Academy Uneasy Over That 'Crazy-Ass Wrinkle' Banksy

banksy120.jpg"The fun but disquieting scenario is if that film wins and five guys in monkey masks come to the stage all saying, 'I'm Banksy!' Who the hell do we give it to? [...] That's the fun part of this job. There's always some crazy-ass wrinkle you never thought of before." And with that, Academy executive director Bruce Davis is plotting a "procedure" by which the elusive graffiti artist can claim his Oscar should Exit Through the Gift Shop win Best Documentary, which of course it should and it will. For starters: He's discouraged from attending. Ha! The guy tagged the West Bank Barrier. Who can stop him? Anyway, I'm free to collect the award that night if anyone needs me, inquire within.
