Those clips of Roddy McDowall break my heart every time, even after nearly 20 years. I know hearing the applause isn't considered appropriate these days during the In Memoriam, but it is nice to be reminded how much he was loved in the film industry. I wish there had been mention that the Academy had named their photo archives in his honor just before he death.
Rewatching this tribute, now I truly understand why the most recent In Memoriam segments for the Oscars always have some singer performing a sad song while the crowd stays silent up until the commercial break. The audience back then kept ranking their favorite artists with higher or minor applauses, quite disrespectful I think, specially for the insiders in the industry, people behind the camera. I might not like the song tribute they do these days but it's a lot better than the applause going up and down of before. Great video by the way.
The audience still claps selectively for people. I like the orchestra music they made for these back in the day. It would be nice if they aired In Memoriam segments with prerecorded music so we don’t have to hear the selective applause from the audience.
we all had favorites. No reason they can't applaud in recognition. There's a big difference between a Cagney, Stewart or Mitchum and a Jim Varney.(no disrespect intended). They wouldn't be included if they weren't all excellent at their craft.

His performance in How Green Was My Valley is just heart-wrenching. One of the absolute best ever given by a child actor.
Indeed. He was loved for his work and himself.
@@blessOTMA and they missed the european stars: Utz Krause, Dan Massey, Tom Dugan, etc.
@@rockisheaven and they missed too, other stars included; Hurd Hatfield, etc...
Tears. Just real tears . Great artists. Warm memories. Talent unequalled.
I loved Roddy Mcdowall💜💜
Esther Rolle (1920-1998) RIP

You will always be remembered as legends.
Thank you for the list.
And we all lived happily ever after as a one big happy family as grandparents and grandson 💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘 💘.
That ending...has me in tears. Beautiful tributes
Akira Kurosawa is the man
He probably deserved a stand alone tribute.

I'm sad that I never got the chance to meet all the famous actors including Roddy McDowall and Phil Hartman and Alan Pakula.
Great artists. Warm memories. Tears. Just real tears. Talent unequalled.
How could they not put up Roddy McDowall as Cornelius. Such an iconic role of the 70’s. Sci-Fi just didn’t get proper respect in the 90’s.
I know they can't live forever but so very sad to know they are gone. Beautiful Music.
Beautiful montage with a great music!!
These are my grandmothers esther rolle and jeanette Nolan who I love very much 💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗 💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗.
We love each other no matter what 😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉.
And these are my grandfathers Phil hartman and e.g. marshall who I love with all my heart 💕❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️.
Jeanette Nolan was marvellous in The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, rip. I remember Dane Clark well, he was very good
This one and the 2000 with American Beauty soundtrack I watch over and over, I have no idea but it emotional tears me up?
I came here for Phil and Roddy.
Ugly cry time with Alan Pakula, Phil Hartman, and Robert Young. Hard to believe they've all been gone that long.
So many stars died in 1999

I do not agree... I miss the warmth of those tributes, with noisy applause, without so much languor and indifference.
The audience still claps selectively for people. I like the orchestra music they made for these back in the day. It would be nice if they aired In Memoriam segments with prerecorded music so we don’t have to hear the selective applause from the audience.
we all had favorites. No reason they can't applaud in recognition. There's a big difference between a Cagney, Stewart or Mitchum and a Jim Varney.(no disrespect intended). They wouldn't be included if they weren't all excellent at their craft.
@@vickihough6060 Jim Varney appears in the 2000 Academy Awards In Memoriam tribute, a year later.
Missing Frank sinatra
Of course, one person not mentioned that had a great impact on film was Gene Siskel. But Whoopi gave her own tribute to him in the show and the audience did applaud for it.

He got his own separate tribute.
@@gabeguarin1096 Thanks to John Travolta's intro.
Phil Hartman was so sad
I never realized Roddy McDowall was a child actor!
...........Stanley Kubrick???? Last I checked he died weeks before this ceremony! Where the fuck is Kubrick?! I'm glad Steven Spielberg had some things to say about him the following year, but come on! He should have been here in the first place!
supermariofan03 Kubrick had his own special tribute that year along with Frank Sinatra, Gene Siskel, and Roy Rogers and Gene Autry. That's why none of them are in this.
Frank Sinatra????
And about Sinatra, died in 1998?
They did a separate tribute
1:14 oh It a puppy.
What about Sinatra?
Isn't anyone else gonna mention LES MISERABLES (1998), with Liam Neeson, got snubbed by the Academy Awards....? :-O
What are you talking about? Liam Neeson has received an 1994 Academy Award nomination for Schindler's List, which was his
only recognition to date.
No Stanley Kubrick?
He hadn't died yet.
Steven Spielberg paid his tribute to Stanley.
Rodney Harvey?
Nowadays. Robert Young would have been snubbed because of television.
He appears in the 1999 Oscars memorial tribute.
Caroll Spinney touched more people's lives than any human alive at the time of his death and yet no mention because of TV.
Wow. No Kubrick.
Mishta Romaniello He had his own tribute that year.
Kubrick died in 1999 not 1998
@@joshuacox3549 He died about 2 weeks before theses oscars were produced and got his own tribute, similar to Kathrine Hepburn and Bob Hope in 2004.
no frank sinatra?
If I'm not wrong, he got a solo special tribute.
SuperRod88 well i hope so
SuperRod88 From the Academy?
