The legendary actor, and one of this blogger’s favorites going back to the television show The Streets Of San Francisco, and to Wall Street, Michael Douglas, will present at the 84th Academy Awards.
Michael Douglas won a “Best Actor” Oscar for his lead performance in Wall Street (1987) and a Best Picture award as a producer of One Flew over the Cuckoo’s Nest (1975). His film credits include Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps, Solitary Man, You, Me and Dupree, Traffic, Wonder Boys, Falling Down, Fatal Attraction and The China Syndrome.
