1956
27 Marzo 1957 RKO Pantages Theatre
presenta Jerry Lewis da Hollywood, Celeste Holm da New York
Collegamento televisivo con la NBC

Commento

La serata del 27 marzo 1957 è sfavillante sia per le star presenti (Robert Stack e sua moglie, Shelly Winters con il suo nuovo fidanzato Antony Franciosa, Anthony Quinn, Federico Fellini, Anna Magnani, Elizabeth Taylor con il nuovo marito Michael Todd, che gli regalò un diadema di diamanti da 25 mila dollari), sia per il film in concorso i più lunghi che si siano mai visti insieme.
Presenta Jerry Lewis e subito Micheal Todd consegna l’Oscar ai costumi, quello per miglior film straniero fu per “La strada” di Fellini, che seduto lo fece ritirare al produttore Dino De Laurentis, mentre il vincitore del miglior soggetto fu un certo Robert Rich, ma nessuno sapeva chi era, solo dopo si seppe che era uno pseudonimo di Dalton Trumbo, finito sulla lista nera del maccartismo.
La Magnani con abito di stale di cincillà e occhiali scuri premiò Yul Brynner. La miglior attrice è Ingrid Bergman, che non essendo in sala fece ritirare il premio da Cary Grant che disse: “Cara Ingrid, se puoi sentirmi o vedermi, sappi che tutti noi ti inviamo il nostro amore e la nostra ammirazione”. Scontato per quest’anno il miglior film perché già nelle scenografie della cerimonia c’era un enorme globo, che sulla sommità di una bobina decorava il palco.
Miglior Film (Rules changed in 1956: No one may be nominated for an Oscar if he has admitted Communist Party membership and has not renounced that membership, if he has refused to testify before a Congressional Committee or if he has refused to respond to a subpoena from such committee.)
