Oscars: Why Al Pacino Didn’t Read All Best Picture Nominees

Al Pacino explains why he didn’t read every Best Picture nominee before announcing ‘Oppenheimer’s win at the 96th Academy Awards, which aired Sunday on ABC. The actor tells ET in a statement, ‘I just want to be clear it was not my intention to omit them, rather a choice by the producers not to have them said again since they were highlighted individually throughout the ceremony.’
