No, Hamilton was married to actor Bruce Abbott from 1987-1989. Cameron was married to Bigelow from 1989-1991, as spaceye stated. Hamilton and Cameron hooked up after his divorce from Bigelow. They married in 1997 but divorced two years later. Cameron immediately began dating Suzi Amis, who'd appeared in TITANIC as Lizzy Calbert, Old Rose's granddaughter. They married in 2000, and have been together ever since.
+musicaltheatergeek79 Do you have any idea who the man sitting next to Kathryn Bigelow-at the 2010 Oscars-is?Sorry about the horrific sentence structure.I know I've seen that face before.
yes i know they were married, and i know that it ended in rather acrimonious circumstances (i.e. Cameron having an affair) which is why i would think they would have rather negative feelings towards each other. it was good to see otherwise
He has won multiple Oscars but non for best director . He will get it . Me personally I think his screenplays are magnificent so I am not surprised he has won for screenwriting first rather than director . He will get one eventually. Martin Scorsese won his first for directing in 2007 I think for the departed .
The four women who have been nominated for Best Director - their movies are all great watch. Lina Wertmuller for Seven Beauties, Jane Campion for The Piano, Sofia Coppola for Lost in Translation and Bigelow for Locker - all masterclass films.
The fact that Zhao would only be the second female director is frustrating. Even though it would be RIGHTFULLY DESERVED, it's highly disheartening and unnerving that talented women have been foregone for so long from Kimberly Pierce to Patty Jenkins. I hope both Zhao and King will be nominated. Everyone is able to write stories and I'm forever grateful for those men and women who were and are gifted to breathe life into human imagination and materialize it on screen.
Barbra always wanted a best director Oscar, and here she is presenting a best director Oscar to the first female. I’m sure she was happy someone was recognized, but I’m sure she wanted that historical title
Three class Acts...Barbra Streisand (Who should have been the first recipient of Best Director for a woman), Second...James Cameron, Bigelows ex-husband was FIRST on his feet in giving recognition to Bigelow...and Third, Kathryn Bigelow herself...one hell of a Director, who followed up The Hurt Locker with Zero Dark Thirty. Congratulations Kathyrn, you have broken the mould for women in film.
While yes, The Hurt Locker and Zero Dark Thirty are her best works to date, I think her best jewel of all is Strange Days, which is actually in my top 5. She made history back then as the first woman to ever win the Saturn Award for Best Director. Trust me, when you watch it, you don't think of a woman directing it. It's gut-wrenching to watch some of the scenes, but it's very intense.
I remember watching this on TV and my mother went insane saying "Watch this, sweetie! This is history we're watching!" I believe it was about time a woman got recognized for directing a great, realistic film. I was happy for Kathryn and I wouldn't change a thing about it! XD
Kathryn deserved it more than James, not by far, but she definitely did a better job with the resources she had to work with. I'd say there's no argument here whatsoever. PS: Wished Barbra didn't have to say "the time has come". She probably made Lee Daniels hopeful in the process
It's a reference to her observations during her presentation of the Best Director award from the 65th Academy Awards. She was taking a shot at the fact that there was no woman director nominated during "The Year of the Woman" that ceremony .
When Barbra Streisand appeared, I knew that the award would go to Kathryn, Barbra was the first woman to simultaneously produce, direct, write and act in a movie. This now explains why she was there to give this award to Kathryn the first woman to win an Oscar for best director. To this milestone in Oscar history, could only have been her, it was obvious.
Artwork Kitchen she helped him on Avatar, and James Cameron gave her advice on hurt locker. Just because you’re divorced, doesn’t mean there isn’t history. He wanted her to win. He said it himself.
"Well, the time has come!" Barbra is so special... The Academy stole her Oscar! She deserved the Oscar as Best Director for "The prince of tides", undoubtedly!
Well......... Sofia Coppola, Jane Campion, Claire Denis, Julie Taymor, Andrea Arnold, Ava DuVernay, Isabel Coixet, Claudia Saint-Luce, Patty Jenkins, Kimberly Peirce, AGNÈS VARDA, Chantal Akerman, et. al. don't agree with that statement, sir. ;) But yeah, she is pretty great.
Streisand did an amazing job directing Yentl, but admittedly there was some very impressive competition in the directorial arena that year (Ingmar Bergman, Mike Nichols, James L. Brooks). So I don't know that she actually should have made the cut for a nomination that year... but very possibly. I thought that another director who was possibly overlooked that year was Bob Fosse for directing Star 80. But the film was not all that liked by some, though generally regarded as being well made.
it is a gender consideration when most part of the academy voting body is (was) made up of men, and old men who still live in a sexist, mysoginistic world..
I love Jason Reitman's reaction when Streisand says "Well the time has come". It's like he's thinking to himself "Well, it's not me. No big deal though, I'm happy for Kathryn." Shows how down to earth that man is.
I remember watching her win. I was so moved. She directed an amazing film that captured the toll of war on its soldiers. That scene where Jeremy pulled a bomb octopus was the best part of the movie. I mean she directed films that would have needed so much testosterone. She gave it such sensitivity that you were propelled by the emotions and not the action. She is amazing, and I am so happy for her
I am a Japanese uni student and researched about female directors in Hollywood. I was impressed her reaction for the award, and I also hope that more female directors would have a chance to express their feelings, ideas, and philosophy.
And now Kathryn isn't the only female director to win Best Director. Congrats Chloe the first Asian Woman and the second female director to win Best Director. I hope more female directors win an Oscar for Best Director. It's time for The Academy to acknowledge more of women's talent in directing
next achievements - the first black/latino/native woman to win best director, the first gay/queer woman, the first nonbinary director, the first plus-sized woman, the first crippled woman, the first neurodivergent woman. countless possibilities. praising everything except what matters the most, the filmmaking talent. cinema is dead.
@@stvk99 it's history making obviously especially for female directors that The Academy usually snubbed many times. Like I said, it's time for The Academy to acknowledge more of women's talent in directing, proof that women can direct movies as good as men, they still acknowledge the talent anyways. Anthony Hopkins is the oldest actor to win Beat Avtor but The Academy still acknowledge his talent for his performance. Cinema isn't dead, it's not like movies revolve around comic book movies nowadays, there are a lot of movies that are really great and even Oscar worthy, you're just the one who's dumb and lazy enough to not watch it
@@Erasureeraser the thing is, Zhao's movie is not Oscar worthy. Some indie festival award maybe, at best. She was picked only because of Oscar's quotas of female/poc nominees. And nothing else.
@@stvk99 nah, Zhao deserved her Oscar for Best Director. Even she won nurmoeus Directing awards at film festivals before the Oscars, basically they chosen Best Director because of the talent. Zhao's Nomadland was beautifully directed the way she directed Frances McDormand aswell as the real life Nomads with non conventional screenplay that they all have to improvised for the movie. It's not easy to balance the way of her crafted the movie which somewhat look like a documentary and somewhat look like a drama. She made a beautiful looking movie, she absolutely deserved it because of her talent, not because she's a woman. She was brave enough to take risks for Nomadland in a way that nobody could. I guess your the one who's should be crying that a female director won the Oscar for Best Directors. Boo hoo get tf out of here troll 🤡🤡🤡
It took 5 years from Zero Dark Thirty to Detroit, so it might take another 5 years from Detroit to the new movie. So I think we'll probably see a new movie from her next year or the year after that. Yeah, I can't wait to see her new movie too.
for those of you saying kathryn bigelow should not have one because she was a woman really ... women are needed in film directing and alot of women aren't being recognized as directors and she was .... I'm glad she won and I loved her film's she directed so yeah the time has come and kathrine bigelow became the first woman director to win an Oscar so smh she made history ...
Usually I do, like when Julia Roberts said, "I love my life" before announcing Denzel as winner, but this was such a huge moment that it didn't bother me.
She should've been nominated again this year for "Zero Dark Thirty". I know the ridiculous controversy had something to do with it, but sexism also seems like a factor in it as well. Unbelievable.
@@triplea7536 She's the only woman to win in nearly 100 years of the Oscars... 10 years after this not a single other woman has won. Sexism / racism etc does not magically disappear with one recognition. It took from Hattie McDaniel in 1940 all the way to Sidney Poitier in 1964 for another African American to be recognized by the Academy.
@@triplea7536 I stopped reading on your first sentence. The nerve to call me ignorant then to go on some ridiculous rant appropriate for Fox News... One woman winning an award does not negate the fact that we've had over like 90 years where a woman hasn't won and / or wasn't even nominated. Just because a woman won does not mean "omg! Sexism is gone for good!" That's what's truly ignorant to assume.
Honestly there was no competition for Kathryn Bigelow and for her film "The hurt locker". ..the one film that came close was "up in the air"....The lady is amongst the very best directors hollywood currently have....salute to Kathryn..."The Hurt locker" is among my alltime short list of 10 movies
And Barbra should be the first female director to win. She was seriously snubbed twice: for "Yentl" (Golden Globe Winner) and for "The Prince of Tides" - she wasn't even nominated. Unfortunately, The Academy never made justice to this brilliant and singular woman. Streidand is a great and gifted artist. She's the one and a landmark in show business and great Art.
Bigalow didn’t win because she was a woman, she won because of her Merit behind the Camera. Hurt Locker is just that damn good. A legitimate Oscar Win as compared to today where everyone wins because of race/gender.
I believe she shattered the glass ceiling when she won the Best Director Oscar and, "The Hurt Locker," won the Best Picture Oscar. Plus, she paved the way for Patty Jenkins ("Monster", "Wonder Woman"), Kasi Lemmons ("Eve's Bayou", "Harriet"), Susanna Fogel ("Life Partners", "The Spy Who Dumped Me"), Lulu Wang ("Posthumous", "The Farewell") and Suzi Yoonessi ("Dear Lemon Lima", "Daphne & Velma").
to those of you who do not comprehend the significance of barbra's presentation - her film, the prince of tides, was nominated for a mulititude of oscars, including best picture, but babs was not recognized even by a nomination for best director. the snub was apparent, and the recognition afforded babs by given the honor of this presentation was the very least the academy could do for their egregious snob of years ago. i believe that both streisand and bigelow were truly honored by the moment.
Saw her speak and take questions tonight at MoMA in NY where they're having a complete retrospective of her movies. Wonderful, articulate, gracious, and one of the most strikingly beautiful women I've ever seen. If I'd encountered her 20 or 30 years ago, I might've dropped dead.
What is duly-impressive about this win is the fact that The Hurt Locker was a big, explosive action film shot on location in the Middle East. It’s rare to find a female director who would gravitate towards a film of that genre, and the technical complexities it entails.
Glad she won! Well earned! But I as a women would have said a few words at the end about Barbara who really opened doors so she could be standing there! But regardless congrats 🎉
I mean, as soon as she walked out and they were presenting best director... Barbra made some female directing history herself. I can read between the lines. It was pretty obvious without her making her speech. as it should have been for everyone in the room. They were going for the whole Passing the torch kinda documented historic televised moment.
Babs extends hand at 0:18 with envelope still in it towards the approaching young man, who reaches for said envelope. And by the time his fingers make contact with said envelope, she's already made it down one step by herself. He understandably reaches to take envelope, and does so. Babs lowers her right arm, bending the envelope like gloved fingers waiting to be venerated with a kiss, and then it becomes apparent to him that what she wanted and expected was assistance down the next two steps. Babs continues to treat envelope like extension of hand and assistant like dirt. Then gives away award she clearly expected to win first, saying to Bigelow at 3:28, "Can I hold it?" Oh, Babs.
Kathryn Bigelow the 1st female won for Best Director and Best Picture Chloé Zhao now the 2nd won and hopefully more women or nay gender and ethnicity to win the Oscar Best Director it becomes just a normal win to all
This was the best moment of the Oscars for me, personally. I was unsure whether I was cheering for the inspiration Kathryn Bigelow gives us all or just the look on James Cameron's face. :D
Oscar Winner Kathryn Bigelow | Best Directing for 'The Hurt Locker' ►► ua-cam.com/users/shortssKjDxL4rB7s
In case anyone's forgotten, James Cameron and Kathryn Bigelow were married to each other from 1989 to 1991.

No, Hamilton was married to actor Bruce Abbott from 1987-1989.

What a great speech. How admirable it was to humbly give credit to all of those people she worked with.
to those of you who do not comprehend the significance of barbra's presentation - her film, the prince of tides, was nominated for a mulititude of oscars, including best picture, but babs was not recognized even by a nomination for best director. the snub was apparent, and the recognition afforded babs by given the honor of this presentation was the very least the academy could do for their egregious snob of years ago. i believe that both streisand and bigelow were truly honored by the moment.
It's great to see Kathryn Bigelow winning an Oscar...she truly deserved it!
Barbra Streisand. Causing all the Oscar milestones. Caused actress tie, presented rapper best song, presented female best director.
I've always thought she deserved an Oscar for directing Strange Days! That movie is terrific!
The Hurt Locker was amazing it blew me away
I love how Barbra respects the words, especially the names. Nowadays it’s an announcer because presenters can’t be bothered to rehearse like she did.
2:43 just love watching Steve Jobs sitting behind Jason Reitman
james cameron at 5:36 thinking "damn why'd i divorce her"
Haha
I loved The Hurt Locker this was such a historic moment i need to see the film again
"[Lee Daniels] wanted to make a movie that was so true to the book"
so the first thing he did was change the title
" the secret to directing is collaborating " - kathryn bigelow .
Really sad that Barbra was not nominated for YENTL, 1983. Best Director.
Saw her speak and take questions tonight at MoMA in NY where they're having a complete retrospective of her movies. Wonderful, articulate, gracious, and one of the most strikingly beautiful women I've ever seen. If I'd encountered her 20 or 30 years ago, I might've dropped dead.
Mark Boal was crying! :3 I just love that Team!
One of the best directors of all time
What is duly-impressive about this win is the fact that The Hurt Locker was a big, explosive action film shot on location in the Middle East. It’s rare to find a female director who would gravitate towards a film of that genre, and the technical complexities it entails.
I know...most women director tend to make movies on love stories or women's issues
Kathryn is so adorable...
Bigelow, Cameron and his wife sitting next to each other. Not awkward at all.
cried like a baby, so deserving and such an amazing talent!
Glad she won! Well earned! But I as a women would have said a few words at the end about Barbara who really opened doors so she could be standing there! But regardless congrats 🎉
she totally deserved it!! come on!! she directed point break 20 years ago, i knew she was great then.
I love the fact that they are playing The way we were and then Bigelow wins. Perfect.
I mean, as soon as she walked out and they were presenting best director... Barbra made some female directing history herself. I can read between the lines. It was pretty obvious without her making her speech. as it should have been for everyone in the room.
They were going for the whole
Passing the torch kinda documented historic televised moment.
she is still to this day the only women to have won best director in all Oscar history.
Not anymore. Now Chloe Zhao & Jane Campion have won it too.
qt's face...worth a thousand words
I adore "The way we were" theme.
Babs extends hand at 0:18 with envelope still in it towards the approaching young man, who reaches for said envelope. And by the time his fingers make contact with said envelope, she's already made it down one step by herself. He understandably reaches to take envelope, and does so. Babs lowers her right arm, bending the envelope like gloved fingers waiting to be venerated with a kiss, and then it becomes apparent to him that what she wanted and expected was assistance down the next two steps. Babs continues to treat envelope like extension of hand and assistant like dirt. Then gives away award she clearly expected to win first, saying to Bigelow at 3:28, "Can I hold it?" Oh, Babs.
Kathryn Bigelow the 1st female won for Best Director and Best Picture
Chloé Zhao now the 2nd won
and hopefully more women or nay gender and ethnicity to win the Oscar Best Director it becomes just a normal win to all
This moment should never go unnoticed
This was the best moment of the Oscars for me, personally. I was unsure whether I was cheering for the inspiration Kathryn Bigelow gives us all or just the look on James Cameron's face. :D
Poor Lee Daniels. When Barbz said ‘the time has come’ his heart would have dropped to his tummy
I'm sooo happy for her ❤😭❤
Fantastic filmmaker. "Point Break" and "Strange Days" are two of my favorite movies.
Who's back after Oscar 2021?
Not a female director nor a male director but a FILM director! And congratulations!
Terrific film from a terrific director. Gender irrelevant. Much of her work since The Hurt Locker has been just as Oscarworthy.
She's so humble!!!!!
chloe zhao about to become the second woman to win this i know thats right
