    Thankfully this never happened.

    Forrest Whitaker won the Golden Globe for best actor for that movie. Do you think we could petition him to wear a kilt to the Oscar ceremony? He will surely get nominated and has a good chance of winning.

    I agree wholeheartedly!!!

    and, on another hand....this is one more kilted move to help us bring the kilt to at least the status of common public acceptance, digging away at the stigma common in some parts that men just don't wear such things.

    what tartan is he wearing?


    oh, and for those who have a significant other who is opposed to the wearing of kilts, this might help a bit in changing their mind...

    The tartan (from what I can see of it ) looks like Black Watch to me.
