	The Academy Awards: Hollywood at its worst
		The 71st Academy Awards ceremony Sunday night was a relatively unpleasant spectacle for the most part: a celebration of conformism, vulgarity and mediocrity.
		Who wins the top awards and who doesn't at one of these affairs is largely the outcome of a months-long battle, going on behind the scenes, between rival studios that spend millions of dollars to promote their individual products.
		The bestowing of the honorary award on Elia Kazan certainly represented the moral pivot of the ceremony.

		Carey and Houston performing the song at the 71st Academy Awards in March 1999.

		As Carey is part Latin, Houston and Carey were also nominated for Outstanding Performance of a Song for a Feature Film at the ALMA Awards, but they did not win.

		For nearly 70 years, the secrecy and integrity of the Academy Awards balloting process has been protected by PricewaterhouseCoopers in partnership with the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.
		When lead balloting partner Bill Miller arrives at the Academy in his car before the day of the show, someone asks him "What if you get hit by a truck?" As a precaution, the two partners always take completely different routes when driving to the ceremony, and are accompanied by armed guards.
		The relationship with the Academy is the cornerstone of the firm's global Entertainment and Media Practice, which leads the industry in business advisory services.

	71st Academy Awards: POVERTY OF CHARACTER
		The Academy Awards are the best pageantry the United States has, while serving absolutely no public interest.
		And of course, all native Californians who have lived anywhere near the filmmaking industry understand that the outcome of the Awards is a political process based on the advertising budget behind the nominees.
		The Academy Awards are the industry's opportunity to toot its own horn.

	71st Annual Academy Awards
		Sophia Loren presented the award to Roberto Beningni, who was very excited, anyway, and was obviously attracted to Sophia, who was wearing one of those pointy 1950's style bras that'll poke your eyes out if you look at them wrong (which most men have been known to do).
		I sincerely feel the award should not have been given to Kazan and that anyone who stood and applauded in his honor is a traitor to all that America (and the rest of the civilized-world) stands for.

	Oscar 2000 - Oscars 99
		Unlike 1998, when it was easier to spot the winners than the losers, at the 1999 awards there were plenty of worthy nominees but no clear-cut favourites.
		But that is what made the 1999 award show such compulsive viewing for real film anoraks rather than the mainstream audience which craves the sight of more obvious mainstream box-office fodder - fodder such as Titanic.
		After 19 awards they were tied again at four all, Janusz Kaminski winning best cinematography for Ryan after Sandy Powell had taken costume design for Shakespeare.

	CelebStyle: Hollywood Gems (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Whoopi Goldberg made history when she wore $41 million dollars worth of jewels to the 1999 Academy Awards-the most expensive amount of jewels ever worn by one person at the Oscars.
		At the 68th Annual Academy Awards, award winner Mira Sorvino brought back memories of the golden days of Hollywood, wearing her hair in an elegant retro style, along with a 110-carat princess diamond necklace (valued at $1,250,000) and 20-carat matching earclips ($350,000), all set in platinum.
		Director Jessica Yu, who was loaned a diamond bracelet and diamond drop earrings worth a total of $205,000 to wear to the 1997 Academy Awards, was horrified when she realized a diamond was missing from the bracelet.

	71st Annual Academy Award Winners (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		His shocking win at the SAG Awards only confirms just how loved, let alone liked, he is. Not bad for a guy who only a year ago was most widely known stateside as the star of the misbegotten Son of the Pink Panther.
		Duvall won the SAG Award, but a win for him here would be less for his performance (which was just good, but stood out in an unimpressive film) than his star gravity--and that scenario is not out of the question.
		The Academy was voting with their mind, casting their ballots for one of the major nod-getters, instead of with their eyes--which would have shown that What Dreams May Come featured the best art direction of the five nominees.

	ZNet Commentary
		Despite all the controversy stirred by the decision of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to give director Elia Kazan an honorary Oscar for Lifetime Achievement, Sunday’s 71st Academy Awards ceremony passed with no disruption and little commentary.
		Clearly the Academy’s 39-member board (that voted unanimously to approve the award) miscalculated in assuming the movie industry’s shameful and hypocritical fllist war no longer matters.
		And as the Academy was forced to recall, for all his great and lasting achievements in film and theater, Kazan is still remembered as Hollywood’s greatest stool pigeon.

	Review: 71st Annual Academy Awards--AllYourTV.com
		Kazan was awarded a lifetime achievement award by the Academy, and the decision was protested by a number of members.
		When the award was finally presented by director Martin Scorcese and actor Robert DeNiro, Kazan seemed listless and somewhat befuddled.
		And two award winners stood out: Roberto Benigni was so excited he walked across the backs of the seats and hopped his way up the stairs.

	CNN - 71st Annual Academy Awards
		History, dark and light, is the theme of the 71st Annual academy Awards, with two films set in the 16th Century -- "Elizabeth" and "Shakespeare in Love" -- pitted against "Saving Private Ryan," "The Thin Red Line" and "Life Is Beautiful," all set in World War II.
		For many in Hollywood, the seminal issue of the 71st Annual Academy Awards ceremony on Sunday won't be which movie is named Best Picture, but rather who will and who won't applaud when legendary director Elia Kazan is given a Lifetime Achievement Award for his remarkable contribution to the art of filmmaking.

	Elia Kazan
		The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences' decision to present director Elia Kazan with a lifetime achievement award has angered many of those affected by fllisting.
		Some of the surviving "Hollywood 10" who served jail time for refusing to testify against others before the committee are protesting the award, as are many others in the entertainment industry.
		Outside of the Academy of Motion Picture Art Sciences, the bulk of opinion seems to be on the other side.

		Four hours later, she was feeling more apologetic: “While you were watching this show, another century has gone by,” she told the crowd in the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion and the audience watching at home.
		Billed as the last Oscars of the millennium, the 71st Academy Awards, televised live from Los Angeles Sunday night, threatened to go on into the next one.
		As for the heavily ballyhooed political protest over giving the Governors’ Award to famous director and stool pigeon Elia Kazan, it was a trivial fizzle.

	First Recap of the 71st Academy Awards!
		The Oscar telecast this year clocked in at 4 hours and 2 minutes, setting a new record as the longest Oscar telecast in history.
		Harvey Weinstein's Miramax campaigning for SHAKESPEARE worked, and that film was clearly in the Academy's mind when they did their voting.
		And as expected, his acceptance of both awards was hilarious and memorable.

	Academy Awards
		Here is an honest review of what happened at the awards, written by someone who wasn't there, wasn't sponsored by any corporation, and isn't scared to say what just about everyone thinks.
		Being that there were lots of awards, meaning there's lots to bitch about, here's the play by play list of the awards, who they went to, and thoughts on Oscar's butt.
		And, as it has for the past three years, the Academy Awards went out with a sad simmer, instead of a happy BANG by predictably choosing The English Patient as Best Picture.

	The 71st Academy Awards Ate My Balls - 3/22/99
		Apparently the ceremony itself was structured more like a variety show than like a day in the life of death, which was how it was structured last year and the year before and the year before that.
		Most of the acts, however, were just demos of the phantom brain phenomenon, a popular medical curiosity where the brain is no longer there, but somehow enough of a phantom of it is there to still think it's still there.
		Anyway, the big winner of the night was somebody who won the coveted Nobel Prize or Academy Wart for not being Sarah Michelle Gellar, and then everybody else who showed up won the coveted consolation Nobel Prize or Academy Wart for hovering just on the brink of being monstrous parodies of themselves.

		Along with the Academy's new "Sunday at the Oscars" promotional campaign came along a little insider intro program called Countdown to Oscar which was pretty much unbearable to watch, but I'll get to that in a moment.
		This year the Academy had this half-hour program preceding the actual event and it was hosted by Geena Davis and Jim Moret and I couldn't have been more bored out of my skull.
		But the Academy loves Davis and even gave her an award all those years ago, so, that's all, no more ranting about her or they'll never hire me to sweep that red carpet.
