75th Academy Awards

The 75th Academy Awards was held at 5:30 PM PST on March 23, 2003. Due to the start of the war with Iraq four days earlier, the ceremony lacked a red carpet this year and was scaled back. The event was hosted by Steve Martin and performers included U2 and Catherine Zeta-Jones and Queen Latifah.
