VIDEO : Spike Lee, Gena Rowlands and Debbie Reynolds to Receive Honourary Academy Awards

Academy Award organizers said on Thursday, director Spike Lee and actress Gena Rowlands will receive honorary Oscar awards this year and film star Debbie Reynolds will be awarded a humanitarian prize. The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences emphasized the "extraordinary contribution" that the three legends have made to show business throughout their long careers. The honorees will receive the awards - which look just like the Oscars that will be given out at the Academy Awards in February at the Governors Awards in November. None of the honorees have won an Oscar, though they have all been nominated. Lee earned a best screenplay nomination for 1989's Do the Right Thing, and his 1997 4 Little Girls earned a best documentary nomination.
