During the recent Oscars ceremony, legendary actor Al Pacino found himself at the center of attention after omitting the names of the best picture nominees while announcing the winner of the prestigious award. Pacino, who was the final presenter of the evening, declared 'Oppenheimer' as the best picture winner without listing the full slate of nominees.
In a statement released the following day, Pacino clarified that the decision to exclude the nominees was not his own but rather a directive from the Oscars producers. He expressed his respect for the nominees and emphasized that he deeply empathizes with filmmakers, actors, and producers who may have felt slighted by the oversight.
