Oscars 2016 Louis CK: Oscars Most Vigilant Do you think that Louis CK asked to present the award for best documentary short? Or do you think he was assigned? I’m willing to bet the latter, and that he wandered around for days trying to find the right ‘in’ to the category. Or maybe it came to By Duana • Feb 29, 2016 09:33 am
