I WAS MEANT TO POST THESE AROUND THE ACADEMY AWARDS LAST MONTH BUT THEIR TOO BEAUTIFUL NOT TO NOW; CANDID SHOTS OF GRACE KELLY'S OSCAR WIN FOR THE COUNTRY GIRL...
THE SMART MONEY THAT NIGHT HAD BEEN ON A STAR IS BORN'S JUDY GARLAND, WHO AT THE TIME WAS IN THE HOSPITAL AFTER GIVING BIRTH TO A SON TWO DAYS EARLIER; A PLAN WAS EVEN IN PLACE FOR LAUREN BACALL TO RUSH OVER TO GARLAND'S ROOM TO PRESENT HER THE AWARD, WITH AN NBC CAMERAMAN AT THE READY TO CAPTURE IT ALL. WROTE LIFE OF KELLY'S UPSET WIN: "EVEN THOSE ACADEMY MEMBERS WHO VOTED FOR GRACE KELLY FELT A LITTLE SORRY THAT THEIR BALLOTS DEPRIVED HOLLYWOOD, LAND OF DRAMA, OF A SOCKO DRAMATIC FINISH."
