Since the Academy didn't include Robert Blake this year, I made a short video tribute to roles in the Our Gang comedies (1940s), to his role in PT109(1963) and finally his best known role as Baretta (1975-78).

Blake began acting as a child, with a lead role in the final years of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's Our Gang (Little Rascals) short film series from 1939 to 1944. He also appeared as a child actor in 22 entries of the Red Ryder film franchise. In the Red Ryder series and in many of his adult roles, the Italian-American actor was often cast as an American Indian or Latino character. After a stint in the United States Army, Blake returned to acting in both television and movie roles. Blake continued acting until 1997's Lost Highway. Owing to Blake becoming one of the first child actors to successfully transition to mature roles as an adult, author Michael Newton called his career "one of the longest in Hollywood history."-Wikipedia.

Robert Blake was AQUITTED of murdering his wife by a jury of his peers in a court of law. Thats how our judicial system is and he was found INNOCENT.
