The 45th Academy Awards
The 45th Academy Awards were presented Tuesday, March 27, 1973, at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion in Los Angeles, California, honoring the best films of 1972. The ceremonies were presided over by Carol Burnett, Michael Caine, Charlton Heston, and Rock Hudson.
The ceremony was marked by Marlon Brando's boycott of the Oscars, and his sending of Sacheen Littlefeather to explain why he couldn't show up to collect his Best Actor award for The Godfather; and by Charlie Chaplin's only competitive Oscar win, for Best Original Dramatic Score for his 20-year-old film Limelight, which was eligible because it did not screen in Los Angeles until 1972.
"The Godfather" won Best Picture over "Cabaret", "Deliverance", The Emigrants", "Sounder".
Bob Fosse won Best Director for "Cabaret" over John Boorman "Deliverance", Jan Troell "The Emigrants", Francis Ford Coppola "The Godfather", Joseph L. Mankiewicz "Sleuth".
Marlon Brando won (and declined) the Best Actor Oscar for "The Godfather" over Michael Caine "Sleuth", Laurence Olivier "Sleuth", Peter O'Toole "The Ruling Class", Paul Winfield "Sounder".
Liza Minnelli won Best Actress for "Cabaret" over Diana Ross "Lady Sings the Blues", Maggie Smith "Travels with My Aunt", Cicely Tyson "Sounder", Liv Ullman "The Emigrants".
