Banksy
The mysterious British graffiti artist values his anonymity. In 2011 his debut film "Exit Through the Gift Shop" was nominated for best documentary. But Bansky was told he couldn't attend the ceremony in a mask.
Academy executive Bruce Davis told Entertainment Weekly, "The fun but disquieting scenario is that if the film wins and five guys in monkey masks come to the stage all saying, 'I'm Banksy,' who the hell do we give it to?" Turns out it wouldn't have been a problem, since the film lost to "Inside Job."
