The Hollywood actor wrote, directed and starred in the cult film ‘Rocky’ before being nominated for his leading role in the 1976 classic and rocked up to the Academy Awards dressed in a white shirt and black tuxedo to present the Best Supporting Actress award to Beatrice Straight for the movie ‘Network’.

It was later revealed that the pair had come up with the plan on the spot after being asked to present the award together.
