In this episode of the Compendium, we delve into the chaos of the 1989 Oscars a night of Hollywood history so bizarre it’s often called the worst Oscars in hostory. But was it really?

From Rob Lowe's infamous duet with Snow White to the awkwardly swaying stars, dancing tables, and endless backdrops culminating in a bus-sized model of Grauman's Chinese Theatre mounted on Snow White's head, Alan Carr's disastrous production has left a legacy that made the Oscars what it is today, and I'm going to tell you all about it!
