Re: Daily Fun Fact
Since the Academy Awards began in 1929, only three have been refused.
1935 - writer Dudley Nichols refused to accept an Oscar for 'The informer' because the writers guild was on strike against the movie studios at the time.
1970 - George C Scott refused the Best Actor Oscar for 'Patton' as he had always believed the ceremony belittled actors and made the whole occupation little more than a 'meat market'. He had previously refused a nomination for his role in 'The Hustler'.
1972 - Marlon Brando refused the Best Actor Oscar for 'The Godfather'. Brando sent a young woman in Indian costume to refuse the award, based on the actor's outrage over the plight of Native Americans.
