The Williams Method
, the film that won Will Smith the Best Actor Oscar, was particularly abrasive.
"After years of ignoring the stories of women in Hollywood, this year we finally have a movie about the Williams sisters' amazing father," Amy Schumer said during the Oscars.
Ricky Gervais, whose jokes at the Golden Globes about artists are neither approved nor very nice, simply refuses to present the Oscars, precisely because he does not want to validate his humor to anyone.
And that might be a better solution.
