Actor, whose abrupt announcement of Oppenheimer confused some in the room, says he understands that ‘to not be fully recognised is offensive and hurtful’
Al Pacino says he was following the instructions of the Oscars producers when he did not name any of the other best picture nominees while announcing Oppenheimer as the winner of the show’s biggest category.
The Oscar-winning actor was Sunday night’s final presenter and announced Oppenheimer as the best picture winner without naming the full slate of nominees, as is tradition.
