Elizabeth richly deserved her Oscar, but Burton was flat-out robbed of one for his spectacular performance in the film. It would have been perfect, the two of them winning for performances that were the best work they each produced and for roles so intimate.
Agreed! They never came this close to perfection (together or individually) on film again. Paul Scofield. I have to SPIT when I type that; the dullest mumble-fest of the year! Back then, if the New York Times said "______ will win," they won. Burton was robbed. The film's last ten minutes display CONSUMMATE screen acting, with Burton in total command. Taylor was infuriated when he lost, and she wasn't quiet about it, either.
I agree it is a shame that burton never won an oscar instead they gave it to some Shakespearean british actor no one has ever heard or remembers when someone of burton's caliber never wins what's going on maybe Hollywood just didn't like I think his rep as a drunk and I'm not throwing stones blocked him from an oscar and knighthood
The cast was brilliant although Robert Redford who is not my favorite actor turned down the george Segal part I think he might have been better in this role connie Steven's was interested in the sandy dennis part they wouldn't even let her read for the part possible mistake she might have surprised us the way actresses like cher and ann Margaret I have seen her in a film called Susan spade she played an unwed mother she was superb not the usual dizzy blonde that she was typecast as
As everyone has said, one of the most richly deserved Oscars. Taylor delivered an iconic performance. As for Anne Bancroft, my father attended high school with her in the Bronx. Her name was Anna Italiano. She was also an iconic actress, gone way too soon.
poetcomic1 Way too skinny but very pretty. But lets not get carried away now she didn't have a body whatsoever. Her body looms like a little girl, no boobs or anything just meagre.
@@11kwright That's not the body of a little girl. It's the body of a woman. Obvious to me you have some sexual issues. I have been with thin petite women and they are not little girls. They ranged in age from 30's - 60's. You are either a jealous woman or a man with a problem. Women come in all shapes and sizes last time I checked.
And notice how she kept her sexy natural hair style when everybody else's hair was way over styled and ridiculous. A woman in that hair style and that dress would look just as classy today.
I thought the exact same thing but I bet Anne Bancroft didn't stalk Elizabeth or any of the other nominees to collect the Oscar on their behalf unlike Crawford did.
When Wilson the volleyball won, Tom Hanks was there to accept his award because Wilson was somewhere in the Pacific Ocean..🙉🙉🍌🌜🌛🌕🌕🌙🚣♂️🚣♂️🏊♂️🏊♂️🏄♂️🏊♂️🏊♂️🏊♂️🐸🐸🤹♂️🤹♂️🚶♂️
If there's a film that deserves all Oscars in acting categories, I can't think of anything better than "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?". The film relies solely on the four characters, and the performances from the actors range only from very good to great. Simply amazing.
Just after Miss Bancroft ascends the steps to the stage: the way she tosses her head back, her hair flinging out behind her.........Diva-esque and total perfection!
I was surprised, though, that Anne Bancroft did not have a very graceful way of walking and carrying herself. She moved like she was coming home weary from grocery shopping.
@@mguevarra61 Thank you for replying. During high school I took drama classes as an extracurricular activity.

Best deserved Oscar win ever. There could only ever be one Martha, and so appropriate to have the one and only Elizabeth Taylor portray her. Taylor's best work. As well as the other actors and Mike Nichols. An exceptional film in every category.
@@mr29 ....due to which many of them suffered horrible deaths. There was an anti-smoking ad that had photos of 16 of them 4x4 --- I can't remember them all in that particukar ad but it freaked me out. I do remember photos of Humphrey Bogart, Steve McQueen, Duke Ellington, Buster Keaton, Yul Brenner, Desi Arnaz, John Wayne, Nat King Cole, Dean Martin, George Harrison...😥
Just revisted the movie a couple of days ago. No matter what people may think of Elizabeth Taylor, they can't deny that she was an incredible actress, displayed so brilliantly in WAOVF.
For all Anne's "toughness" in movies, she was a real quiet person offscreen. But watching this again as she ascends the stairs her hair covers her face. At the top, she swings her head and there she is-- a bona fide Star!! Who could ever pull that off today? Give me a week to think about it.....
HERBLANDZ exactly because they were the silk screened "STARS", unlike today. Anybody who could slip in Harvey W's dong becomes a star. Or any other studio exec that is. Before, only the reallest faces become celebrities
Renan C. Maia don’t know if you are aware, but there was a significant effort to have ANNE Bancroft portray Maria Callas in a movie of her life, but it never got produced, sadly. I thought she would have been ideal in the part. Today, the only actress who I believe could do justice to Maria Callas would be Cate Blanchett. There have been a number of efforts made to produce a bio-pic of the life of Maria Callas, but, very unfortunately, they have never materialized. Would be curious who you might think would be a viable actress to take on such a challenging role?
@@stephenfletcher6801 Meryl Streep was to play Callas in the film version of the Broadway hit Master Class. Sadly Mike Nichols, who was to direct, died and the project went nowhere.
@@richardmayora5310 disappointing for sure. Eva Mendez is supposed to have been cast to play Callas in “Greek Fire”. Casting someone to play Callas is a near impossible task. Other than Blanchett, I can’t think of a viable candidate.
I did not say Anne had never won an award. I said she'd never ACCEPTED one on camera. She was not there 4 years before. She was present when she won both Tonys in the late 50's but the ceremonies were not televised. She was not present when she won either Emmy. Hence the only time she is presented a competitive award on camera, it belongs to someone else.
Wow! Anne Bancroft was GORGEOUS+++. Her hair her dress was classic and sensational. All the other women in their clothes and hair looked dated and a bit silly. She looked timeless. Mel Brooks was one lucky dude.
Thinking: 2:07 : "Don't smile! Don't smile! It's not supposed to my moment!!! Don't smile" 2:10: Ah screw it! Thank you for this award! I love you all xD
Elizabeth Taylor was scheduled to be the presenter of the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award that night but Irene Dunne subbed for her. What a treat that was!
WHAT A SURPRISE!!!!! I LOOOOOOOOOOOOVE Annie Bancroft sooo much, I watched this because I ADORE Virginia Woolf and wanted to see Liz Taylor accepting this award and what a surprise to see Anne here! YAYAYAY!!!
@JerseySurvivor I agree, Anne Bancroft is breath-taking here, but I must correct you, she had won her own Oscar 4 years before for "The Miracle Worker".
who, by the way is amazing.Anne Bancroft is first of all pretty, especially here, and is one of those great actors that doesn't seem too full of herself, as well as having had one of the best sense of humors in Hollywood women.
Would someone ever ask me what needs to be done, what performance, to deserve an Oscar, I simply would show him or her "Who's afraid of Virginia Wolf?" The definite Masterpiece!! From both, Elizabeth and Richard!
Sandy Dennis' Oscar was accepted by Mike Nichols that night. She was in NY. The only nominees present were Jocelyne LaGarde and and Wendy Hiller who accepted for Paul Scofield.
The year only one of the acting winners was in Santa Monica to accept an Oscar....Walter Matthau. Absent: Elizabeth Taylor, Paul Scofield, and Sandy Dennis. That would never, ever happen today.
If only Georgy Girl was released the year before or after it was, Lynn Redgrave probably would have won the award, alas, Elizabeth Taylor's performance in Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf is one of the best performances ever, surely deserved the prize.
I recall when Lee Marvin came here to Australia on a holiday to do some big game fishing. The news reports showed his party loading the boat with equipment for the trip which included a milk crate. No milk, just whiskey.
Jokingly, I believe Taylor & Burton weren't acting. They brought their tumultuous relationship into this amazing film. Yes, she earned the Oscar.Some scenes are hard to watch, but definitely worth watching 👍
Bancroft looks unbelievable!! I think this is the only time she accepted an award and it wasn't hers!! How about Vanessa's specs? Anouk is still just as breathtaking. Isn't that Lady Redgrave nervously scratching her neck in front of Lynn & John? And dear Ida of the NY Jewish theater. Looking radiant, she was 70 here. Watch Vee give Anne a pat on the back as she passes (did she think it was Liz?). She did a similar thing to Pacino and others as encouragement when winning.
I don't know why, but this clip reassures me that her artistry will live, even though her human form is gone, people will still remember her for the amazing actress she was.
April 10th, 1967. Anne Bancroft was about to begin filming The Graduate 2 weeks later (Mike Nichols 2nd film). Elizabeth was in Nice at the time finishing the film The Comedians.
Elizabeth Taylor deserved that award! She delivered one of the best performances in film history!.

Anne Bancroft was absolutely stunning and a brilliant actress. Man, she's missed.
Loved Anne Bancroft. Elizabeth was spectacular in that movie
I love that very Italian nose on Anna Maria Italiano aka Anne Bancroft.
I met Mel Brooks a few years ago an told him his wife was beautiful. He was stunned when I said it, I think overcome with emotion.
As everyone has said, one of the most richly deserved Oscars. Taylor delivered an iconic performance. As for Anne Bancroft, my father attended high school with her in the Bronx. Her name was Anna Italiano. She was also an iconic actress, gone way too soon.
Just loves the way Lee Marvin opens the envelope!!!! So cool!!!!! And yes, Anne Bancroft looks stunning!!!!!
Anne Bancroft at the exact moment of physical perfection.
We all Or most of us do have our peak physical moment. Agree! She is in full bloom!

Mel Brooks was a lucky man!
There were a million gorgeous women in Hollywood and broadway. Get ahold of yourselves. On a scale of 10 she's a 5 compared to the rest.
God, Anne Bancroft was STUNNING!!
Bancroft was probably shooting The Graduate at this time!
+Mikey Trahant She sure was! HOT! HOT! HOT!
No I don't think so my husband won't be home for several hours,sit down Benjamin.
Wow, Anne Bancroft(Mrs.Robinson)was ready to be seduced.
Damn straight! She was smokin hot'!!!
And notice how she kept her sexy natural hair style when everybody else's hair was way over styled and ridiculous.
A woman in that hair style and that dress would look just as classy today.
No contest. Taylor's performance in WAOVW was phenomenal and blew the competition out of the water.
It's funny. When Bancroft won, she was not there to accept. Joan Crawford accepted for her.
When Elizabeth won, Bancroft accepted for her.
And apparently, Joan Crawford kept the Oscar trophy for a year or so, before returning it to Bancroft
I thought the exact same thing but I bet Anne Bancroft didn't stalk Elizabeth or any of the other nominees to collect the Oscar on their behalf unlike Crawford did.

Anne Bancroft was a class act. I just watched the Miracle Worker last night. She was an exceptional actress.
You said it! In fact, it is my opinion that Anne Bancroft's performance in TMW was on the best ever to win the Best Actress Oscar. Amazing!!
If there's a film that deserves all Oscars in acting categories, I can't think of anything better than "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?". The film relies solely on the four characters, and the performances from the actors range only from very good to great. Simply amazing.

"A Streetcar Named Desire" and "Network"
Just after Miss Bancroft ascends the steps to the stage: the way she tosses her head back, her hair flinging out behind her.........Diva-esque and total perfection!

"I'm not her!" Wonderful. Such a well deserved Oscar and Anne Bancroft finally getting up there, a few years too late ;-)
Anne is gorgeous n her voice is amazing

The great Lee Marvin and Bob Hope, and when the Oscars and this industry still had class, humility, and decorum.
Anne Bancroft reminds me of Jackie Kennedy....both outstanding women.
Wow Lee Marvin was such a handsome young man!
One of the best performances by and actress of all time.
yes
Anne Bancroft's hair was sensationally gorgeous and simple. All those contrived piled up hair-do's in that period were the pits.
I do believe you're right!💁♀️
Anne Bancroft looks radiant !!!
Anne Bancroft is gorgeous but WOW - Lee Marvin, one sexy beast!

Agreed
Anouk rocks my world to this day!
Ida Kaminska is so friggin' adorable here! One of the few people there smiling, haha. What a sweet old lady.
Anouk Aimee looks as if she is falling asleep! Lynn Redgrave seems so anxious. It must really be a heart-stopping moment to hear your name read out.

Lee Marvin seems cool. Gonna have to check out one of his movies.
Jokingly, I believe Taylor & Burton weren't acting. They brought their tumultuous relationship into this amazing film. Yes, she earned the Oscar.Some scenes are hard to watch, but definitely worth watching 👍
Bob Hope was the greatest host, followed by Johnny Carson.
Elizabeth winning for this performance is rightly deserved. Brilliant!
How did Richard Burton not win for the same film?
Paul Scofield was phenomenal in A Man For All Seasons
+Ryan Gillis Agreed! so was Arkin :)
Richard was brilliant and deserved the oscar
If it hadn't been for Paul Scofield, Burton almost certainly would have won.
They overlooked him purposely
“Accepting for Anne Bancroft: Miss Joan Crawford”
