Why Anthony Hopkins didn’t show up to accept his Best Actor Oscar
In a repeat of his Baftas disappearing act, the 83-year-old failed to show up to collect his award, But where was he?
“The Academy congratulates Anthony Hopkins and accepts the Oscar on his behalf, thank you.”
Somehow, the most surprising moment of the 2021 Oscars ceremony also managed to be its most perfunctory: Anthony Hopkins s portrayal of an elderly dementia sufferer in The Father edged out the late Chadwick Boseman to take home the Best Actor gong. Except, of course, he didn’t take it home – for Anthony Hopkins was nowhere to be seen. Instead, the reliably grumpy Joaquin Phoenix announced the win, mumbled something incoherent, and was off-stage almost before anyone had realised what had happened.
