That was actually very common in those days. Other movies that use different takes in the trailer than the film include IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFE, THE HUSTLER, & IT HAPPENED ONE NIGHT. I’m sure there’s tons more

As big as whites, and that those dreams were obtainable. So, before you judge Halle on her acceptance speech, know that before her blacks- especially women, did not expect to get many leading roles, let alone expect to be able to receive the highest honor of film recognition. It is also thanks to Halle that blacks could go out for roles that did not specifically call for a black actor. Halle is a pivotal actress, that helped changed cinematic entertainment.

Some of these …
Some of these comments really kill me. You can count on 2 hands how many black men won for best actor, and if I am not mistaken Halle stands alone as the ONLY black woman to win best actress- I am speaking about leads. Halle was overly, yes, but because she was carrying the hopes and dreams of EVERY black woman on her shoulder that night.

What happened to the Oscars? It held such dignity, poise and relevance… how did it redce to this? I hope Billy Crystal can revive this year’s award, but maybe it’ll only be realized if the nominees held such reflection.

Why Halle Berry? …
Why Halle Berry? She gave one of the most beautiful, moving, and historical Oscar speeches of all time. It certainly took the Academy long enough to award that one.

Perfect comment, …
Perfect comment, and ABSOLUTELY right on about Halle. She may have (f)lucked up on the Oscar, but she will never have what it takes to be a real actress, much less a role model of any sort, or even a human being. She will NEVER be in the same league as real actors such as Sidney Poitier, Ingrid, Bette, Liz, Vivien…or anyone with intelligence, sophistication, talent, and class.
