The Academy Awards (1940)

The Academy Awards is Hollywood's biggest night, the annual live ceremony where the film industry hands out its Oscars amid red carpet spectacle and star-loaded musical performances. Buttoned-up as the broadcast may be, heat still slips through, and the 2 scenes collected here prove it. Doja Cat has turned heads in barely-there stage looks while Margaret Qualley brought her own sultry presence to the proceedings, both working sheer fabrics and plunging necklines to the very edge of what network television allows. Nobody bares all on this stage, but the near-misses are half the fun.
