Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaTo mark the occasion of Oscar's 70th birthday, the show featured a segment called "Oscar's Family Album" in which the Academy invited every living actor who had ever won an Oscar in the four acting categories, honorary recipients and some who had received the now defunct juvenile acting award. They were seated on riser benches and the camera went from actor to actor and announced their name and the film for which they had received an Oscar. Of the 134 recipients who were still living, 70 attended. Marlon Brando and George C. Scott who had both refused their Oscars years earlier were not invited. Due to a clerical error the invitation sent to Dorothy Malone did not arrive, an oversight which is said to have angered her.
- Quotes
Jack Nicholson: Thank you very much to the members of the Academy for this, and I - the other nominees, some of them are very good friends of mine. And I am honored to be on any list with you, Bobby, Dusty, and you and your father, Mr. Damon, my old bike pal Fonda. We're very proud of the picture. We had like, I don't know, I've had a sinking feeling all night right up till here. Something about it. We had Jim Brooks, Maria Kavanaugh, Kristi Zea, Bridget Johnson, Peter Andros*, Laura Ziskin, so many producers on the picture I can't remember them all. Mr. Andrus and Mr. Brooks wrote the script, cast Miss Hunt, Mr. Kinnear, Cuba Gooding, Skeet Ulrich, Shirley Knight - I know Gil Cates is starting to sweat back there, now isn't he, Bill, isn't he? Go ahead with it? Alright. Sure. I would like to thank everybody here tonight for looking so good. I'd like to dedicate this to Miles Davis, Robert Mitchum, Shorty Smith, Joe Vitrano*, Ray Kramer, Rupert Crosse, J.T. Walsh and Luana Anders. They're not here anymore, but they're in my heart. And I thank you very much.
