Oscar '87 Prelude: God I Hope I Get It

We're taking a look at the 60th Academy Awards for the next two weeks. Don't you think we owe it to ourselves to watch the opening number from that year?

"Ugh, please don't involve me," Michael Douglas wants to scream. Meryl looks mildly amused until she realizes she's on. Albert Brooks is actively hiding!

Tomorrow, we dig into Best Supporting Actress. Do join us...
