At the 1978 Oscars, left-wing actress Vanessa Redgrave won the award for Best Supporting Actress. She had played the title role in Julia, an anti-Nazi fighter.
She gave a speech which, as recently as 2019, the The New York Times still considered rendered that night “the most political ceremony in Academy history.”
