RIP Milos Forman, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, The People vs. Larry Flynt, Man on the Moon, Hair, The Firemen's Ball, Ragtime. All Classics But for me, Amadeus will always be his greatest achievement, and (especially in one of it's worst decades) the rare instance of the Academy giving Best Picture to the actual best picture of that year.
I disagree. Schindlers List was well deserving of its Oscar for Best Picture. By far the most important Oscar winner ever. Amadeus a second in my opinion.
"I want to thank the whole company of the actors and the whole company behind the camera, Twyla Tharp, Neville Marriner, Miroslav Ondrícek and WOLFGANG MOZART"----That's the classy, masterly way to show your gratitude.
David Lean - a titan! A long career with some great titles that are landmarks in film history. One of those directors that took a long time to prepare and then to shoot and complete, but monumental films when they came out.
jwelch5742 you ALWAYS agree totally? I mean of course, nobody (except the movie crash, if you ask me) wins for nothing, but don't you sometimes think "I would have given it to .... except .... "?
Andres Rodriguez well, I know what you mean and I know that. I used the word musical as adjective to describe the film and not to refer to the subject of the film. if I say musical genius, do i mean the person was a genius in the musical film only? I hope you get it.
Milos Forman was always one of my favorite film directors, and I think he totally deserved those Oscars for directing One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest and Amadeus
Wow this was one of Spielberg's early appearances as a presenter for Best Director or Best Picture way before he won the Oscar and now he's been a presenter in either category multiple times since.
Milos Forman is well deserved (he's one of my favorite directors), but seeing David Lean sit there, having gone through the hell he did directing A Passage To India, and, even though having already won two awards for Best Director, it's sad to see him lose. Certainly my second choice.
Milos deserved it but I was too distracted with Steven, him without his beard really made him look like the young Liam Neeson whom he later collaborated with in "Schindler's List"
Marta - Your great american director Steven S. stoled (?!, sorry for my "english") one scene of the movie directed by Juraj Herz, the czech director. I am talking about the "shower scene" in the Schindler´s List. This scene is a brutal copy from Herz´s film Mne soudila noc. Juraj Herz passed away in the same week as Miloš Forman. Oba dva RIP, čili odpočívejte v pokoji.
So much talent, every film nominated Oscar worthy. A Passage To India, The Killing Fields, Amadeus etc. Today, we have nothing like it, and these kind of timeless, magnificent films are sorely missed.
Great decision by the Academy. Almost makes me wish Forman had not already won for Cuckoo's Nest in '75 so that Sidney Lumet ("Dog Day Afternoon") or Stanley Kubrick ("Barry Lyndon") would've won Best Director that year instead.
***** Who wasn't nominated, which makes it easier for me to vote for Lumet. Because Kubrick should've won for 2001 at least and Spielberg would win two in the future anyway.
Ragtime (1981) is an underrated film based on the E.L. Doctorow novel. Milos Forman should have received a Best Director nomination and Best Picture for the film. (it was still nominated for 8 Oscars) it won 0. Great director R.I.P.
"Ragtime" is incredible and deserves to be rediscovered, and Forman is somehow an underrated director despite winning two Oscars. He's an absolute master of the craft.
Amadeus con el tiempo y muy merecidamente se ha convertido en una de las mejores peliculas de todos los tiempos y no solo por magnificar la pasion sono q el merito enorme de Milos Forman ha sido de hacer conocer al mundo el genio musical de Mozart de permitir que muchas personas enciendan su espiritu con el fuego que solo la musica puede hacer..despues de la pelicula por ejemplo escuchar el Kirie de la Misa 427 con tanta conmocion fue posible y para muchas generaciones....
I'll bet spielberg was hoping that David lean would win. Cause he had the highest respect for him...and presenting him with an oscar would have meant the world to him
The Injustice here is that Sergio Leone wasn't even nominated. He clearly deserved the oscar and was totally snubbed by the academy. Once upon a time in America should have swept, and it was totally snubbed.
@@osmanyousif7849 Sad but true. I remember Siskel and Ebert talking about the U.S. cut of Once Upon a Time in America as being a total travesty. That cut of the film was one of the worst of the year. The version we all know today was the version that they put on their best film list.
the guy François Truffaut that Spielberg respects in his opening speech was a pure cinephile, also a director and one of the few that had an extensive interview with Alfred Hitchcock...he was also in Close encounters of the third kind as a scientist when the ship arrives....just my 2 bit
Miloš Forman,what a finest filmmaker he is. There's only three movie in oscar history won big five major academic awards and one of his own movie "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest".. Amadeus won already big four academic awards even though there’s nothing much to show female performances in it if that so he won the second time big five categories..
NOT TO TAKE AWAY FROM THE INCOMPARABLE MILOS FORMAN BUT DAVID LEAN HAS MY APPRECIATION FOR DIRECTING LAWRENCE OF ARABIA ALL THOSE YEARS AGO IN 1963 AND HE AS WELL WON BEST DIRECTOR
You will be remembered. RIP Miloš Forman.
One of the greatest movies made!
Amadeus is 3 hours long and there isn't one dull moment in the movie. One in a million.
158 minutes.
Unless you watch the directors cut. Some really unnecessary stuff put back in.
@@ResistanceQuest director's cut is actually better and there are some scenes that improve the movie.
Absolutely deserving, Amadeus is one of the greatest movies of all time.
mortimer1976 More than that ! A Piece of Magic 😍
Amadeus is pop-music, joke, disco, not artifical film.
Jiří Housa the fuck are you talking about?
true
it's right up there alongside
*'Andy Warhol's BAD'*
It is, for sure it is.
RIP Milos Forman, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, The People vs. Larry Flynt, Man on the Moon, Hair, The Firemen's Ball, Ragtime. All Classics
But for me, Amadeus will always be his greatest achievement, and (especially in one of it's worst decades) the rare instance of the Academy giving Best Picture to the actual best picture of that year.
Hallo, Hair! :)
I disagree. Schindlers List was well deserving of its Oscar for Best Picture. By far the most important Oscar winner ever. Amadeus a second in my opinion.
@@sarkaprokopova7726 Of course I would include Schindler's list in that category.
That movie is nothing short of a masterpiece.

Yep. Notice how F Murray Abraham couldn’t help but smile at that
Upřímnou soustrast, děkujeme pane Formane za Vaši skvělou práci. Vaše filmy jsou unikátní, ráda se k nim vracím.
R.I.P. from Morava
Goodbye Milos. I'll thank you for this masterpiece forever
Isn't it amazing that Woody's expression didn't change at all, after he found out he didn't win?
Pilletta Doinswartsh fuck him
Pff, didn't even clap for Forman ...
@@HAL-vm3wn woody was not present
@@kathymillard4510 duhhhhh really?
Excuse, but there's a reason why Woody never shows up at the Oscars? Or he simply didn't give a shit?
1:58 David Lean showing his happiness for Milos Forman's win. A classy act.
Game recognizes game
"Amadeus" may have won, but "A Passage to India" is equally a masterpiece.
@@bscottb8 true 🤟
True! Because they tied with both winning 4 Academy Awards (2 for Best Director and 2 for Best Picture each)
David Lean - a titan! A long career with some great titles that are landmarks in film history. One of those directors that took a long time to prepare and then to shoot and complete, but monumental films when they came out.
RIP Milos. You've made some of the most inspirational films of my life.
2 of the greatest movies of all time. Both well deserved Academy Award wins. RIP Milos Forman.
Amadeus has great directing.
You seem to comment on EVERY award video. Why? I'm not saying it's a bad thing I'm just puzzlec
+yo1659 I like winners because they study, work hard and be creative on their talent. I'm the only person who agreed with the oscar voters.
+yo1659 come on its not that hard to know why
jwelch5742 you ALWAYS agree totally? I mean of course, nobody (except the movie crash, if you ask me) wins for nothing, but don't you sometimes think "I would have given it to .... except .... "?
You wanna know why, I'll tell you why, The answer is at ua-cam.com/video/SgQXYZW9Vfg/v-deo.html.
RIP. One of the greats
the greatest musical movie of all time!
*****
the what is it? horror?
Dennis Villegas It's a movie about music but it isn't a musical
Andres Rodriguez
well, I know what you mean and I know that. I used the word musical as adjective to describe the film and not to refer to the subject of the film. if I say musical genius, do i mean the person was a genius in the musical film only? I hope you get it.
Dennis Villegas Yes, i understand what you mean
Absolutely!!
Gran director Milos Forman..RIP.😔
RIP Milos
One of the best movies ever
Absolutely!
Spielberg looks so young, he was pretty good looking for his age at that time.
Steven was rocking that mullet hair!!!!! LOL!!!!!
Another example of Spielberg holding an Oscar before winning for Schindler's list and swearing he had never hold an Oscar.
***** I didn't know that. So, for me this solves an issue that has lasted 20 years, lol.
Also, you'll notice here that he handled only the base and not the statuette itself.
And Saving Private Ryan as well
Mr.Forman was from my country, from Czechoslovakia..
You own an entire country? Wow you must be rich! :oP
So is jaromir jagr😍😍😍
Never forget spring of '68!!!!!!!!!!!💪💪💪💪💪💪✌
Milos Forman was always one of my favorite film directors, and I think he totally deserved those Oscars for directing One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest and Amadeus
Milos speech a class act.
Wow this was one of Spielberg's early appearances as a presenter for Best Director or Best Picture way before he won the Oscar and now he's been a presenter in either category multiple times since.
Rest in peace, legend.

weaker than some years in directing.

My`n too...

May he rest in peace.

Man, five excellent movies. But Amadeus is still one I enjoy watching. Beautiful entertaining movie. F Murray Abraham was stupendous!
Rest in piece. Movie legend
Milos Forman forever！
Ragtime (1981) is an underrated film based on the E.L. Doctorow novel.
Milos Forman should have received a Best Director nomination
and Best Picture for the film. (it was still nominated for 8 Oscars)
it won 0. Great director R.I.P.

Esto es nivel de cine, y no lo que se hace ahora
Rest in peace sr milos 😔
Wow. What a great year for movies.
Great director.
I think they should have give an oscar to David lean just for being there sitting with the rest,,, what an honour!
Truffaut and Milos Forman were two of the best ever movie directors.
They were also good friends. Milos was the last person outside his family to visit him before his death
I miss Jack Lemmon (and Francois Truffault) so much. :(
I'll bet spielberg was hoping that David lean would win. Cause he had the highest respect for him...and presenting him with an oscar would have meant the world to him
Totally right David Lean meant as much for him as François Truffaut.
incredible film and an important moment.
That was an awesome speech.
Nice that Spielberg first gave tribute to Truffaut - and then awarded Forman
We are unlikely to see any movie like "Amadeus" ever again.
The Injustice here is that Sergio Leone wasn't even nominated. He clearly deserved the oscar and was totally snubbed by the academy. Once upon a time in America should have swept, and it was totally snubbed.
honestly if Once Upon a Time In America was nominated for oscars it would’ve been neck n neck with Amadeus
But the acting award still goes to Murray Abraham.
@@gsanks of course, extremely deserved
Because the studio ruined his masterpiece, his magnum opus, his literal final artwork.

R.I.P Milos Forman
great movie!
What a year for movies that was!!! Tough Choice
Watch Milos in Sodankylä forever!!😊😊😍
Milos. ...solid name 🎭
his movie 'ragtimes' is one of my all time favorites
R.I.P. :(
Well deserved!!! This night the Oscars were right!! not like this days!!!
R.I.P Milos
he was the great just great
A true master of classical cinema
I can't help but be reminded of Jeff Bridges when I see Spielberg look like this.
RIP Miloš
Anyone else notice FMA's smile falter around the 2:50 mark when Milos brings up Mozart's name? Perhaps Salieri was still inside him? Lol

@@harrenhal206 you started it baby, I was posting a fact and you tried a terrible piece of trolling that's.. Let's say embarrassing 😉

Well the stage set was already shaped like a combination of the letters W (olfgang) and A (madeus).
I am proud Czech
Miloš Forman,what a finest filmmaker he is.
There's only three movie in oscar history won big five major academic awards and one of his own movie "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest"..
Amadeus won already big four academic awards even though there’s nothing much to show female performances in it if that so he won the second time big five categories..
2:01. You can see the ABC circle logo on one of the cameras.
R.I.P. master
milos forman made taking off in 1971,,,includes a young lady singing about the f word so sweetly you`d think butter wouldn`t melt in her mouth!
Amadeus❤
Director only Amadeus could deserve
RIP
it was no brainer.... AMADEUS.
Look at Steven Spielberg! Rocking that jehri curl!
2:00 Does anyone know the title of this song?
So why do they have Robert Benton in the thumbnail?
Tough competition this year. Killing Fields and A Passage to India.
NOT TO TAKE AWAY FROM THE INCOMPARABLE MILOS FORMAN BUT DAVID LEAN HAS MY APPRECIATION FOR DIRECTING LAWRENCE OF ARABIA ALL THOSE YEARS AGO IN 1963 AND HE AS WELL WON BEST DIRECTOR
Hero.
spielberg jovencito
dat hair doe.
Swap Woody Allen with Sergio Leone
And Wim Wenders should have been nominated for Paris, Texas
He should've won imo. Not that milos didn't 110% deserve it but paris texas is just amazing
Joffe had a little accident in his pants when they called Forman's name.
Spielberg looked liked a History/Philosophy teacher.
Steven look so cute...!!!
Spielberg looks different without the beard!
