Actor Mira Sorvino has said she is “incredibly hurt and shocked” after her father, the late actor Paul Sorvino, was omitted from the Oscars’ in memoriam segment on Sunday night.
Sorvino, an Academy Award-winning actor, shared a clip of her father’s tearful reaction to her win, for her performance in the 1995 film Mighty Aphrodite. Having shared the footage on Instagram before the Oscars ceremony began, she later edited the caption to say she had learned he had not been included in the show’s annual in memoriam section, along with “several other incredible artists”.
