Question: How many times did the star of the film  "Beau James" host the Academy Awards show ?
Context: Bob Hope, KBE, KC*SG, KSS (born Leslie Towns Hope; May 29, 1903 – July 27, 2003) was an American comedian, vaudevillian, actor, singer, dancer, athlete and author.  With a career spanning nearly 80 years, Hope appeared in more than 70 short and feature films, including a series of "Road" movies.  In addition to hosting the Academy Awards show nineteen times, more than any other host, he appeared in many stage productions and television roles, and was the author of 14 books.  The song "Thanks for the Memory" is widely regarded as his signature tune. Beau James is a 1957 film based on a non-fiction book of the same name by Gene Fowler.  The movie stars Bob Hope in a rare dramatic role as Jimmy Walker, the colorful but controversial Mayor of New York City from 1926-32. The 11th Academy Awards were held on February 23, 1939, at the Biltmore Hotel in Los Angeles, California.  It was the first Academy Awards show without any official host.  This was also the first ceremony in which a foreign language film (Jean Renoir's "Grand Illusion") was nominated for Best Picture. The Academy Film Archive is part of the Academy Foundation, established in 1944 with the purpose of organizing and overseeing the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences’ educational and cultural activities, including the preservation of motion picture history.  Although the current incarnation of the Academy Film Archive began in 1991, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences acquired its first film in 1929.  Located in Hollywood, California at the Pickford Center for Motion Picture Study, the Archive has a diverse range of moving image material.  The Archive's collection comprises 85,000 titles and 190,000 separate items, including early American cinema, a vast collection of documentary films, filmed and taped interviews, amateur and private home movies of Hollywood legends, makeup and sound test reels, and a wide selection of experimental film, as well as Academy Award-winning films, Academy Award-nominated films, and a complete collection of every Academy Awards show since 1949.  Since acquiring the Packard Humanities Institute Collection, the Archive has the world's largest known trailer collection.  The Archive is also concerned with the preservation and restoration of films, as well as new technologies and methods of preservation, restoring over 800 titles  of historical and artistic importance. The 51st Academy Awards ceremony, organized by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS), honored films released in 1978 and took place on April 9, 1979, at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion in Los Angeles beginning at 7:00 p.m. PST / 10:00 p.m. EST.  During the ceremony, AMPAS presented Academy Awards (commonly referred to as Oscars) in 22 categories.  The ceremony, televised in the United States by ABC, was produced by Jack Haley Jr. and directed by Marty Pasetta.  Comedian and talk show host Johnny Carson hosted the show for the first time.  Three days earlier in a ceremony held at The Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, California, on April 6, the Academy Awards for Technical Achievement were presented by hosts Gregory Peck and Christopher Reeve. The Academy Honorary Award – instituted in 1948 for the 21st Academy Awards (previously called the Special Award, which was first presented in early 1929) – is given annually by the Board of Governors of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS) to celebrate motion picture achievements that are not covered by existing Academy Awards, although prior winners of competitive Academy Awards are not excluded from receiving the Honorary Award.  Unless otherwise specified, Honorary Award recipients receive the same gold Oscar statuettes received by winners of the competitive Academy Awards.  Unlike the Special Achievement Award instituted in 1972 (and discontinued in 1995), those on whom the Academy confers its Honorary Award do not have to meet "the Academy's eligibility year and deadline requirements."  Like the Special Achievement Award, the Special Award and Honorary Award have been used to reward significant achievements of the year that did not fit in existing categories, subsequently leading the Academy to establish several new categories, and to honor exceptional career achievements, contributions to the motion picture industry, and service to the Academy.  The Academy Honorary Award is often awarded in preference to those with noted achievements in motion pictures who have nevertheless never won an Academy Award.  Thus, many of its recipients are Classic Hollywood stars, such as Lillian Gish, Barbara Stanwyck, Kirk Douglas, and Lauren Bacall. Under the patronage of Prince Albert II of Monaco the 17th annual World Music Awards were conducted at the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood, California on August 31, 2005.  This is only the second time that the awards show has been held outside of Monaco.  The five-hour awards show was co-hosted by Carmen Electra and "Desperate Housewives"' James Denton.  The awards are based solely on record sales certified by the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry, a London-based trade group that represents the major record labels.  Proceeds are donated to the Prince's favorite charity: the Monaco Aide and Presence Foundation.  Usher, Kenny "Babyface" Edmonds, Amerie, Rihanna, and Teairra Marí paid tribute to Destiny's Child, who received an award for being the best-selling female group of all time.  Patti LaBelle dedicated her performance of "I'll Stand By You" to the victims of Hurricane Katrina as did Stevie Wonder and Kidd Rock when they closed the show at 2am with a duet of "Living for the City". The 70th Academy Awards ceremony, organized by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS), took place on March 23, 1998, at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles beginning at 6:00 p.m. PST / 9:00 p.m. EST.  During the show, AMPAS presented Academy Awards (commonly referred to as Oscars) in 24 categories honoring films released in 1997.  The ceremony, which was televised in the United States by ABC, was produced by Gil Cates and directed by Louis J. Horvitz.  Actor Billy Crystal hosted the show for the sixth time.  He first presided over the 62nd ceremony held in 1990, and he had hosted the previous year's gala.  Nearly a month earlier in an event held at the Regent Beverly Wilshire Hotel in Beverly Hills, California on February 28, the Academy Awards for Technical Achievement were presented by host Ashley Judd. This is a list of Polish Academy Award winners and nominees.  This list details the performances of Polish actors, actresses, and films that have either been submitted or nominated for, or have won, an Academy Award.  This list is current as of the 80th Academy Awards ceremony held on February 24, 2008.  There were 12 Academy Awards given to Polish filmmakers or their work (see Foreign Film category), including two Honorary Academy Awards and a Technical Achievement Award.  The category of Cinematography has the strongest presence of Polish filmmakers, with two wins (both by Janusz Kamiński) and five other nominations (including two noms for Kamiński).  As of that, the cinematographer Janusz Kamiński is the most Oscar-awarded Polish filmmaker.  The second most-awarded Pole was designer Anton Grot, who won one Academy Award and was nominated to the Oscars five times more.  The director Roman Polanski won an Oscar and was nominated four more times (additionally, "Knife in the Water", film directed and written by him was also nominated).  The composer Bronislau Kaper was awarded an Oscar and was nominated three times more. Jimmy is a musical with a score by Bill Jacob, lyrics by Patti Jacob and a book by Melville Shavelson and Morrie Ryskind.  The musical describes the rise and fall of New York City Mayor Jimmy Walker, whose career was marred by corruption it was a romanticized version of Walker's tenure as mayor as presented in the 1957 film "Beau James", starring Bob Hope.  The film was based on a biography of Walker, also titled "Beau James", written by Gene Fowler.
