The Oscars will be saying farewell to a lot of cinema titans, and taking more time to do so.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Among them are Robert Duvall, Robert Redford, Diane Keaton and Rob Reiner.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Other talents who died in the last year include Brigitte Bardot, Val Kilmer, Michael Madsen, Terence Stamp, Diane Ladd, Sally Kirkland, Tom Stoppard and Malcolm-Jamal Warner.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Among the foreign talents who died were Joan Plowright, Claudia Cardinale, Dharmendra, Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa, Mohammad Bakri, B\u00e9la Tarr and Jimmy Cliff.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

It\u2019s up to the academy to decide who is included, which often leads to outcries about who gets excluded.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
