PHOTOS OF THE DAY: CLASSIC HOLLYWOOD AND THE OSCAR

The Oscar ceremony of today is much different than the classic ceremonies of the past. Hollywood was so much different in the classic days. Movie stars were true legends, and the Oscars was THE event of the year. Here are some memories of those classic days...

INGRID BERGMAN, 1944


GARY COOPER AND BING CROSBY, 1944

AUDREY HEPBURN, 1953



GRACE KELLY AND CLARK GABLE, 1954

    I gave up on award presentations years ago. I am curious about the Oscars, but can easily check the internet the next morning for a list of the winners and the people left off the memorial.

    Loved the pictures, Lobosco. I always watch the Oscars, but without the anticipation of when I was younger. Ever since last year's debacle with dirty-minded juvenile Seth, not to mention the mess with Ann Hathaway and James (always stoned) Franco, I've given up on experiencing taste as was once a reliable part of the ceremony.
