Description

The Academy Awards strict code of conduct has led to bans for high-profile stars, including Will Smith for slapping Chris Rock and Richard Gere for going off-script about human rights. Serious allegations and convictions related to sexual misconduct have resulted in lifetime bans for figures like Harvey Weinstein, Bill Cosby, and Roman Polanski. The first ban was for Carmine Caridi, who was permanently banned for illegally circulating film screeners.
