Please members of the Academy give the guy a career Academy Award! He deserves it! He&#8217;s a National Treasure. His portrayal of Tuco in Sergio Leone&#8217;s <em>The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly<\/em> is one of the greatest in the History Of Cinema! He should have won back then. Let&#8217;s show the man how much we appreciate him while he&#8217;s still here! Who deserves it more than him? He&#8217;s never gotten one and it&#8217;s a disgrace to our film community. I&#8217;m starting the campaign now! Spread the word! Write your Congressman! Petition the Academy, Seize the Chinese Theater! Maybe the American Cinematheque can have a retrospective and generate publicity, any and all ideas welcome. Let&#8217;s honor this great artist! Clint jump on the bandwagon for your old buddy, don&#8217;t leave him hanging like at the end of<em> GBU<\/em>.<br \/>\n<a href='http:\/\/filmforno.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/12\/goodgood.jpg' title='goodgood.jpg'><img src='http:\/\/filmforno.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/12\/goodgood.jpg' alt='goodgood.jpg' \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p> Take the shot, elevate him to the firmament of Super Stars!<br \/>\n<a href='http:\/\/filmforno.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/12\/tuco_01.JPG' title='tuco_01.JPG'><img src='http:\/\/filmforno.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/12\/tuco_01.JPG' alt='tuco_01.JPG' \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>December 7th was Eli Wallach&#8217;s 92nd birthday.
