		Afraid that Littlefeather would make a militant speech if she were called on to receive an award for Brando, academy officials held a panicked powwow.

		YOU LIKE ME? Oscar audiences were befuddled when Brando sent Littlefeather to say he was refusing his ''Godfather'' award
		Before the ceremony, says Littlefeather, now a holistic healer near San Francisco, she ''prayed in earnest for the message to be delivered properly.'' But the night soon returned to the traditional airiness, and John Wayne closed the surreal show by leading, off-key, a sing-along of ''You Oughta Be in Pictures,'' whose words almost nobody remembered.
		The Academy story is that Moore took the statue home, then returned it; it was later given to Charlie Chaplin to replace a damaged award.

		I made no Oscar predictions, placed no bets, nor rooted for any particular movie, actor, techie, designer, or song to win.
		We've also watched enough Oscar ceremonies to have figured out how the Academy thinks and to know that Michael Moore lost his chance for another Oscar any time soon with his speech when he won for Bowling for Columbine.
		This should be known as The Sacheen Littlefeather Factor.

	The 13 WORST Moments in Academy Awards History!
		7) From 1972 -- the infamous moment when Marlon Brando sent Sacheen Littlefeather in his place when he won Best Actor for THE GODFATHER.
		Definitely one of the more infamous moments in Oscar history, Littlefeather, who actually was not even Apache Indian as she said, but merely an actress, came on stage to say that Brando could not accept his Oscar because of the film industry's treatment of Native Americans.
		Any Oscar winner choosing to use the Academy Awards as a pulpit for their political propaganda is always a moment in bad taste, but Brando outdid everyone with this one.

		After making a comeback in Godfather, Brando won his second Oscar.
		Instead of accepted what he called "a door prize," he sent up Native American activist Sacheen Littlefeather to refuse befuddled presenter Roger Moore and issue a scathing speech about the Federal Government's treatment of Native Americans.
