| Keep waiting. And, to paraphrase a line from AUNTIE MAME (and MAME), please feel free to hold your breath while doing so :-) ................are you still waiting?........................ ............... are you still waiting?........................ Okay then. The definition for "complicit" that you yourself provided is "helping to commit a crime OR do wrong in some say." I would say that something very wrong happened at the Oscars that night, and Dunaway bore SOME responsibility for it because she didn't look at the card closely enough to see that something was not right. Apparently, even the fact that Beatty stopped reading in mid-sentence, hesitated for a LONG moment, and then looked offstage for guidance wasn't enough to clue her in that something was terribly amiss. Rather, she just went ahead and announced the name of the movie that she read on the card, even though the card was for another category. I do agree with you that, although this was a terrible mistake, it WAS a mistake rather than intentional (of course), and it wasn't primarily her fault. For those reasons, I agree that it's nowhere near as bad as the other behavioral incidents you alluded to. But the Oscars debacle was an extremely high profile example of how this person no longer has the wherewithal for public appearances, and the other inicidents indicate that neither does she have enough control to keep acting in situations where she has to work with other human beings. So I do wish people would stop hiring her to do either, thereby avoiding further extreme unpleasantness and embarrassment. |
