'I think the problem with the no host thing, perhaps, is that there's not somebody out there to capitalize on that moment.' Billy Crystal opens up about the decision for the Oscars to go without an emcee for the second year in a row
During an Oscars ceremony, Crystal was supposed to introduce Roach on his 100th birthday. "He was sitting right in the second row and he was just supposed to wave on the occasion of his 100th birthday. Just stand up if he could, which he did, and just wave," he recalled. "So I said a proper introduction. 'Ladies and gentleman, 100-year-old, giant in the movie industry. We all owe him a debt of thanks. The one and only Mr. Hal Roach.
In an attempt to control the situation, Crystal said "lines were flying through my head." He continued, "One hit like a slot machine in Vegas and I just looked at the audience and said, 'It's very fitting because he got his start in silent films.'" "When I first turned on the movie, I was like, 'I didn't come for this,' but to me it was quite exhilarating," he said.
