“I forgot it was on television that night,” the “Death Becomes Her” the actress added. “Then I woke up to a phone call at like 4 in the morning. And it was a man’s voice and he said, ‘Hey, congratulations, you got it.’ ‘I got what?’ ‘You got the Academy Award for best supporting actress.’”Hawn was unable to attend the 1970 Oscars ceremony due to being in London for another film at the time.Despite the win happening over 50 years ago, Hawn didn’t watch her win until several weeks ago.
