Dr. Boyce Watkins has called for a boycott of the Oscars, arguing that the Academy rewards black actors only when they portray troubled characters.

Who twice won an Oscar and refused it both times? In 1972 Marlon Brando refused the Oscars for his award-winning role in The Godfather. They weren't the first, though. In 1935 a writer named Dudley Nichols refused to accept the Oscar for his movie The Informer because the Writers Guild was on strike against the movie studios at the time.

- No doubt about it. The Academy should award the Oscar for the year despite a pity award because someone lost when they should have won. There is no way anyone can convince me Al Pacino was better in Scent of a Woman than Denzel was in Malcolm X. I am glad Denzel won, but it was not his finest performance.

Israel, Esq.” was an open-and-shut case for Denzel Washington.
