Annie Hall' wins
Oscar celebrated his 50th
birthday Monday night and
except for an incident
which made a few people
feel uncomfortable, it was
a pretty successful party.
Vanessa Redgrave, while
accepting the award for best
actress in a supporting role,
took the opportunity to
speak out on her pro-Palestinian
stand and was
greeted with a scattering of
boos from the audience.
Redgrave, who has made
a pro-Palestinian documen
tary film, was met on arrival
at the awards presentation
by Arab and Jewish demon
strators. At the podium
Redgrave denounced the
Jewish demonstrators as "a
small faction of Zionist
hoodlums."
Playwright Paddy
Cheyevsky, before present
ing a screenwriting award,
gave Redgrave a bawling
out, saying, "Miss Redgrave's
winning an academy award
is not a pivotal event in
history. A simple thank you would have been sufficient."
Jason Robards won a supporting actor award for his
role in Julia. It was Robard's second Oscar in two years.
He won last year for All the President's Men.
Star Wars, the highest grossing movie of all time, did
what Jaws did three years ago, collecting seven Oscars but
