Victims doubt that triumph of “Spotlight” generate a change – Terra Peru

“Spotlight” starring Michael Keaton, Rachel McAdams and Mark Ruffalo, covers the work of the Globe to discover how sexually dozens of priests of the archdiocese of Boston have abused children for decades thanks whitewash the highest levels of the Church, which involved moving priests from parish to parish.

The film premiered in November amid praise from victims who said they gave them some validation after years of silence. Even the cardinal of Boston, Sean O’Malley – appointed to replace Cardinal Bernard Law after his resignation in disgrace – said “Spotlight” was “a powerful and important film.”

But the victims do not expect the new status of the film as Oscar winner resulting in some of the things they have asked for years, as full transparency from the Church and the criminal prosecution church leaders who knew of the abuses but failed to report the perpetrators to the authorities.

“I do not think the Vatican or the archdiocese necessarily do more,” said Robert Costello, 54, victim of sexual abuse by a priest from Boston since the late 1960 to 1976.

“I think what will make (the movie) is to educate the general public about what has been their response or lack thereof,” Costello said, who reached a civil settlement with the archdiocese.

A series Globe followed revelations of sexual abuse in dioceses around the world. The reports won a Pulitzer Prize in 2003 for his public service.

Alexa MacPherson, who was abused in a parish in Boston for more than six years, since I was 3 years old, believes it is “wonderful” that “Spotlight” has won the award for Best Picture, but added: “the Vatican has said much but has not backed up by actions.”

“We want a criminal trial can take people who committed crimes and not to hide behind the sanctity of the walls of the Vatican,” said MacPherson, who also reached a civil settlement.

Walter Robinson, who led the team Spotlight Globe that brought up the scandal in 2002, believes the tape already had a major impact on both the victims and the Church itself , before receiving the Oscar for Best Picture and Best Original Screenplay.

“We are at a time when bishops from around the world praise the film … indications that the Church may take more seriously the matter of dealing with a problem that still persists “Robinson, who was played by Michael Keaton said.

The renewed attention received “Spotlight” comes at a time when one of the senior officials in the Church, the finance chief of the Vatican, Cardinal George Pell, he testified this week during a public hearing before the Royal Commission of Australia, responsible for investigating the response of the Church to the scandal of abuse in that country.

The Vatican newspaper on Monday praised the film for giving a voice to the “deep sorrow” of the faithful.

L’Osservatore cited acceptance speech Michael Sugar producer: “Papa Francisco, it’s time to protect children and restore faith” and said it was in positive tone.

Radio Vatican also praised “Spotlight”, which he described as a “rigorous and authentic” reconstruction.

The reaction represents a radical change in the Vatican’s position regarding a decade ago when the Vatican newspaper was a vehicle of defense against the response of the Holy See.

The Boston attorney Mitchell Garabedian, who has represented more than 2,000 victims of sexual abuse by priests, said that since the film was released he received calls from about 50 cases plus.

“The range of victims who have come today ranges from 25 to 80 years old,” said Garabedian. “The film has given the survivors the feeling of self-esteem and self-respect that was stolen and is now coming back.”

What was Cardinal Bernard Law, “central figure” pedophile scandal that tells Spotlight – Periodiquito

” the Church allowed the abuses of a priest for years. ”

This was the devastating headline which the research team from The Boston Globe accused in 2002 to the Archdiocese of Boston and its highest authority, Archbishop Bernard Law, to cover child sexual abuse by one of his priests.

Although initially the daily pointed to one leader, the research culminated in a series of stories accusing the church of Boston to cover the abuse of dozens of pedophile priests between 1984 and 2002.

Law, which the Globe described as “a central figure” in the scandal, finished presenting his resignation.

the story account “Spotlight,” winning Sunday with Academy Award for best picture.

Iñárritu DiCaprio and Oscar enshrined in that crown a “Spotlight” as best film

 But the ecclesiastical career of Law was not then ended, despite the pressure he suffered had been the most influential Catholic prelate in the United States.

The resignation was accepted by the then Pope John Paul II, who had appointed him cardinal of Santa Susana in 1985, and Law made his way towards the city on the remains today.

 “Live in Rome”, he confirmed to the BBC the Vatican press office.


 Santa Maria Maggiore

In fact, after the scandal, the cardinal was appointed in May 2004 archpriest of the Church of Santa Maria Maggiore, one of the four most symbolic basilicas of Rome, built between 432 and 440. years

 And in April 2005, celebrated a Mass in the Basilica of St. Peter’s Basilica.

The office in Santa Maria Maggiore is not particularly important within the Catholic hierarchy, it is rather honorific.

But Law not only maintained its influence but far from hiding, could be seen frequently in ecclesiastical acts or diplomats.

“it’s not lost his influence. he was a member of more congregations than any other bishop “he told the Guardian Robert Mickens, a journalist at the Vatican for years and editor of the journal Global Press, 2015.

 “Pope Francisco has done nothing to end abuses,” Peter Saunders, a member of the Vatican commission against pedophilia

 In Rome, Law became more influential even than he had been in Boston, explained in a lengthy article in September last year David Boeri, a reporter for American Public Radio (NPR) in Boston.

Law kept his place in the College of Cardinals and the Congregation for Bishops.

“what people did not understand then is that as archpriest had no power, but the charge of the Congregation of Bishops was enormously important, “he told BBC John Allen, an analyst at Vatican issues and reporter for the Boston Globe since 2014.

since there could influence the appointment of the US bishops over the years.

Law was never charged with anything or invited to testify about cases of child abuse.

“Some people said he went to Rome to avoid being judged,” says Allen, “but the Vatican always said if he had been quoted, have declared “.

However, the journalist believes that actually Law left because it became impossible for him to” work in that environment. “

Following the resignation, he wanted to play a role in the US.

“But whenever he appeared in public in the United States, a mess of protests was formed,” he says.


 “Emeritus”


 Asked about the trajectory of Law, the Vatican simply referred to the website of the Holy See Press Office, where you can see his biography.

But it is known that participated in the conclave in which Pope was elected Benedict XVI, although not in which elected Pope Francis, for then had already surpassed the 80 years age at which cardinals lose the right to elect the Pope.

and on his relationship with Francisco nothing more an anecdote reported by the Italian newspaper Il Fatto Quotidiano known.

According to the newspaper, Francisco met Law in his first visit to Santa Maria Maggiore, when no longer occupied a position in the church.

Francisco away immediately and as hereby said he did not want Law continued to go to the basilica.

But the Vatican has repeatedly denied information that Allen qualifies as one of the “urban legends” published after the appointment of Pope Francisco.

Allen found repeatedly Law at diplomatic receptions and public events and, although it was always “very friendly” never he gave an interview.

the cardinal, who has not given interviews to any media, retired in November 2011, although it is still “archpriest emeritus” of the Basilica and archbishop emeritus of Boston, according to page the Holy See press office.

Iñárritu as it appears in the credits of his latest film, won the Oscar for “Birdman” and repeated in 2016 with “The Revenant” ( “The Reborn”) with what remains the record in history three consecutive years of triumphs for foreign filmmakers.

Lubezki (1964) has been nominated eight times for an Oscar in 1995 with “A Little princess” Cuaron. Iñárritu (1963) has been nominated as a director on three occasions, first by “Babel” As a country 2006. Mexico has been nominated eight times in the category of Foreign Language Film (one for “Amores Perros” Iñárritu ), but has not won the prize.

“Leo, you’re ‘the reborn’, thank you for giving your heart, your soul, your talent,” he said Inarritu the star of the film, Leonardo DiCaprio, who moments before had won the award for best actor. “I’m very lucky to be here tonight. A lot of people do not have that luck,” he said and took the opportunity to speak out against racism in a year in which the Academy has been criticized for the lack of diversity among the nominees actors.

“that color of the skin to become as irrelevant as the long hair,” he said.

the message from the director comes at a time when Mexicans and immigrants have been targeted Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, who has even proposed building a wall that separates the United States from Mexico.

the memes that joined Trump and Iñárritu soon arrived , one had the Republican announcing it would build a barrier around the Mexican for other directors have an opportunity next year, referring to the border fence that the candidate intends to finish building to prevent the entry of unauthorized migrants.

Lubezki, who achieved his victory after being awarded by “Birdman” and “Gravity”, dedicated the honor to his wife and parents and colleagues extolled his nominees. Thanked especially Inarritu, whom he referred to as his “compadre”.

“I think I’m photographer luckiest in the world to be working with these directors,” said moments after the room press.

DiCaprio was cheered to the stage to accept his first Oscar after five nominations. He received the award for his portrayal of explorer Hugh Glass, who was attacked by a bear and abandoned by his companions to believe dead.

“To Mr. Alejandro Inarritu, to develop film history have open roads in these recent years. Thanks to you and Chivo to create a transcendent cinematic experience for everyone, “said the actor.

” the Revenant “, which topped the list of nominees with 12 nominations and came sweeping the season awards, at the end only got three, while “Spotlight” took the statuette for best film.

Among the population, the celebration of “the Revenant” is extended especially to DiCaprio, who has thousands of followers from his days of “Titanic,” which was partially filmed in Baja California, Mexico.

in Twitter, the actor was a tendency in the country after his triumph. On Facebook, a group of fans created a page titled “If Leonardo DiCaprio wins Oscar We’re going to the Angel!”. The page had 18,000 concerned.

After the ceremony, which ended around 11:00 pm on Sunday, began to gather at the monument dozens of people, mostly young, while shouting the official truncheon proposal on the Facebook page: “Leo, brother, you are now Mexican!”. They also met the proposal to bring teddy bears, referring to Bear film brutally attacks the character DiCaprio.

Other honked their car to go through the traffic circle surrounding the monument.

“for me I think it’s equally important one than the other,” said Victor Benitez, 25, on Oscar Inarritu and DiCaprio. “I think it’s very difficult to take a movie of almost two hours without much dialogue, without more important than the expression itself acting. I think he’s father that and I think he deserved it.”

Indira Alvarez, 23, arrived at Angel complete with crutches on a night that was supposed to be studying for an exam.

“I’ve never really been a fan,” said DiCaprio. “But now I love him with all my being … I felt great. I would never put me between a dead horse to cover me from the cold”.

Near midnight the group was celebrating Mexico.

“congratulations Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu, for another Oscar for best director. you’re a credit to your country,” wrote Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto, who also extended congratulations to the director of cinematography. “Congratulations Emmanuel Lubezki for a third consecutive Oscar. I welcome this new recognition of your great talent.”

The case of Lubezki is surprising since has been imposed in the category individually. Although there are photographers with four Oscars, marking three years in a row had not happened before.

This time the Academy Awards is similar to the boom had in the 1940s, director John Ford and photographer Leon Shamroy, both Americans.

Ford won the Oscar four times, including two consecutive in 1940 and 41. Shamroy was nominated 16 times and won the Oscar four times, including two consecutive, 1944 and 45.

Winning Quartet: Mark Rylance, Brie Larson, Leonardo DiCaprio and Alicia Vikander.

1- Triunfo dull. The award for best film for on the front page can be just the quality of research and reporting of sex abuse within the church, but the film Tom McCarthy was far from making history. In fact, almost she made history for having won only two awards (also won the original screenplay). One must go back to 1952 to find a similar case ( The World biggest show).

2- Political Correctness. The scathing and sharp driving Chris Rock -very higher than he had in 2005 was virtually monopolized by the controversy over the lack of diversity in Hollywood and the fact that there were no African-American candidates. Special segments also bet on the subject with a parodic tone. To complete a night of complaints, Vice President Joe Biden also made a plea against sexual abuse (in this case in the field of universities) before Lady Gaga sing “Til It Happens to You” while Sam Smith spoke favor of gay rights and Leonardo DiCaprio chose an ecological discourse.

3 Latin American Achievement. the Mexican Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu became the third director to win two Oscars consecutively (in 2015 he had obtained by Birdman ).

It is the seventh artist in history to achieve such a feat. Meanwhile, Chile held its first Oscar in the animated short Bear Story , while Colombia could not celebrate with The embrace of the snake , which lost to the Hungarian the son of Saul (another film about the Holocaust rewarded).

4 actorales Hallows. the award for DiCaprio was one of the most predictable and expected the night. It was the final ratification of his star status by the Academy after many frustrations. He also was a triumphant night for the young Brie Larson (26 years), distinguished by The room ; and the Swedish Alicia Vikander (27) by The Danish Girl .

5- Surprises. Mark Rylance won the award for best actor for Bridge of spies , and while his performance had been praised and rewarded, much bet that Sylvester Stallone was the winner by Creed . Few also hoped the triumph of Sam Smith with “Writing’s on the Wall”, the theme of 007 Spectre . Another unexpected result was in the area of ​​visual effects, where the modest Ex Machina beat the champion of the box office, Star Wars:. The awakening of force

6 technical Awards . Beyond the aforementioned cases, Mad Max: Fury on the road had a great night in the technical areas and stayed with six awards. He doubled his most immediate pursuer: Revenant: The reborn , although he stayed with the win in the major categories

7- absolute Losers <.. i> Mission rescue (which had seven nominations), Carol (six) and the episode 7 Star Wars (five) went empty-handed, like Brooklyn, Sicario and Steve Jobs , among others.

8- ovations. the audience at the Dolby Theatre I stood up several times. He did it when he appeared Biden, but also, for example, to greet the first Oscar for the legendary Italian composer Ennio Morricone, who at 87 won his first award for The 8 most hated , Quentin Tarantino . The Italian musician had already received an honorary Oscar in 2007.

9- Omissions. Among the most contentious aspects of the evening was the absence of a director of the French Jacques category Rivette in the in Memoriam segment, which had Dave Grohl on the musical accompaniment. Neither included in the tribute to the Polish Andrzej Zulawski, although there were other figures such as the Belgian Chantal Akerman and David Bowie, among many others who died during the past year.

10- Discourses. in a long and full of contrasts night, the comic genius Louis CK had one of the most hilarious interventions when touched introduce the category of animated short while Iñárritu bored with a pretentious down line on the meaning of art.

Controversies and betting in the waiting room

While in the United States and the world burn bets on what Sunday night 28 occur at the Oscars, organizers of the big event of the Dolby Theatre at Hollywood Boulevard synchronize their watches.

the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences Hollywood deliver tomorrow, with live transmission everyone -in Argentina it will be seen from 20.30 by the cable signal TNT- top honors with US industry awards show local and foreign film production in 2015.

There are eight productions competing for the top prize, best film, which is a clear proof that while Hollywood produces great works, for extreme nationalist is not the best, something a while ago noise in the industry .

Five of the authors of these films are foreigners, though some disguise: the Mexican Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu of “Revenant: the reborn”; two veterans, Australian George Miller, the “Mad Max: Fury on the road” and English Ridley Scott, for “Mission Rescue” and two Irish, Lenny Abrahamson, by “Room” and John Crowley, for “Brooklyn “.

The other three Americans are Adam McCay, for “The big bet,” Tom McCarthy for “In front” and archiexitoso Steven Spielberg (and winning twice, even with Honorary Oscar) for “Bridge of spies”, but are a minority among the filmmakers responsible for the main group.

it is logical that at the time of completing its first 88 years, the Oscar repeated crises and lived on other occasions but this time they sound stronger as the “too white”, which generated a controversy between those garments and indifferent torn apart.

what happened promoted changes in what you have to do with whom they vote, whether they are active or to what extent they meet minimum conditions to cover modifications that will be considered for election in less than a year, the new ternados.

in these days, first Kristen Stewart during the Sundance Film Festival and soon after Rooney Mara, both candidates for the Oscar and told Variety and Deadline, took advantage of the stir launched by African Americans to return to the issue of differences cachets between actors and actresses Hollywood is in many cases ensure a millionaire.

“with computer hacking Sony in 2014, I found out I was making less money than many lucky with penis. I did not get angry with Sony, I was angry with myself. I failed as a negotiator because I gave up. I did not want to keep fighting for $ million thanks to franchises, do not need them, “confessed the actress” Joy, the name of success, “fighting for her second Oscar after obtained by” The bright side of life “.

as for gambling, which best paid are two productions based on real events, a ‘Revenant: the reborn “which takes the story of an adventurer North Dakota in the early 19th century in search revenge and “in front”, which deals with the investigation of a special section of a Boston newspaper about cover-up of pedophile Catholic priests.

as for male performances, bets point to reward Leonardo DiCaprio, for his work on “Revenant: the reborn” with what would be his first Oscar, who many consider an act of justice after having been slighted several times, especially with “the wolf of Wall Street”

<. p> Less likely have Michael Fassbender for his impressive and pitiless work in “Steve Jobs”, Matt Damon for “Mission Rescue”, Bryan Walter White ‘Cranston for his version of “Trumbo” and Eddie Redmayne for excellent cross-dressing in “The Danish girl “.

as for the best actress award aims nominated to now unknown Brie Larson for” room “and Saoirse Ronan for” Brooklyn “; the stunning Cate Blanchett for “Carol”; Jennifer Lawrence for “Joy” and Charlotte Rampling for “45 years.”

In other areas the game becomes more difficult, even in the secondary proceedings where stands Christian Bale for “In front” but Sylvester Stallone also appears, for his role as Rocky, the opportunist “Creed: Heart of a champion.”

as for female roles, stand Rooney Mara for “Carol” and Rachel McAdams for “in front “which far exceed Alicia Viklander by” the Danish girl “Kate Winslet for” Steve Jobs “and Jennifer Jason Leigh for” the 8 most hated “.

it is curious that one of the nominated scripts is an animated as “Intense-Mind”, also a candidate in their field, where they compete the proposal adult “Anomalisa”, “Shaun the sheep”, and not seen in Argentina “Bay and the World” and “When Marnie drawing was Then. “

the expectation is also set in foreign cinema, where two excellent examples of the best international, like Colombia, with Argentina’s economic contribution appear” the embrace of the snake “Ciro Guerra that both Werner Herzog recalls the best of “Aguirre” and the Hungarian “the son of Saul,” Laszlo Nemes, which runs through the horror of the Holocaust, also compete the Turkish-French “Mustang” by Deniz Gamze Ergüyen; Jordanian “Theeb,” Naji Abu Nowar and the Danish “A War” by Tobias Lindholm

Last year Iñárritu won in the Academy Awards with “Birdman”

“Mad Max: Fury Road”. George Miller follows closely with 10 nominations, including best film. The science fiction epic Ridley Scott’s “The Martian” got seven nominations, including best film, but he did not deserve one by Scott as a director.

Eight films were nominated for best picture. The other five are: the drama of Tom McCarthy on investigative journalism “Spotlight,” the thriller Cold War Steven Spielberg’s “Bridge of Spies,” the adaptation of Adam McKay of “The Big Short” by Michael Lewis, drama a mother and son in captivity “Room” and the story of Irish immigration “Brooklyn”.

outside stood the acclaimed lesbian romance of Todd Haynes ” Carol “and the biopic about NWA” Straight Outta Compton “.

“There is a whole generation of collectors who are born with Arco, people who have come with their schools and their families to the fair and have generated a collecting major national buying or not buying the business cycle, but there are a number of informed people traveling, visiting galleries, which attends fairs and they are a very important Arco substrate “he told Efe director the fair, Carlos Urroz.

in the first edition of the Contemporary Art Fair (Arco) in which he worked, in 1995, Urroz recalled that a meal for collectors and clients of the galleries was organized “and were 25 people “against the thousand who came on the first day of 2016.

This year, to support the fair on its 35th anniversary,” companies and collections that had long without buying have become to do so. There is a collecting company that also reactivates depending on the economic availability, “he said.

Urroz insisted that one of the tasks of Arc is developing new collectors,” not only affect those who already they exist. People who do not have the habit of going into a gallery do, lose fear, initiate contacts with gallery owners. “

This requires the organization of the fair has created different programs such as First Collector, free service advice to buy art during the show directed by Elisa Hernando, as well as a program for young collectors.

About two months before the fair begins, those interested in advice raise their interests and their budget. the team working on this program studies the requests, contact the galleries and make a study delivered to each of the prospective buyers at the beginning of the show.

Elisa Hernando, director also the consulting firm Global Art, noted that the proposals made “are unique and independent” for each collector. “each person is unique, with a different profile and that requires us to prepare well the proposals,” he added.

Men and women from 30 to 70 years, are the clients of this program “that unites them that they really like contemporary art but do not know where to start.”

as for budgets, the range is very wide. “The very few were less than a thousand euros, few more around 6,000 euros, the most common is between 15,000 and 25,000 and there are also a few from 25,000 to 50,000 euros. From that figure already few who serve. to all, have the budget they have, we do alike, “he said.

the director of First Collector said that also work equally with all the galleries. “It’s a free service to both the collector and to the gallery. We work with 80% of those participating in Arco and make proposals for all of them and artists of all nationalities.”

On the occasion of anniversary of the fair, “this year, more than ever, we have worked with foreign collectors. it has been noticed much movement, people are more relaxed and more willing to invest,” said Elisa Hernando, who noted that, once finished the fair maintain contact with the people who have advised “and virtually all have purchased or have started a relationship with certain galleries”.

JJ Abrams makes it clear: “Star Wars have gay characters, superadlo” – Gizmodo in Spanish

J.J. Abrams makes it clear: & quot; Star Wars will have & # XE1, gay characters, superadlo & quot;.
image. Disney

Star Wars : the Force Awakens has gone down in history not only as one of the most successful films of all time, but his effort because the cast is as inclusive as possible. His two protagonists are, in fact, a woman and a black. Now, J.J. Abrams has announced that it will go further in future installments

http:. //es.gizmodo.com/jj-abrams-rev …

The statements come from an interview The Daily Beast . When asked specifically about the two main characters and the scene between Poe Dameron and Finn that made rivers of Internet buzz, the director expands: “When I speak of inclusiveness that represents the film is clearly not leave out gay characters. Of course “

Technically, it is not the first time that gay characters appear in the series, specifically on the novel by Paul Kemp Lords of the Sith with the character of Moff Delian Mors and on the novel by Chuck Wendie Aftermath with Sinjir Rath Velus and Esmelle Wesley. Abrams continues:

For me, the fun of Star Wars is the glorious possibilities. So it seems very short-sighted and counter-claim that can not be a homosexual character in that universe.

It is a step, perhaps, towards the goal of a day the mere fact that one of the most successful and respected franchises in film history decide to include gay characters is not news. [Via Daily Beast]

. ACTORS FORGOTTEN BY ACADEMY

GRETA GARBO
The Swedish actress never won an Oscar despite being nominated four times ( for his work and “Anna Christie,” “Romance,” “the lady of the camellias” and “Ninotchka”). In 1954, the Academy awarded him the Honorary Oscar, Greta Garbo spoke about sending their appreciation, but decided not to be present at the ceremony.

GENE KELLY
Renowned actor and dancer, was nominated for Best Actor for the film “anchors Aweigh” in 1945. Six years later he would receive the Honorary Oscar for his great contribution to the musical theater.

CARY GRANT
Renowned actor was nominated twice. First by “Lonely Heart” (1941), then by “Penny Serenade” (1944). Being one of the best actors of the time, only received an Honorary Oscar in 1970.

KIRK DOUGLAS
Celebrated actor, known for his wonderful role in “Spartacus” (1960). Douglas was nominated three times: with “The idol of clay” (1949), with “The Bad” (1952) and “Lust for Life” (1956). Like his former colleagues, veteran Kirk Douglas had to settle for an honorary Oscar in 1996.

HENRY FONDA
the actor, who was an icon of classic cinema, father of Jane Fonda also very talented, after 40 years of experience had not received any Oscar . In 1981, Henry, Jane and Katharine Hepburn starred in “On Golden Pond”, a film about the difficult relationship between a father and his daughter. Jane agreed to act as a daughter of his own father. Although this is not the best performance of this actor, the Academy, by way of apology, was awarded the Oscar for this role in March 1982. Henry Fonda did not come to receive the prize, but did Jane, who with tears eyes thanked his father for everything. Months later, in August of that same year, Henry Fonda would die at age 77. Only prize is a souvenir photo appear where Jane and Henry pretty run down, holding the Oscar.

FORGOTTEN BY DIRECTORS ACADEMY

CHARLES CHAPLIN
director, actor, screenwriter, producer and composer. One of the founders of the history of cinema and never received an Oscar in any of the main categories: Best Director, Best Actor and Best Screenplay. It is true that Chaplin has three Oscars, but the first one is an honorary Oscar he received in 1928 for having produced, written, acted and directed the film “The Circus”.

In the fifties, Chaplin was touring Europe promoting “Limelight”, where he received a telegram from the US government notifying him that he can not return home because he has been accused of communist, so I had to exile in Switzerland until his death in 1977.

in 1972 he returned to Hollywood only to receive apologies from the film world and the Academy, who decides to give his second Honorary Oscar for his career and great contribution to the cinema, one of the pioneers of cinema. When Chaplin, 83, approaches the podium to receive the gold statuette is evident emotion of the audience to stand for 12 minutes and praise among strong palms, screams and sobs, being the longest standing ovation in the history of the Oscars and one of the greatest moments. Charlot was back!

The third Oscar winning this genius was the Best Soundtrack for the film “Limelight,” which finished filming in 1952 and premiered globally least in America. This film contains a magnificent scene next to be his “rival” in comedy for many years, another great silent film comedian Buster Keaton, the first and only time acting together. “Limelight” just might be released in the US in 1972, so the prize was only in the year’s Academy Awards 1973.

In 1968, he was awarded the Irving G. Thalberg Memorial Award, the Honorary Oscar producers. His speech was, so far, the shortest in the history of the Oscars. He just went up to the state to say “thank you”, as he was cheered by the audience. Hitchcock was very upset with the Academy for not having never granted the long-awaited golden statuette and when asked what he thought about the awards, his answer was quite clear: “The Oscars Are these annual awards which nobody remembers? who won the previous year. “

Michelangelo Antonioni

the Italian filmmaker tops the list of major foreign” ignored “by the Academy. Antonioni, who reflected in his films the darkest parts of a desperate society, be an active participant in various demonstrations against the Vietnam War in the United States during the 70s, so he was arrested and marked its tab technique. When, in 1995, he returned to the country to receive the Honorary Oscar for his talented film career, he was arrested, but because of his advanced age and having medium body paralyzed by a stroke, was released at the same time.

RIDLEY SCOTT AND Stanley Kubrick

The two talented directors one of them currently in force have not been recognized by the Academy.

Ridley Scott, nominated for Best Director for “Thelma and Louise” (1991), “Gladiator” (2000) and “The fall of black hawk” (2001); and Best Picture in this edition of Osca by “The Martians” (2015), has failed to achieve to date none of the prizes in the categories mentioned. Only credited with an Oscar in his career, which was the winning “Gladiator” in 2001 for Best Picture, but in this category the prize is taken the producers of the film.

Stanley Kubrick, the master of science fiction cinema remembered for his “2001: a space odyssey”, has been nominated 12 times throughout his career, among which his following films: “Dr. Strangelove” (1964), “orange mechanics “(1971),” Born to kill “(1987).

The Oscar is still a prize for minorities – LaCapital.com.ar

The absence of black actors generated a wave of reactions, although Hollywood began to recognize his work in 1940.

This was the year the that racial controversy came squarely at the Oscars. The flame lit director Spike Lee when he wrote a long letter on his Instagram account where he complained about the lack of black nominees and gave rise past the hashtag “OscarsSoWhite” year and this year was replicated with “OscarsStillSoWhite”. “How is it possible that for the second consecutive year the 20 contenders in the best actor category are white? And let’s not even get into the other branches,” Lee asked after thanking the honorary Oscar he received last November and say that will not be present at the ceremony tonight.

His words generated adhesion and rejection, even among members of the black community linked to films which Lee is an outstanding -and self-critical representative. This was shown from 1989 when he released “Do the right thing”, followed by nothing complacent films, such as “Fever of love and madness,” “Crooklyn” and “Clockers”, which addressed discrimination among members of his community because of the greater or lesser intensity of skin color, the rejection of interracial marriages (one black with a descendant of Italians), drugs or self-marginalization.

But what the facts that support the claim are? In the history of the Oscars only 15 interpreters received the statuette. The first black actress to receive it was Hattie McDaniel in 1940 for her role in “Gone with the Wind”, created ten years after the award. Sidney Poitier received his first Oscar in 1963 for “A voice in the shadows” which was his second nomination for the award. The second, Honorífico, won in 2001.

Gossett Jr. Luois got in 1982 as best supporting actor for his work in “Challenge to fate.” Denzel Washington received the award twice: in 1989 as best actor for “Glory Days” and in 2001 for best actor in “Training Day.” That same year Halle Berry won for “Change of life”. Whoopi Goldberg received the Oscar for best supporting actress in 1990 for “Ghost” and as did, in 1996, Cuba Gooding Jr. for his role in “Jerry Maguire”.

In 2004 was the turn of Jamie Foxx twice. That year the actor was nominated as best actor for “Collateral,” which did not obtain, but received the same gala the best actor for “Ray,” a great job in this biopic about the life of Ray Charles. Taylor Hackford’s film shows how a young blind, poor and black South America, is transformed, with the guidance of an intelligent and rigorous, in one of the greatest jazz legends mother. Morgan Freeman won it in 2005 for “Million Dollar Baby”, Clint Eastwood film. And the following year, 2006, the actress and singer Jennifer Hudson won an Oscar as best supporting actress for “Dreamgirls”

Also in 2006, the character of Idi Amin approached him his Oscar for best actor Forest Whitaker for “The last king of Scotland”. In 2010 it was the turn of Mo’Nique for “Precious” and Octavia Spencer won his statuette in 2012 for “The Help.”

The Academy of Hollywood, chaired by Cheryl Boone Isaacs, a black woman, has made efforts in recent times so that there is more diversity among its mostly older members and whites. In July, the company extended invitations to black artists like David Oyelowo, Gugu Mbatha-Raw or Gary Gray, and recently announced the A2020 initiative, which aims to further diversify the Academy and encourage the industry to provide more opportunities for minorities . In addition, the 88th edition of the Oscars will be hosted by comedian Chris Rock black
