Instead, "Mad About Oscar with Katie Couric" will look back at the history of the awards shows with a look inside the vast Oscar archives for the big moments in the show's history and rarely seen behind-the-scenes footage and home movies of some of Hollywood's most iconic stars.
Several of this year's nominees like Bradley Cooper, Sally Field, Jennifer Lawrence and Denzel Washington, and stars including Billy Crystal, Marisa Tomei, Whoopi Goldberg, Cuba Gooding, Jr., as well as Dawn Hudson, Academy CEO, will participate.
"Mad About Oscar with Katie Couric," a Special Edition of "20/20," airs WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 20 (10:00-11:00 p.m. ET) on ABC.
The
special will feature the most memorable and moving Oscar acceptance
speeches of all time, the funnier monologue moments, unscripted
and surprising Oscar moments, and the red carpet fashions.
Also, with
unprecedented access to the Oscar vault at the Pickford Center in
Hollywood, the broadcast features recently unearthed early film of
Hollywood legend Lucille Ball; unique behind-the-scenes footage of
Marilyn Monroe shot during the filming of "The Misfits," "Bus Stop" and
"The Prince and the Showgirl"; and rare home film shot behind the scenes
of "Gone with the Wind".
