Fey and Poehlerwho co-hosted together for the second time in a three-year slatecontinued their comic zing. Fey described Gravity as a movie about how "George Clooney would rather float into space and die than spend another minute with a woman close to his own age."
Diane Keaton accepted the DeMille award on behalf of Allen, who is known for avoiding awards shows. ( Her speech included singing a Girl Scouts song. ) However, The New York Daily News reported that Ronan Farrow, Allen's 26-year-old son with Mia Farrow, generated controversy by tweeting, "Missed the Woody Allen tributedid they put the part where a woman publicly confirmed he molested her at age 7 before or after Annie Hall?"
