    Archived from the IMDb Discussion Forums — Bill McKinney


    SunCanyonRoad — 14 years ago(March 02, 2012 11:28 AM)

    Every year at the OSCARS they have a moment to remember those that passed away in the film industry during the year. Whitney Houston was mentioned, yet Bill, who had been in dozens of films, including several with Clint Eastwood was not mentioned. I was waiting for it, and his name and picture never crossed. Anyone know why? It can't be that he wasn't "Famous" enough as theyb68 honored many behind the scenes people no one outside of Hollywood knows. REST IN PEACE Bill, I didn't forget.

        The Oscars have been notorious for "snubbing" certain actors/actresses in their tributes, particularly in recent years - Brad Renfro and Farrah Fawcett are among others who have5b4 been omitted from their tributes. The Oscars' "explanation" has consistently been that there wasn't enough screen time to include the omitted actor/actress, but I say that's a lot of BS.

          Because he was a character actor who was primarily cast in supporting roles.
