Marisa Tomei raised some eyebrows and caused a few people to spit out their popcorn when she won for Best Supporting Actress in 1992. The film My Cousin Vinny was a classic comedy, but the fact that she beat out Judy Davis, Joan Plowright, and Vanessa Redgrave that year was a little bit suspect.

In fact, there were conspiracies that the presenter was drunk and misread the winner, and it was actually Redgrave's performance in Howard's End that got the prize.
