Star Oscar Show Absence Noted by Tony Curtis
Hollywood veteran Tony Curtis explains he will not attend the Academy Awards on April 18. He says stars avoid the event to escape being used to sell cookies and shampoo, criticizing sponsor ties and suggesting a commercial-free ceremony funded by studios. Curtis longs for the bygone, intimate industry gatherings and contrasts them with today’s televised spectacle.
