About this ebook

Do you know which televised awards show gives a prize for "Favourite Smile"?

Or which Oscar host announced that he was going to raffle off a car during the ceremony?

Do you know who won the Golden Raspberry Award for Worst Actress of the 20th Century?

In Reel Winners, Richard Crouse, Reel to Real movie critic and CBC Radio's "titan of trivia," gives you the lowdown on movie awards, from eight decades of Hollywood self-congratulation to international awards to the toasts from the fringe (like The Skinnies, which celebrate actors and their skin conditions). Reel Winners is the definitive guide to the inside scoop on movie awards.
