Photographer's caption reads, "Handlers are the little Hitlers of the Academy Awards red carpet. "Walk this way. Stand here for pictures. Turn this direction." As you move up the food chain, it gets worse. If you're Oscar-nominated, there's more at stake so the handlers dictate every move. "Let's move on. Stop here for an interview. Stand in front of this camera. Here's your mic. Let's go. Turn right. Face the photographers." The photographers follow an unwritten protocol: never shoot the handlers. Watch them shepherd their meek celebrities into place. Wait for them to step out of the frame. Then shoot like crazy. Stop the instant the handlers return to corral their sheep. And the woman in white? Catalina Sandino Moreno, best actress nominee for "Maria Full of Grace". She lost."
