscar Nods, but Won None In his storied career, stage and screen actor Peter O'Toole, who died Saturday at age 81 following a long bout of illness, dynamically pronounced countless memorable characters, from the daring T.E. Lawrence in "Lawrence of Arabia" to amorous Maurice in "Venus." He earned four Golden Globes and an Emmy for his work, and holds the record for the most acting Oscar nominations without a win - eight.
