EXCELLENT CONDITION & NO RESERVE!

The 74th Academy Awards honored the best films of 2001 and were held on March 24 2002, for the first time at the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood, California. They were hosted by Whoopi Goldberg. The ceremony was historically notable for honoring two African American actors for their Leading Roles; Denzel Washington and Halle Berry. A violent episode at the BAFTA Awards a few weeks earlier reportedly damaged Russell Crowe's chances.

The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring led the pack with 13 nominations, but won only 4 awards in technical categories. The big winner of the evening was A Beautiful Mind, which captured the prize as Best Picture & Best Director (Ron Howard).

The ceremony was significant for a number of reasons. It saw the return of the Academy Awards celebrations to Hollywood, after more than forty years away, taking place at the brand new Kodak Theatre. As a result of the new facility, the ceremony was the first to be telecast to domestic audience on ABC in High Definition due the vast capacity for HDTV equipment that the Kodak Theatre could utilize.

Furthermore the tone of this show was quieted by the recent occurrence of the attacks on September 11. Just as the 53rd Primetime Emmy Awards were postponed in 2001, many wondered if the Oscars would be postponed as well. There were 26 references to the attacks during the telecast. Woody Allen made his first ever appearance at this year's Oscar ceremony to present a tribute to films shot in New York City, in the wake of the September 11 attacks on the World Trade Center.

Randy Newman, who at the time had the distinction of most nominations without winning, would finally break his curse and win the Oscar for Best Song for Monsters Inc.'s "If I Didn't Have You". After receiving an enthusiastic standing ovation, a bemused but emotional Newman began his acceptance speech with "I don't want your pity!"
