Author "KinoGuide" on "Yandex.Zen" believes that there is no such actor in the world who would not dream of receiving an Oscar for his services in cinema.
Receiving the coveted figurine is an exciting and solemn procedure. Flashlights, a full house of movie stars, actresses in dresses from famous fashion designers, actors in elegant tuxedos. And here they call the name of the winning actor - he, with tears of joy and pride in his eyes, accepts the coveted award to the applause of his star colleagues.
After all this, how can you be negligent about such a high award? It turns out that you can, and how. Not all actors are in awe of this gilded statuette. And not everyone has it stored under glass in the most conspicuous place, warming the soul and pleasing the eye.
The famous actor Leonardo DiCaprio became an example of negligence towards the coveted “Oscar”. In 2016, he received this high award for Best Actor in Survivor. It should also be recalled that before that Leo had been nominated for an Oscar five times, but, unfortunately, other applicants received the statuette.
It would seem that after all that has been experienced, an actor should not let go of the Oscar for at least a day. But either the walk was too funny, or Leonardo was simply worried. However, he nevertheless frivolously forgot the long-awaited prize in the restaurant and almost left without it. It is good that the accompanying actor quickly corrected this fact and the Oscar went to the owner's home.
But it should be noted that at least DiCaprio forgot it on the table, and some of the awarded actors for some reason took the habit of forgetting such a prestigious film award in general in public places.
Take actor Colin Firth as an example. He apparently went into himself so much that he managed to leave his "Oscar" in the toilet after the ceremony. It's good that honest local cleaners promptly returned it to the brooding actor.

Another "bewilderment" is Meryl Streep. She also managed to forget her first "Oscar" in the ladies' room. It is said that in memory of this occasion, Meryl now keeps her awards on a special shelf in her closet. Thus, the actress has the opportunity to see her achievements almost daily.
By the way, no less star actress Kate Winslet also keeps her Oscar in the restroom of the house. She says that this way all her guests can easily see her award. I do not understand, however, what prevents them from doing this in the living room.
Recognized beauty Angelina Jolie has received this prestigious film award only once. She did not lose her and did not leave her in the restroom, she simply took her to the dearest person, her mother Marcheline Bertrand. It was to her that she dedicated her award in 2000. Unfortunately, Marchelin died seven years later from cancer. Sorting out her things, Angelina was never able to find her "Oscar", which was received for her for the best role in the film "Girl, Interrupted."
