Is it true Roy Schneider was left out of the Tribute at the Oscars?
You know, those who have passed...if so, a major fuck up...Jaws, All That Jazz...just being in one of them should have been enough.

2. He wasn't in the Oscar year, which runs to the end of January.
He'll be in the next set.

7. Actually, Health Ledger WAS in the tribute, as he died in January.
The tribute even began with text regarding the dates covered - February 07 through January 08.

9. Really...doesn't seem that long ago...

10. I would assume it's just a standard timeline they've set up that might
reflect the award cycle.

In any event, it's not malicious.

11. Well, they should have included Brad Renfro...they tend to leave out
people who should have been noted, like Peggy Lee, who was actually nominated for an Oscar and wasn't included her year.

15. I'm sure some people are left out. I don't think Scheider was is all.
