- An episode from Hollywood & the Stars, which was aired on NBC TV in the 1960's.
Covering the history of the Oscars, we hear how the awards began and see extracts from the first winner of Best Picture, "Wings" (1927/8). We also see many stars and ceremonies culminating with clips from the 1963 Best Picture, "Tom Jones".
born in 1945 I had the luxury of being brought up by my parents and their love for films from their era. I am most grateful now at 73 years to say with out hesitation that THOSE older movies are far more classier then many of the ones shown today. Thanks to my parents for setting me straight and I still enjoy the "OLD" classics often...…….(great actors back then as well)

Watch pre code movies...

Very cool . just think if we all grew up in that time... What a different world it would be?????
@@pod9538 We'd all be boomers. No progress whatsoever? I dunno, think it sounds better in theory than it actually would be
Thoroughly enjoyed watching all the greats. Above all Joseph Cotton the narrator of this film was sorely overlooked for an Oscar for his many outstanding films.
'Hold this train for me while I go pick up my Academy Award...' those were the days of the original diva Stars
Claudette didn't think she'd win because there was a sizeable movement to write in votes for Bette Davis in "Of Human Bondage" amid outrage that she wasn't one of the official nominees. Most of the predicters said Davis would win.
Today they would have their own train!
Oh my God!! I've been looking for this series forever! I remember this when I was a kid! A MILLION thanks for posting!! I had given up ever trying to find it......Finally!
It's so wonderful hearing from the actors and directors when they were still alive, recounting old Hollywood tales. The sad thing about the forward march of time is that all voices become silenced, and we lose those firsthand accounts.

Scene from "Key Largo" with Claire Trevor is superb. She captures the pathos, heartbreak and dissolution of her character perfectly. Her 1948 Best Supporting Actress Oscar was 100% justified.
I think I used to watch this series when it premiered in 1964. I was 10 years old, but I still enjoy it today. There is no substitute for REAL talent.
This series "Hollywood and the Stars" was a show that had no equal. It would still hold its own compared with television programs today. Its theme by Elmer Bernstein is epic.
Thank you for posting this fabulous series. I remember seeing it when I was younger. Odd but I still remember the theme music! This was such a real treat!
Sidney Poitier's speech had me w/tears in my eyes.
Luise Rainer, at 11:03, had the last laugh on Hollywood. She passed away in December, 2014, at the age of 104, outliving virtually all of her contemporaries. And when the Academy Awards celebrated their Family Album of living recipients in 2003, she received special mention as 'The Most Senior' living past-winner present. What a life!
I keep paying attention to see if Dame Olivia de Havilland will beat Luise’s record as the longest-lives Oscar winner. Time will tell!
@@laniejean6618 She didn't
Who was she?
@@chirelle.alanalooney8609 Dame Olivia de Havilland was a two-time Oscar winner for Best Actress (and also memorably appeared in “Gone With the Wind”).
I’ve seen both of Luise Rainer’s Oscar-winning films, starting too young to notice that she ended her Hollywood career at… age twenty-six! A baby!
This is such a TREAT! ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks, for posting all the series of Hollowood and the stars! Reminded me of the stories my late dad told me of the movies he watched in the 50s when he was in his 20s.
Thanks again.
Wow, winner's speeches where very short or none at all. I like that.
Today's acceptance speeches are a joke.
They had talent back then and nothing today is comparable!
How could this narrator savage the pronunciation of IVANHOE so egregiously, and more than once???
A favorite of mine. Powerful Marty he deserved it
The Intro.Score is just so good. It simply breaths Hollywood.
Ahhh yes, the days of class, real beauty, handsome men, & films to be proud of. ------My youth had those times, & those actors. ----Sadly, today it's nothing at all l;ike that--indeed, not even close. ----------------------------WolfSky9, 71 y/o
sure it is, they're still owned like slaves.
Love this stuff! Thx for these reels!
It certainly would be nice if in today's age we saw stars like this. Well dressed, well spoken, classy. I won't even touch on what we do not have in today's age.
true...
Chloe wilson its a lost art for sure
I'm afraid what you say is all too true. Every age has its good and bad of course but I think the U.S. is now on a downward slope and who knows where it will end.
Chloe, now really, Must you make such a curmudgeonly statement? It hardly becomes you!
hello its more fun i think meryl Streep has a laugh Ellen too brits and more interesting films get in ok maybe more violent more sequel like yes maybe less unique films get in like gwtw but this is our age ok i miss old films but new films are good too😊shape of water the help i daniel blake is the uk answer to mr smith goes to Washington ,😉
When Hollywood had class
Still do
Back when actors didn't go up on stage and slap the hosts.
---¡¡ Que maravilla, Sydney Potier wooouuu, el Primer afrodescendiente en el Cine, magnifico actor lo amooo!! Desde Treinta y Tres Uruguay
This was fascinating, but Gone With The Wind (1939) not mentioned? Don't get it. The film won 8 Oscars.
Thank you. I'm 80.
I grew up with Oscar .lol
I was not born until 1964 and didn't become aware of Rita Moreno until The Rockford Files in the mid '70s when I was about 11, but I thought she was fabulous in that series. She was so multi-talented! I have so much appreciation for her now!
Same here born 1964 too
Great video... thank you for entertaining me during the Coronavirus lockdown on May 11, 2020.
👍😷👍
I agree that the actors today do not even come close to the actors of Hollywood’s Golden Age ....so sad .....everything is copied now ....no originality ....I love the movies of yesterday .....thank you for loading this ....very interesting for me to see .....Gone with the Wind I agree should have been mentioned though .....thank you again..
I agree with you. I watch the TCM movies .
Did the actors of the golden age leave their sentence hanging too?
Mention "Gone with the Wind" and the BLMers would riot and burn down the studio!
Sidney Poitier is soooooooo Classy.
It makes perfect sense that Jedediah would narrate this
Rita is alive and gorgeous (2021!)
This is still in 2020 one of my very favorite shows I watch all the time
Originally telecast in two parts, on March 30 and April 6, 1964.
Can anyone believe that Robert Mitchum never won an Oscar?. Incredible!
@alvaropelayo8084: Well evidently lots of people believe it because his peers never nominated him for role and the Academy never thought his performances were that good. Grow up and move on as there are lots of very good performances that will never be nominated or wing.
Amazing footage
Many many thanks
💕these were stars💕
Fiquei 53 anos sem assistir está série eu tinha 12 hoje estou com 69 anos ..passou rápido !
The Academy went light on Mr Smith and his actions.... They should take the statue back for same amount of time too
Anne Bancroft ALWAYS seems like nice cool lady
Mrs. Mel Brooks
Those were true Stars, but you missed one of the greatest....Lillian Gish.
I thought you knew, years later Lilian Gish got a special Oscar, but Edward G. Robinson, when he got a special Oscar his widow had to get it for him, I wish he got it when he was still on this plane.
You watch these actors and realize just how much Brando changed acting
Just as Bette Davis did in the thirties
FABULOUS ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Grace Kelly was so pretty.
Most beautiful woman ever born
Is that why she won an Oscar she didn't DESERVE?
At 27:00, Frankie has said Borgnine helped him win the Oscar!
The film “ Gone of the Wind” is not here. Why?
You'll Never Ever See Anything Like this or a world like this anymore Ever! Up till 1989 America was in a very good place, but since then it has declined to where we are now! At the Academy Awards Ceremony years ago people were dressed accordingly and Respect and Decency were the importance of the evening, Motion Pictures and Actors and Actresses were Superb and Talented more than most anyone in the last 30 years, it's a proven fact and what's worse is the young people of today 35 and under, can't comprehend this admit this or care about it either, it's not only horrible but unforgivable as well PERIOD!!!!!
Narrated by Joseph Cotton, star of Lady Frankenstein (1971) and Baron Blood (1972)
And Citizen Kane, and The Third Man
And Soylent Greene
I like how they skip right past Hattie McDaniel's winning the Oscar. When America was South Africa. Those were the days.
NO, Grace Kelly, that's Judy Garlands Oscar!
The scene in Tom Jones where the terrified baby deer ( Yes Baby, it still had spots on it ) was run down by dogs, which were then whipped, then held up with it's tongue hanging out of it's mouth was considered a comedy in the so called golden era of Hollywood was nothing short of sickening. They're all dead now. if there is any justice they are being chased by the hounds of Hell
Thom Vogan Hi🙂 👍👍👍👍👿💥💨👻💨💢👹👿👺👿.......... (§) ......True ....Sickening and Vile ......I will never watch it or purchase films involving animal cruelty ever .. I only watched 'Tom Jones ' until the opening of the fox hunt scene - not even 10 minutes I think - then I turned my channel to something else - will never watch it again👎👎👎👎😝👆 - the rest of my life .......or support anyone in the film😝👎👆/music👆😝👎/any entertainment industries👆👎😝 that support /committing evil such as this ..What One Sows , One WILL Reap ....Eventually🤔..... (§)karma finds everyone....
Thom Vogan oiplmblack
If you eat animal products, you're not better. (I don't.)
@@jmason3904 What kind of movie was that -to win best picture??? For 1963, let any movie, ANYTHING win Best Picture - Mad,Mad, World or Cleopatra, tom jones should be banned from Hollywood - forever.
Those were the time when men were real hunters
Queridos de.la Academia: ¿¿ podían haberlo colocado el traductor??; se olvidaron de los Sud- Americanos, quiero ver a Mario Moreno ( Cantinflas, por favor y a Burt Lancaster, en ""Circo"""; al actor que dijo que "" -- No sabia que tenía que taparse un ojo, para ganar un Oscar( no recuerdo su nombre, ""lo tengo en la pinta aaahh Jhon Wuey.....y tantos otros, que con tantas cosas, mi archivero se atasco, jajajaaaa .....!! Desde Treinta y Tres Uruguay
Strange "Gone with the Wind" and "All About Eve" weren't mentioned.
Jack Haley couldn't get the rights from MGM and Fox to show clips from it.
How about Withering Heights
All these amazing actors lived in a time when actors had to act. Now movies are all cgi with minimal acting and fat paychecks. Talent in Hollywood is dead.
Booohoooo. No one has acted since 1932. Meryl Streep does not exist. Let's all play our tiny violins.
KarBen! You got that right! A very few good Actors. The Movies, not so much.
I think you only watch American films. There's plenty of talent and great acting outside Hollywood
Some1 explain why many years ago the Actors ran down the aisle from God knows where. Check out Sinatra and Donna Reed.
Sinatra was probably running thinking let me get down here quick before they realize their mistake and change their minds, other actors had to work hard and petition for the roles he used his muscle connections to get that part he really didn't deserve it
When Hollywood was pro American. A golden age.
robg71 back when people like you blacklisted actors and directors who cared about democracy and people
Only the Commie ones :)

The only other time was with Barbra Streisand for FUNNY GIRL and Katherine Hepburn for A LION IN WINTER.

Hi Rod, I cant find THE ANGRY SCREEN. could you upload it again please? Thanks so much. Kevin
Hi Kevin, I don't have this any more, but you can watch, or download, from the Internet Archive at archive.org/details/gov.archives.arc.651276
Thanks. I did finally find it. it was with the grouping of shows. it used to be on its own. Anyways thank you are awesome., I love these show.,
Bugs Bunny won a Oscar. I’ll bet it is not talked about here.
Im rich, Im beautiful, Im famous, I deserve an award!
TROUBLE IS YOU CAN'T ACT!
Iam sexy,I'm bad,I'm dirty,than I deserve an award for the best prostitute and bitch of the best pornographic movie in the Hollywood
"In 1962, Hollywood produced....." then goes on to name Laurence of Arabia as if it were produced by Hollywood. Surely it was a UK produced film which happened to win an Oscar. Not the same thing.
what year was this made,color please year please more info please
This is from back when the awards actually meant something and not a show for narcissists or half-assed anarchists to bore the audiences with their tripe.
I totally agree 100% with you.
Obviously, this was made before Meryl / De Niro / Pacino / Nicholson & D.D. Lewis . -----------Still, I agree, the actors were better then------------film today is largely deeply disappointing. -------------------------WolfSky9, 73 y/o
Yes very good
'Best Years'...
Best Picture of ALL times!!🤩
Rita Moreno is still great to me !!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I think Millions of dollars would say it better that you were the best then a Oscar! Just ask the Oscar and your find it won’t say a damn word ! What would you rather have ether or other. You are certainly right Mr. Sidney Poitier It certainly was a long journey to that kind of money! Just make sure it don’t grow wings and fly away like it did so many others!💸
Oscars 2020 #CantWait
Would u upload subtitle of this video?i really want to know it!Very appreciate!
Have turned on automatic captions for this movie. Hope this helps.
There isn't automatic captions for this video。。。。。anyway,thank you!
Where is my Oscar for playing the role in the Jayne Mansfield movie . I was Jaynes loni Anderson child Micky Jr .
guess they didn't deem you worthy. duh.
Probably Cow !!!
I THINK YOU DID A GREAT JOB GOOD FORM!
Thought Ava got Frank the part, as he was not the box office he used to be....
Sadie Hill There’s always been a lot of speculation about how Sinatra landed the role. Some say it was Ava’s influence, others that it was due to his alleged friends in the ‘Mob’ making threats to the studio... Whatever the truth, there’s no doubt that Franks performance in the film certainly revived his career, which at that point was in the doldrums.
It is all about the politics now. As Kate Winslet's actress character said in an episode of 'Extras': "It is all about the subject matter now; make a film about the Holocaust - guaranteed Oscar".
Or about the Titanic ?
@@ilzamaria6424 No, not the Titanic, as it features the wrong sort of tragedy. I know it won a lot of Oscars but none for the actors, which is what the guarantee bit really refers to. Personally, I thought the film was pants, despite the special effects, with poor acting and a terrible script; however, with the correct type of tragedy it could still have won Oscars for acting or the script.
grace kelly. a princess. but not any great shakes as an actress. garland ought to have won.
I stopped watching the Oscars in early 2000 no longer entertaining pure trash
That's what my mother said.
I stopped this year and the Globes too. Tired of politics and gay speeches. Boring. It's not the time or the place for issues and sexual orientation. Just my view.
Agree
I stopped watching them when Bob Hope retired as the emcee. Today movies are junk.
Agree me either
That was one dirty joke by Will.
When you compare the different entries in each category and the resulting winner, you can smell the stank!
Rita Moreno still looks amazing age has been kind to her 😊
The Oscar was only worth $ 250.00 😳 i thought it was made of pure gold, oh well learn something new everyday.
If it was $250. back then, its a lot more now. Inflation.... At least $1500.
100th (thumbs up). Dec. 2, 2017 👍
der erste oscar für einen deutschen. Emil Jannings.
warum hört man das von einem ausländer?
Sprechen zie english💪🏽
20:49
Bugs Bunny won an Oscar. Do they cover that?
1960's lol when?
Kool
Moments of greatness? Greatness for me is the discovery of DNA or sacrificing yourself for a fallen comrade in a war. Greatness does not mean being paid a small fortune to put on makeup and play for a living. As for men and women of class style in the golden age, all you have to do is read to find out what really went on and how incredibly immoral the industry was to understand how naive that statement is. Golden age through rose tinted glasses.
I understand your feelings but why are you here? I myself can't imagine life without having the movies. I could care less about who wins an oscar. I prefer the classics over much of what's out there today, talk about immoral.

There's greatness in scientific achievement. There's greatness in acting. Hell, there can be greatness in farting and fucking.
It was the Golden Age of (Hollywood) cinema and the studio system in terms of box office sales and cultural impact of films before the advent of television started to make inroads in to the silver screen revenue.

Crawford as Donald Trump. LOL.
The Great Mexican Actor,Director,Producer Emilio "El Indio" Fernandez was also the model for the statue renowned "OSCAR" WOW 🤯💯
Oh yeah, let's form a private club with only 6,000 members and then give ourselves cheap prizes every year. The Oscar is just gold plated and worth only about $150. The Academy was originally formed by Louis B. Mayer as a union busting device.
Mutual admiration society. Major pandering!
gallantrycross x No. Thanks
gave up on them when Crash beat Brokeback and Timothee Chalamet lost.
Rita MorEEno? Lol
Those were the days and those were the movies. Not today! Both the movies and the "stars" are all crap! Nobody watches the Oscars anymore!
1963 best picture lol hardly no way...try maybe worst picture lol
funny
Richard Cockerill Happens. Goodness. Bye. Happens
M
Rita Marino is Porto Rican. And she won an Oscar in 1961!!!!! How about that lefty complainers?
why is this in B&W ? WELL? WHY? color please
It was recorded 1963 long time before color tv was a thing.
Because it was a TV special in the early sixties before the advent of color tv.
Can I be , the only person that hated westside story ???
no, we are legion ...
