The thirties and forties were a period when there so many great actors. Tracy, Cooper, Stewart, Gable, Fonda, Grant, Tyrone Power, Ronald Colman, etc and etc. It's a shame that only one can win in each year. Look how long it took for Henry Fonda to be recognized by the Academy.
Lauren Bacall said in an interview about this night, that it was so amazing and "intimate" because it wasn't televised. She said the audience roared and cheered when he won as they all really liked each other. It's a great interview.

Because these days theyre not actors, and Oscars are not Oscars...all a scam...no art. Movies are made in Hollywood to sell in Asia where population is 4 BILLION, and thanks to 1% greedy manufacturers, those have the cash to buy tickets and ways to watch movies, no longer fit to be called ART OF THE CINEMA.
@Tropic Lightning Someone send this video to Joaquin Phoenix, and show him how a real man accepts an award. With humilty and dignity. And keeping things fuckn relevant!!!
@Tropic Lightning what's wrong with people pointing out causes they support? Winning an oscar is one of the greatest thing a film artists can win, it's one in a million chance in an already one in a million career field.
Damn Brando's performance in Streetcar and Clift's in A Place in the Sun are legendary. Crazy how loaded these categories were in the Golden Age of film
Alex Smuckler based on what I’ve seen I’d say Clancy Brown is a better actor than Humphrey Bogart, mainly because I’ve seen he can be more engaging in more roles
What a beautiful gown Ms. Garson wore: the epitome of taste and class. She was always a favorite actress of mine. And Bogart, how much more humble could he be?
Ms. Garson has a sense of humour just as exquisite as her sense of style. I cannot help but crack everytime I hear her go "Its hardly the time to be wordy..."
What a beautiful man! Look in those days, he gracefully and wholeheartedly thanks Hepburn & Houston without a shred of air around of him (with him being such a huge star back then). Bogie, you would be remembered as a wonderful human being way more than as an actor (and that's after calling him one of the finest in the business, mind you)
Humphrey Bogart was the greatest actor of the 20th Century. My favourite movie of his is The Big Sleep. His role as Rick in Casablanca is what he is best known for. It was a bit late for him to finally get an oscar. He was 1 of a kind. All the best Bogey you'll always have a place in our memories.
I liked The Treasure Serra Madra , The Caine Mutiny and African Queen But my favorite actor is Gary Cooper Second is Kurt Russell But I like just about everyone back then in the past William Holden Gregory Peck John Wayne Just to mention a few I should probably make a list of who I didn't like , it would be much shorter
Have you noticed how the actors from the earlier years all had a certain something or distinctive feature that sets them apart from everybody else. Like Humphrey Bogart, Bette Davis, James Cagney, John Wayne or Cary Grant and there are others as well. Most of today actors don't stand out from other actors as they don't have a certain thing that makes you remember them or the movies they were in.
I can't think of anyone...anyone who was cooler than Bogart. For some reason, watching this old film footage makes me very nostalgic for a better time. It all looks so glamorous.
Yeah the "glamorous" 1950s with its rampant sexual assault behind closed doors and not to mention the extreme racial inequality in the country. So glamorous. Hollywood was just as sleazy then as it is today.
@@iangoodman2228 One can miss the good things without also wanting the bad. And there were many, many good things we have lost from that era which it is certainly appropriate to wish we had back today. Despite what you say, there absolutely was a level of class and sophistication that no longer exists in an era when one doesn't have to do anything to be famous except make a sex tape. Noticing what we have lost from those times and wishing we had it back does not at all imply we must yearn for the package in its entirety, as any rational person understands.
What an astonishing line up of actors as nominees - Streetcar Named Desire and Death of a Salesman remaining two of the greatest plays in the English language. A Place in the Sun still holds such prestige. That is an incredible group of performers - Arthur Kennedy not being as famous as the others but being such a respected stage actor and the original Biff Lohman in Death of a Salesman on stage and the very first John Proctor in The Crucible. Bogart, Marsh, Brando, Kennedy and Clift. Extraordinary.
+Michael Conrad I know, right? Clift probably would have gotten my vote for A Place in the Sun, but you can't really object to Bogart or to Brando either if it had gone that way. I wish to hell somebody would dig up Fredric March's version of Willie Loman. It's never shown anywhere. I'd really like to see it before I die but it seems to have disappeared from the face of the earth.
You are too kind. I'll never forget watching The African Queen for the first time as a kid with my parents and my dad explaining that life lesson to me as we watched that scene in particular. Brando could scream, "Hey, Stella!" all he wanted. It just isn't remotely as profound or endearing as Bogie's subtle expression.
Wow. Wonderful to hear Bogie speak as "himself". And what a roster of nominees - old Hollywood versus new - Brando and Clift both on the list. What a year that was for great work. If they had only known how Brando and Clift's 'method' approach would sweep everything else away in the coming years. A fascinating piece of archive.
I was always so enamored of Clark Gable, that I didn't pay much attention to Bogey. Lately however, I've been watching some of Bogeys old films. I'm amazed at what a fine actor he really was. It's never too late to express appreciation. That Oscar was well deserved.
Now that many Oscar winners' remarks have been posted here on UA-cam, I'm amazed at how brief most were for decades. It's only in our self-indulgent times that winners have brought out laundry lists of people to thank.
I like how he just lets his arm drop with no appreciation nor regard for the statue. It was obvious that he didn't care for receiving it nor giving an acceptance speech. I read that he didn't care much for all the hoopla and awards. I also read that he used the statue for a door stop. He truly was an awesome actor and human being. R.I.P. Humphrey, we miss you.

I fell in love with his work while in college. I took a class in "Topics in Film" study and my professor played a lot of Humphrey Bogart movies. After the semester ended, I happily ordered most of his movies via Amazon.com. He is missed by many. 💞
while he wasnt a big fan of going out ..cause he spent every minute he could on his boat...bogart CERTAINLY DID want to win that award and cared very much
James Cagney had a similar situation where his only Oscar win was for the musical Yankee Doodle Dandy. Yet it was cool to see them both win for roles that would show they were capable of playing a different kind of character. For Bogart he became a Cockney cargo boat captain in WWI who at turns was drunk, cowardly, brave, resourceful, tender, and funny. Cagney would play real life entertainer and composer George M. Cohan and actually sang and danced, skills that were probably a surprise to moviegoers at the time. A favorite clip for many today is seeing Cagney tap dance his way down a large flight of stairs as an older Cohan.
LWN, get ahold of yourself-this is BOGART we're talking about. Icon of icons. His name STILL hits the top 10 in Most Popular Actor polls. He's irreplaceable, indelible and impossible to duplicate. He's also timeless. You cannot compare High Sierra to Sabrina or Key Largo to Capt Quigg of Caine Mutiny. Totally different dynamics of character. He was brilliant.
Can you imagine Bogart winning the Oscar over Marlon Brando in a landmark performance as Stanley in A Streetcar Named Desire and over Montgomery Clift in A Place In The Sun? I aalso believe that Bogie's work in Casablanca and Treasure Of The Sierra Madre was superior to his performance as Charlie Allnut in African Queen, but this award was an acknowledgement of his entire career.
What a line up of significant actors for the Oscar. Brando, Clift, Bogart, March and Kennedy. And the movies they were in? Some of the greatest of all time.
They don't make them like this anymore... this was the time when people had class and you actually saw these movies..today's Oscar's who borthers to see the movie?
2019 was amazing year for movies. Once upon a time in hollywood, 1917, parasite, marriage story, joker, the irishman. Older movies are equally as good as the newer ones
Some think this was a "make-up Oscar" for Bogey and that he was better in other roles. Maybe true...but the more you watch African Queen the more you appreciate this unconventional "love story" of two people revealing their power, pride, flaws, and failings and their ultimate covenant to each other. Bogey is just brilliant in holding it on course, keeping it true, and not sliding into sentimentality. Such a well deserved award.
"Not an easy day to forget. I remember every detail. The Germans wore gray, you wore blue." I definitely would've worn blue to that Academy Awards ceremony.
I am a non native speaker, and it is way easier to me to understand those mid century speeches than current ones. I can watch a classic movie without captions easily, but modern movies, without the aid of captions I'd miss 2/3 of what they say.
Bogart gave many memorable performances but playing Charlie Allnut in African Queen was one of his best. I love that movie. This Best Actor Oscar was so well deserved by this screen icon.
It was never too late for any Hollywood actor.Ronald Colman got his Oscar for "A Double Life" in 1948 and John Wayne for "True Grit" in 1970.Colman was 57 when he received the Oscar and Wayne was 65. Humprey Bogart(1899-1957)first gained fame in a gangster role in the "Petrified Forest" just because of his good friend the English actor Leslie Howard(1893-1943).So much that he named one of her twin daughters Leslie.
Absolutely agree. Bogey's performance in Treasure of the Sierra Madre give was so outstanding and brilliant that it gives me goosebumps every time I think about it. So was The Big Sleep, Maltese Falcon and Casablanca.
Interesting that the '52 Oscar show was filmed in color, for it seems like yesterday instead of many years in the past. I believe the first Oscar show to be televised was in 1953 or '54, if I'm not mistaken, probably hosted by the best MC of the Academy Awards...Bob Hope.
The entire 1952 Oscar ceremony was not filmed in color, or for that matter, neither in its entirety in b&w. Just particular segments featuring the major awards, such as Bogart's in this color clip, which is an example of that era's color or black & white newsreels summarizing world events, with an off camera narrator describing the particular occasion, and which were shown nationwide on a weekly or semi-weekly basis in movie theatres before the " main feature ". Up until 1953, the Oscar ceremony was broadcast on coast to coast radio. " The 25th Academy Awards ceremony was held on March 19, 1953. It took place at the RKO Pantages Theatre in Hollywood, and the NBC International Theatre in New York City. It was the first Academy Awards ceremony to be televised, and the first ceremony to be held in Hollywood and New York City simultaneously. "
Bogart will always be my favorite. I wish I had lived in that era. To see Casablanca in a movie theatre ... I can't take my eyes off him. He left us at age 57, in 1957. We wanted more. We still do. Bogart Estate on Twitter is run by his son Stephen. He seems very classy also. I think this award was for his body of work. All these years later, we still love you. Rest in peace, Bogie.
As an Egyptian, I recently watched Mr. Bogart in Sabrina, and on my way to watch Casablanca, and believe me, he gave me a very amazing impression with his unique voice, his looks, and his way of walking, and when he has a scene with the heroine, he can make you pay attention to what is happening in terms of events. He is really creative.
Bogie thought Brando was talented but also thought he spoke as if he had a potato in his mouth. Brando scolded him and said that Bogie always played himself.
Dear Lord, please give us back actors such as John Wayne, Charlton Heston, James Cagney, Humphrey Bogart, Gloria Swanson, Katherine Hepburn, Maureen O'Hara and Directors like John Ford.
John wayne: a racist. Charlton Heston: a bad actor and a gun-totin' republican. Humphrey Bogart: a chain smoking adulterer. Katherine Hepburn: a closet lesbian.
@@ricardocantoral7672 nothing wrong with a lesbian but nothing worse than a gun totin' Republican. The point is that the OP longs for stars from the past as if they were someone more classy but we all know they had their share of problems
I agree again. There was nobody cooler than Bogart in MALTESE FALCON (except for maybe Bogie in CASABLANCA). And as you pointed out, we can thank John Huston for giving him that role.
Love this! Just wish he had won again for "Caine Mutiny." If you've ever seen it, you'll know why I've never looked at strawberries in the same way again since I finally saw it last summer.
What a list of great movies and nominees...Brando was great as we all know but Clift was so underrated...he played complex characters with such nuance and style. What can one say about Bogey other than his best role was his last i believe...The Harder They Fall.
Bogart and Hepburn made one of the most endearing and believable couples ever depicted on screen. Charlie Allnutt was indeed one of his best roles. But he was, to say the least, an unlikely Brit. Still an irresistible performance.
“Nature, Mr. Allnutt, is what we are put on this earth to rise above.” Brilliant script, brilliant John Huston, brilliant Bogart and brilliant Hepburn. Blue Nile diamonds all.
Those were golden times in Hollywood. Such great talent and great people with class, manners, wit and charm, not to mention great beauty. Oh for those good old days.

Happy Birthday to the one and only Humphrey Bogart today! He had a very unique way to turn around. Bogie, a Hollywood legend, is still very much alive in our heart. He did that move in most of his movies, a special trademark. RIP. Thank you for your outstanding performances during that Golden Age of Hollywood.
Oh yes! Greer Garson is the cuttest! What a pleasant personality! She had some spark of light that radiated her entire face. She had a very particular beauty called grace! What a woman!! I love her sincerity, sense of humor, charm, and lovely nature!
Short and sweet. My favourite movie of his - The treasure of the sierra madre. Great actor, real Hollywood star. Classy production this oscars, not like a Bland or Gervais shambles.
If they had a lifetime award Bogart would had won that too . It was a tough pick between Brando and Bogart's perfomances , on that Oscar night . Thanks for posting , its nice to see the "real stars " of Hollywood again .
Bogie often had great roles in great ensemble films. I think that this was, by far, his best one-on-one performance. He was terrific opposite Katharine Hepburn. They brought out the best in one another here. A very well earned Oscar!
So different than today's Oscar winners, who spend minutes thanking this person, that person, every other person, don't forget their husbands and wives ... Humphrey Bogart had a mesmerizing way on screen, truly one of the greats of acting and performing.
Humphrey Bogart died five years later in 1957, and this was his only Oscar. He should have won more. Bogart is one of the all-time greats.
Like 3 at least 😡
In many polls of greatest movie stars it's usually Bogie or Gable at
# 1
He probably new his diagnosis and was fabulous, short, humble and full of character so interesting.

while he wasnt a big fan of going out ..cause he spent every minute he could on his boat...bogart CERTAINLY DID want to win that award and cared very much
Greer Garson was so elegant and beautiful.
Old school class and humble. Bless
Cagney and Bogart - two very different people with different styles, but arguably the two best American screen actors ever.
James Cagney had a similar situation where his only Oscar win was for the musical Yankee Doodle Dandy. Yet it was cool to see them both win for roles that would show they were capable of playing a different kind of character. For Bogart he became a Cockney cargo boat captain in WWI who at turns was drunk, cowardly, brave, resourceful, tender, and funny. Cagney would play real life entertainer and composer George M. Cohan and actually sang and danced, skills that were probably a surprise to moviegoers at the time. A favorite clip for many today is seeing Cagney tap dance his way down a large flight of stairs as an older Cohan.
Oh Yes! TRUTH INDEED AMEN 🙏 SIP to both Amaaz8ng,Great Actors
We missed you Bogie............wish you were with us today
Ardeshir Aria a
He'd be almost 120
Yes, but the Academy had to make amends for the mistake they had made when they didn't give Bogie the award for Casablanca in 1943.
The 5 actors deserved the Oscar for their best performance. Nowadays one or two deserve it.
LWN, get ahold of yourself-this is BOGART we're talking about. Icon of icons. His name STILL hits the top 10 in Most Popular Actor polls. He's irreplaceable, indelible and impossible to duplicate. He's also timeless. You cannot compare High Sierra to Sabrina or Key Largo to Capt Quigg of Caine Mutiny. Totally different dynamics of character. He was brilliant.
A long past due award to one of Hollywood's iconic performers.
Can you imagine Bogart winning the Oscar over Marlon Brando in a landmark performance as Stanley in A Streetcar Named Desire and over Montgomery Clift in A Place In The Sun? I aalso believe that Bogie's work in Casablanca and Treasure Of The Sierra Madre was superior to his performance as Charlie Allnut in African Queen, but this award was an acknowledgement of his entire career.
The Caine Mutiny too was great. Awesome actor.
@@donaldsheeley2999 PlPl
@@donaldsheeley2999 Should have won it for CM.
The wonderful Greer Garson, with her easy charm, radiant smile and impeccable speaking voice does a wonderful job in presenting the Oscar to Bogart.
What a line up of significant actors for the Oscar. Brando, Clift, Bogart, March and Kennedy. And the movies they were in? Some of the greatest of all time.
Bogart should have got awarded with more Oscars than only this one. He was a master of acting. There will never be any like him anymore.
Truth Indeed
Such a gifted actor - we need more like that......
They don't make them like this anymore... this was the time when people had class and you actually saw these movies..today's Oscar's who borthers to see the movie?
The mindless and the dumb.
@AGZ all but one film made $100,000,000 this year (2020) that were nominated for Best Picture so math disproves the original poster's comment
2019 was amazing year for movies. Once upon a time in hollywood, 1917, parasite, marriage story, joker, the irishman. Older movies are equally as good as the newer ones
My God ! That is an incredible list of brilliant performers....any one would have been worthy of the Oscar.
All of those actors deserved the oscar.
Bogart was class! How i wished he lived a long life because im sure we would have more classic movies and Oscars for him.
Hear that crowd roar. It's nice to see Humphrey overwhelmed with happiness.
Brando- steetcar is the performance that changed acting and easily the most iconic and enduring of the 3 performances.
Some think this was a "make-up Oscar" for Bogey and that he was better in other roles. Maybe true...but the more you watch African Queen the more you appreciate this unconventional "love story" of two people revealing their power, pride, flaws, and failings and their ultimate covenant to each other. Bogey is just brilliant in holding it on course, keeping it true, and not sliding into sentimentality. Such a well deserved award.
He was a legend, Casa my fav move " Yeah! they wore grey u wore blue" well look it up. or watch the movie
"Not an easy day to forget. I remember every detail. The Germans wore gray, you wore blue." I definitely would've worn blue to that Academy Awards ceremony.
Loved Casablanca, still watch when it comes on.. 2021. Here's looking at you 👶babe
I love how they talked back in the day...American english sounds like crap today.
I could "RAP" about that all day!
He was a well educated.
Actors back then were trained in what was called mid Atlantic English, so a wider audience could understand them.
I am a non native speaker, and it is way easier to me to understand those mid century speeches than current ones. I can watch a classic movie without captions easily, but modern movies, without the aid of captions I'd miss 2/3 of what they say.
@Unkraut60 you mean southern accent? Ebonics is mainly based on southern accent
I wish I could bring back classic Hollywood- when the actors were amazing and the award speeches were short and sweet.
Such class, such brevity: Memo to Robert De Niro and Meryl Streep: This is how it's done. Watch and learn.
Bogart gave many memorable performances but playing Charlie Allnut in African Queen was one of his best. I love that movie. This Best Actor Oscar was so well deserved by this screen icon.
Agree with you. What a character Charlie was. Made for him.
Greer Garson was an absolute doll. My grandfather sold shoes to her a million years ago and said she was adorable.
What 5 terrific actors were nominated. Nothing like them these days.
It was never too late for any Hollywood actor.Ronald Colman got his Oscar for "A Double Life" in 1948 and John Wayne for "True Grit" in 1970.Colman was 57 when he received the Oscar and Wayne was 65.
Humprey Bogart(1899-1957)first gained fame in a gangster role in the "Petrified Forest" just because of his good friend the English actor Leslie Howard(1893-1943).So much that he named one of her twin daughters Leslie.
You know you're a great actor when you win over Brando in a Kazan Picture!
Bogart reminds us that American cinema had substance and class unlike today's superficial attitude and p.c. rhetoric.
Robert Collings people were always superficial.
Happy to see Bogart win one. He was a gem of an actor IMO.
Absolutely agree. Bogey's performance in Treasure of the Sierra Madre give was so outstanding and brilliant that it gives me goosebumps every time I think about it. So was The Big Sleep, Maltese Falcon and Casablanca.
Interesting that the '52 Oscar show was filmed in color, for it seems like yesterday instead of many years in the past. I believe the first Oscar show to be televised was in 1953 or '54, if I'm not mistaken, probably hosted by the best MC of the Academy Awards...Bob Hope.
Celluloidwatcher it was probably a cinema newsreel, the quality is great.
The entire 1952 Oscar ceremony was not filmed in color, or for that matter, neither in its entirety in b&w.
Just particular segments featuring the major awards, such as Bogart's in this color clip, which is an example of that era's color or black & white newsreels summarizing world events, with an off camera narrator describing the particular occasion, and which were shown nationwide on a weekly or semi-weekly basis in movie theatres before the " main feature ".
Up until 1953, the Oscar ceremony was broadcast on coast to coast radio. " The 25th Academy Awards ceremony was held on March 19, 1953. It took place at the RKO Pantages Theatre in Hollywood, and the NBC International Theatre in New York City. It was the first Academy Awards ceremony to be televised, and the first ceremony to be held in Hollywood and New York City simultaneously. "
Bogart will always be my favorite. I wish I had lived in that era. To see Casablanca in a movie theatre ... I can't take my eyes off him. He left us at age 57, in 1957. We wanted more. We still do. Bogart Estate on Twitter is run by his son Stephen. He seems very classy also. I think this award was for his body of work. All these years later, we still love you. Rest in peace, Bogie.
I love to watch Bogie classic dance move with Ingrid Bergman in the movie "Casablanca". George Raft declined the offer to play in that film.
@@nicoletanis3703 Bogart was so natural I can't praise him enough.
Greer Garson; HER GOWN WAS AMAZING....before my time....they were glamourous then too!!!
As an Egyptian, I recently watched Mr. Bogart in Sabrina, and on my way to watch Casablanca, and believe me, he gave me a very amazing impression with his unique voice, his looks, and his way of walking, and when he has a scene with the heroine, he can make you pay attention to what is happening in terms of events. He is really creative.
Sad he died and he was a kafir
Wow he actually beat Brando ! Wow amazing that's what you call Competition Brando and Bogart
Clift, Kennedy and March too, amazing year..
+Jonathan Wilkinson indeed !
Bogie thought Brando was talented but also thought he spoke as if he had a potato in his mouth. Brando scolded him and said that Bogie always played himself.
Not that year. Bogart was brilliant in The African Queen...
Ricardo Cantoral I thought his transformation in The Treasure of Sierra Madre was outstanding though
Listen to that reaction, you can really feel how beloved he was by the people that knew him
Bogart's finest performance was in Treasure of the Sierra Madre.
Dear Lord, please give us back actors such as John Wayne, Charlton Heston, James Cagney, Humphrey Bogart, Gloria Swanson, Katherine Hepburn, Maureen O'Hara and Directors like John Ford.
Not possible. Times have changed. Welcome to shitbag 21st century.
Nope, if America keep up with they way it is then them ol' days shall be as ONLY A DREAM.
*We must get back to our roots*
John wayne: a racist. Charlton Heston: a bad actor and a gun-totin' republican. Humphrey Bogart: a chain smoking adulterer. Katherine Hepburn: a closet lesbian.
@@kevinwilson3609 What the hell is the matter with being a gun toting Republican or a Lesbian ?
@@ricardocantoral7672 nothing wrong with a lesbian but nothing worse than a gun totin' Republican. The point is that the OP longs for stars from the past as if they were someone more classy but we all know they had their share of problems
I agree again. There was nobody cooler than Bogart in MALTESE FALCON (except for maybe Bogie in CASABLANCA). And as you pointed out, we can thank John Huston for giving him that role.
jesus listen to those nominations, a who's who of movies and actors.
Not exactly a crappy year for serious cinema.
indeed!
So gracious to his director and his co-star.
Bogart was good in the movie!! But Brando and Clift delivered stellar performances that are now considered all time classics. What a year!
Love this! Just wish he had won again for "Caine Mutiny." If you've ever seen it, you'll know why I've never looked at strawberries in the same way again since I finally saw it last summer.
Great, great, actor ...Humphrey ...quite an impression on humanity ...memorable 🎭
What a list of great movies and nominees...Brando was great as we all know but Clift was so underrated...he played complex characters with such nuance and style.
What can one say about Bogey other than his best role was his last i believe...The Harder They Fall.
Even in death always the epitome of class and stardom. He was literally raised this way from high society. That poise. That grace. Only Bogart.
Bogart and Hepburn made one of the most endearing and believable couples ever depicted on screen. Charlie Allnutt was indeed one of his best roles. But he was, to say the least, an unlikely Brit. Still an irresistible performance.
His character in the film was Canadian.
“Nature, Mr. Allnutt, is what we are put on this earth to rise above.” Brilliant script, brilliant John Huston, brilliant Bogart and brilliant Hepburn. Blue Nile diamonds all.
Thank God TCM! The only channel I need to watch quality!
old Hollywood. I would give anything to go back and be in the inner circles of those days. i bet they had so much fun.
davidallenroth Amen to that.

The big sleep
Those were golden times in Hollywood. Such great talent and great people with class, manners, wit and charm, not to mention great beauty. Oh for those good old days.
So you would give anything to be an alcoholic and a coke addict? Because that's what they were. Their glamorized image of "classiness" was all fake.
Wow, good video quality for the early 50's. Almost looks like it was recorded in the late 60's or even early 70's.
filmed in Technicolor not video! actual film!
+JSOMERSET994 JSOMERSET994 what's the difference between video and film?
Frame rate, latitude, depth .... basically, it don't come cheap.
@@venaacavaa Film is tiny little pictures one after the other formed within a soup of light-sensitive chemicals supported by a plastic base. Generally 24 little pictures (frames) per second, visible to the naked eye after development.
Video is an electronic signal, either analog or digital.
Film was always high quality, video has just barely gotten in the same league as film recently. Film even today can still be higher quality.
@@MrMahn21 omg, thank you for the answear! But I dont think I understood it entirely :D
Good to see this in colour film and not in kinescope.
They must have been filming this while it was also being televised live.
The class of that era is long gone.
The ultimate man's man
What a powerhouse of actors! Bogart, March, Brando, Clift and Kennedy!!
Congratulations to my most favorite actor. My his soul rest in peace and comfort.Always remembered never forgotten 💔😢
Bogart was so natural I can't praise him enough
Go Bogie! A well-deserved award for an amazing performance in a true Hollywood Classic. Here's looking at YOU!
Happy Birthday to the one and only Humphrey Bogart today! He had a very unique way to turn around. Bogie, a Hollywood legend, is still very much alive in our heart. He did that move in most of his movies, a special trademark. RIP. Thank you for your outstanding performances during that Golden Age of Hollywood.
Bogart was so natural I can't praise him enough
Oh yes! Greer Garson is the cuttest! What a pleasant personality! She had some spark of light that radiated her entire face. She had a very particular beauty called grace! What a woman!! I love her sincerity, sense of humor, charm, and lovely nature!
Bogart was so natural I can't praise him enough.
Short and sweet. My favourite movie of his - The treasure of the sierra madre.
Great actor, real Hollywood star. Classy production this oscars, not like a Bland or Gervais shambles.
Humphrey Bogart has great acting in The African Queen.
I hate you
30 second speech and he was off. Pure class.
And one of the few actors you'd like to hear More from!
If they had a lifetime award Bogart would had won that too . It was a tough pick between Brando and Bogart's perfomances , on that Oscar night . Thanks for posting , its nice to see the "real stars " of Hollywood again .
Bogie often had great roles in great ensemble films. I think that this was, by far, his best one-on-one performance. He was terrific opposite Katharine Hepburn. They brought out the best in one another here. A very well earned Oscar!
So different than today's Oscar winners, who spend minutes thanking this person, that person, every other person, don't forget their husbands and wives ... Humphrey Bogart had a mesmerizing way on screen, truly one of the greats of acting and performing.
