Ms Fawcett appeared in 12 feature films, starring and/or co-starring in a few of these. She also worked steadily in TV series, again starring or co-starring in several.

I'm wondering why she was left out of the Memorium segment as well.

As for 10 Best Pictures, and only 5 nominations in the Best Director caregory, I am reminded of DRIVING MISS DAISY, which, at teh time, was referred to by several people as the Best Picture That Directed Itself.

I thought this year's Oscars was a pretty tawdry affair. Thoroughly undernourished. Tom Hanks desultory announcement that this year's winner was a groundbreaker was a cheap attempt to make both Lee Daniels and Katherine Bigelow just sweat a little more.

A rep for the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences that Fawcett's ommission was "not an oversight."

There was apparently some additional criticism that they also left out Bea Arthur who starred in the movie Lovers and Other Strangers but obviously best known as a TV actress.

I guess they have to draw the line somewhere but I can understand how some people would be upset at the ommissions.
