FUN FACT: Since 1950, the statuettes have been legally encumbered by the requirement that neither winners nor their heirs may sell the statuettes without first offering to sell them back to the Academy for $1. If a winner refuses to agree to this stipulation, then the Academy keeps the statuette.
LATEST NEWS: Last week, the Academy unveiled the set for this year's show. I dunno, seems a little Hollywood tacky to me, circa shoulder padded gowns and white suits with neon shirts. Add a shag rug and it was my family basement for most of the 80's.
