Saoirse Ronan is nominated for her supporting role in Atonement in which she plays a 13-year-old girl, but the young actress is actually just a couple of years older than her character. She was born in 1993 — quite the contrast from 83-year-old Ruby Dee who is nominated in the same category! Take the quiz to see how much you know about Saoirse's budding career.

2Thanks ovenmitt! I don't know why I made that slip — I just posted a Ruby's profile this morning! Maybe because they're two shades of pink / red
3Cool! Saoirse's acting was great, and although Ruby Dee was also amazing in American Gangster, I'm happy to see that she's receiving recognition for her good work. It must be hard to be an Oscar judge sometime, to choose between men and women who all deserve to win.
4I really liked her in Atonement.
