The Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences created the Governor’s Awards to make the Oscars telecast shorter giving Hollywood it’s own sort of private night with a presentation of just the honorary awards.

The telecast to our knowledge doesn’t seem shorter, but, that aside, we’re glad that Steve Martin got to give a long, heartfelt speech without being played off for his much deserved honorary Oscar.
