The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and
Sciences will be presenting a new award at tonight's ceremony.
According to Academy spokesperson Rebecca Bolenbaugh The Harvey
Weinstein Lifetime Depravement Award will be given to an “individual
who has exemplified depraved behavior throughout their career in
film.” Bolenbaugh said “From the earliest days of film making,
the motion picture industry has been a home to many profoundly
depraved people, and in far too many cases, those depravements were
never properly recognized, much less prosecuted. With the Harvey
Weinstein Lifetime Depravement Award, the Academy hopes to draw
attention to the most depraved people in our industry.” Bolenbaugh
refused to offer any insight into who would go home with the Golden
Casting Couch, saying only that the nominees were too numerous to
list. The “Weinnie” will also break new ground for Oscar in that
rather than the traditional acceptance speech, the presenter will
stuff the statuette into the winner's mouth and secure it with
gaffer's tape.
