The Academy Awards at the Pantages Theatre, Hollywood Blvd, 1951. This was the year that “An American in Paris” won Best Picture, Humphrey Bogart won for “The African Queen”, and Vivien Leigh won for “A Streetcar Named Desire.”
Here’s Bogie accepting his award while presenter – lovely and thoughtful Greer Garson – respectfully (unlike today!) remains in the background. Wondering if she’s thinking back to when she brought home her own little gold bald man?
What a night that must have been!
