It was announced yesterday in The Hollywood Reporter that at the Oscars this year to celebrate the 50th anniversary of "Bonnie and Clyde", Warren Beatty and famous recluse Faye Dunaway will present an award.  I would imagine it would probably be for Best Picture.  I don't imagine her leaving the house for Best Animated Short Subject...

When did she become a recluse?  I assume it was after her tour of Master Class.  Having left at intermission after watching the first act and her notorious reputation as a diva on the tour, I can sort of understand how that experience might lead to being a shut-in.  Ugh.  At least she won't be making a real attempt at acting in what should be a relatively short appearance.

Aw, I like Faye, despite everything. I cut her some slack because she doesn't seem totally mentally sound. It'll be fun to see Bonnie & Clyde together again, and in their 70s.

I don't think Faye is a recluse, at least not anymore - she has a recurring role in amazon's upcoming "Hand Of God" season 2, and imdb lists three other supporting roles for 2017, so maybe she needs the $$$ or something.

I adore her. Warts and all. I wish that Master Class movie would leak.
