In 2006, the Academy commissioned Spike Lee to direct a series of short television commercials to promote the 79th Annual Academy Awards, which took place on February 25, 2007.
In August of 2006, in New York City, Lee would film 123 individuals delivering iconic lines from Academy Award-winning and nominated films. Six commercials were released and aired on ABC and its affiliates.
The Academy Film Archive holds the master elements to the commercials, including dailies and behind-the-scenes footage of the 2006 shoot.
