Brad Renfro Cut From Oscar Montage Of Those Who Died

 
Why was late actor Brad Renfro cut from the video tribute at Sunday's Oscars?

The montage featured footage of late actors, including Heath Ledger, who passed away a week after Renfro. Renfro died of a heroin overdose in his L.A. home January 15. (link)
