30 Oscar Winners Who Didn't Attend the Ceremony22 of 30
Alec Guinness was the favorite to win Best Actor in 1958 for The Bridge on the River Kwai but still didn't attend. He seemed a bit miffed later as he told the press the win had cost him a bottle of wine in a bet with a reporter. "I really didn't think I'd win it," he said. "I'd never have put money on myself."
