On Saturday, she received a letter addressed to her from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences - later revealed to have actually been sent by her 11-year-old daughter, Eve
last month. But according to the letter, the Oscar should have gone to the “rightful” best adapted screenplay:“In hindsight, we should have told you when we realized it, on the night on which the Oscar was given, but you must understand that we did not want another ‘Year of the Moonlight’,” the letter read. “We also did not want it to get all over your local news.”
Ms. Polley’s daughter also repeatedly insisted the letter was “not a joke,” despite it being received on April 1, stating that “another letter will be sent, probably in this week or the next, assuring you that this is not a joke.” Ms. Polley took to Twitter to announce the news, saying that her 11-year-old “swung low” for April Fool’s day this year., was quick to get in on the joke, offering to send over his address to help Ms. Polley save some bucks on shipping. “Dear Sarah, to save on mailing costs as I live overseas the Academy has asked me to provide you with my address so you can ship the Oscar directly. I will follow up shortly. Ok with you? All best, Edward,” he tweeted.
