Beverly Hills, CA  - The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences
has unveiled the poster for the 84th Academy Awards®. The art features
the iconic Oscar statuette alongside memorable images from eight films
spanning eight decades: "Gone with the Wind" (1939), "Casablanca"
(1943), "Giant" (1956), "The Sound of Music" (1965), "The Godfather"
(1972), "Driving Miss Daisy" (1989), "Forrest Gump" (1994) and
"Gladiator" (2000). All the films featured on the poster won the Academy
Award® for Best Picture, except "Giant," for which George Stevens won
the Oscar for Directing.

Supported by the tagline "Celebrate the
movies in all of us," the design is meant to evoke the emotional
connections we all have with the movies...
