I’ve only recently learned that the perception in the industry was that I snubbed the Oscars—that I didn’t attend the ceremony because I was nominated for The Godfather as a supporting actor and not as a leading man. That somehow I felt slighted because I thought I deserved to be nominated in the same category as Marlon. Can you imagine that was a rumor that exploded at the time, and I only found out about it recently, all these years later?
