1948
24 Marzo 1949 AMPAS Theater, Melrose Avenue
presenta Robert Montgomery

Commento

Il 24 marzo 1949 ci si trova tutti all’Academy Theatre con soli 950 posti disponibili, tutto questo accade perché per non violare le leggi sull’antitrust le più importanti majors erano state costrette a rinunciare alle proprie sale cinematografiche, così da tagliare le spese, quindi togliere sostegno economico allo spettacolo degli Oscar.
Notte gelida e con neve, parcheggi distanti e polemiche, ma il presidente Jean Hershalt chiese esplicitamente di non continuare la polemica, mentre, Robert Montgomery, maestro di cerimonia si presentò con uno smoking pieno di medaglie di guerra.
A ritirare il premio come miglior attore non ci fu Olivier, bensì il suo amico Douglas Fairbanks jr., ma tutti in sala sono poco convinti di questa scelta, mentre la Wyman, vincitrice per miglior attrice, va quasi in trance sul palco facendo cadere la borsa e barcollando.
Si chiude la serata in grande imbarazzo, un film inglese ha vinto il premio più importante, Hollywood rimane quanto mai perplessa, non si era mai vista una cosa simile fino a quel momento!
