Oh grow up you. Manifesting is a LIE, PR bubble of nothingness, big wordsalad that is sold at industrial scale to naive fools like you. People don't manifest illness, war, misery, abuse, starvation... You wanna think you're in control, go ahead. Wait till life suprises you. Look around, and think how much of this is ''manifested'', did I manifest lifelong illness, tell me? Do you not realize how callous this ridiculous belief is?
Brilliant, one of the most talented complicated and interesting people to ever walk the earth. Thank you Shirley Maclaine for everything you have given to entertainment. What a lady!
Fun fact is that every time Jack Nicholson won Oscar, main actress also won Oscar. Louise Fletcher in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest Shirley MacLaine in Terms of Endearment and Helen Hunt in As Good as It Gets.

Totally agree with you. Also there should have been at least another Oscar nomination for Madame Sousatzka (1988), which I consider to be her finest "mature" screen performance.
I agree her acceptance speech brilliantly walked the line between showing grace, gratitude and also rightfully acknowledging herself for something she did deserve. It doesn't get better than this.
I just watched the movie and I couldn't agree more. She was so classic, so genuine, so raw in that scene. whew And my fav scene of Debra's was the moment of her death. Wowza. She convinced me.
That part of “Terms of Endearment “ where Debra Winger reaches out her hand to her mother right before she dies is really powerful. If that doesn’t cause emotions then nothing will.
just watched "terms of endearment" again for the first time in several years....Shirley definitely deserved the Oscar.....its one of the best "best actress" wins ever! and the movie still stands as one of Hollywood greatest tearjerkers of all time!
zanetierney It's odd I guess, that I've never seen that movie. I certainly remember it being out (I'm turning 50 this year), but it just never appealed to me and I still haven't seen it.
Big Valley don't forget she is also Warren Beatty's sister, maybe Warren was less cocky than Shirley, but still it should have being a tie not, beating by 5 procent of the voting, maybe Maclaine has beat Winger by 5 procent at the time
There are roles for older women but she is getting older. The awards are flawed in that way really. Also, sometimes but not always they jinx the person and they are never heard from again.
The death scene in terms is simply one of the most amazing scenes in cinematic history. From the "look" from Debra to the background music even. But, the interaction between Shirley and Jeff in the scene is what does it for me. Throughout the movie their characters relationships with each other was tumultuous but yet they hugged still. Man this whole movie is something else indeed.
I loved the sequel to "Terms of Endearment" called " The Evening Star. " Not many people know about it as everyone I've asked say they've never heard of it. Shirley MacLaine and Jack Nicholson are both in it. It shows you afterwards when the Grandchildren have grown up. Juliet Lewis plays the teenage Granddaughter. The full movie is on RUclips. Definitely worth a watch ruclips.net/video/CLyW7HVfGkE/видео.html
@@GG1Productions You should look up how Diane Wager farted in her face, and how and Jack held her down while Wagner licked her leg. I sometimes wonder how Timothy dealt with her.
I had forgotten what an incredibly strong category it was that year, as well. Any one of those women would have been an absolute lock in another year, but Shirley's performance in "Terms of Endearment" really was worthy of winning.
@@danielscottrussell3365 Who would have expected roughly 18 months later Rock Hudson who presented Shirley MacLaine with her Oscar that night would be dead from complications of AIDS at 59.
For real. I didn't realize she was up against Meryl Streep in Silkwood! I think I remember her saying in one of her books that she manifested this win. So happy for her.
So true. In Debra’s last scene, just before she dies, she looks at Shirley McLaine and says goodbye with a flicker of her eyes. No words needed. That is true acting.
VERY deserved win here. People can say what they want about MacLaine, and think that she's weird with all her otherworldly and spiritual beliefs, but she is a BRILLIANT actress, and that can't be disputed.
+Love Animals At least Shirley has a sense of humor about her off-center beliefs. I busted a gut when she popped up in the "Past Lives Pavilion" from Albert Brooks' Defending Your Life.
...And there is a great deal to say. She is however, one of the greatest actresses of all time, and always likable on camera, even when portraying largely unsympathetic characters.
I must confess that this acceptance speech was a contributing inspiration for the one I gave at my daughters wedding. Begin and end with humor, color it with contemplative spirituality and philosophical truths, and generously acknowledge others in a loving way. Thank you Shirley, and you can now count 3 daughters, including mine.
Shirley MacLaine's character in "Terms of Endearment" was eccentric, with any number of unpredictable characteristics and foibles that had to be played convincingly. Her role as Aurora was much more of a challenge than Debra Winger's role as Emma. I would imagine that Shirley's brief moment with Debra as she headed to the podium to accept her Oscar was one in which she graciously acknowledged how close the vote between them must have been. I was surprised to recall that this was Shirley MacLaine's only Oscar for Best Actress. She certainly deserved one earlier on, particularly for her performance in "The Apartment".
Shirley tells the truth here. There is no difference between success and what you feel in your heart that you must do. I understand this now. THANK YOU Shirley! You've helped my life more than you can ever know.
She was so good at her role in "Terms of Endearment" that she was able to pull off one of the hardest things in the Academy Awards: winning an oscar while competing with a nominee from the same movie who deserved it also.
Both performances were wonderful. Even though I wasn't a fan of hers beforehand, Shirley's performance was so earnest I thought for a solid two hours that she was my actual mother. Not only did I think that Debra was beautiful but this was the first performance of hers that I had ever seen, and her performance was so adorable that she melted my heart and made me fall in love with her (I often joke that she probably has a 3D printed copy of Shirley's Oscar at home).

I love her sense of humor. "Thank you for terminating this" " I am not gonna thank everybody I met my entire life" :DDDD I love Shirley❤
You, Shirley MacLaine and Jack Lemmon both deserved to have Oscars in the wonderful story of "The Apartment". You had to wait a little but yes you deserved it for TOE! It was the first videotape I rented from the local store some years after the theatrical release and was touched. Carry on entertaining us please.
Shirley Maclaine's performance, without fail, brings me to tears. Some say 'Terms of Endearment' has not aged well, and I say they're crazy. James L. Brooks understands the human condition better than most directors.
Shirley Maclaine’s candidness and body language clearly reminds me of Olivia Colman’s oscar acceptance speech; both were funny and animated but at the same time, truthful with what was in their minds.💐
it's amazing to notice how much jack influences his co-actresses. All the 3 oscars he won, the co-actresses have won too....jack-louis Fletcher jack-shirley, jack-helen hunt.....this guy is one of a kind....
I still admire the words in the speech she used. I saw this ceremony in 1984 and many thanks to youtube that i could listen those words after 26 years.
She's genuinely funny and moving. This is simply the most striking acceptance speech I've ever heard. Shirley's a true talent and quite a beauty. Anyone who's seen her in The Apartment can not even begin to disagree. I mean, seriously, where are women like that these days?
Being good is not the same as being nice, Shirley Maclaine moved me in this movie and I think made the movie, she if anyone 'deserved' an oscar or in this case the oscar. Whether you think her a good or bad mother or her daughter a good or bad daughter is a bit beside the point. It is not a morality contest.
I have always enjoyed Shirley MacLaine's work on screen, but I still think Debra Winger deserved this Oscar more for having such a transformative performance in this movie. Really sorry she stopped working so many years ago, she was a real favorite of mine when I was growing up.
What wonderful performances this year! I knew about the outstanding performances from both Debra Winger and Shirley MacLaine in Terms of Endearment (Shirley MacLaine so deserved the Oscar), but I forgot that Silkwood came out at about this time, too! Meryl Streep was also amazing in her performance (as always)!
Seeing Shirley with her daughter makes me glad that no matter the problems between them, they will always have this great memory of Shirley winning Best Actress for her role as a mother in a mother-daughter movie, and her real daughter was her Oscar date. When Shirley moves on, this clip will be the one we'll see over and over again, for sure.
I was 22 when this movie came out. When I get a little down about the relentless passing of time, I see something like this and am so glad I grew up in a time of quality film making and quality music.
She is the best most beautiful giving and insightful person and a truly gifted actress ... She is insight inspiration grace truth and beauty She is truly a gift as a person Much luv Shirley i will be contacting to you later XoxoxoX
Shirley was amazing in this role - the scene when she screams at the hospital staff when her daughter needed the pain shot was just brilliant - how a real mother would react and the scenes with hunky irresistable Jack Nicholson. I can't believe I only just watched this fantastic movie.It is in my top 5 all time favourite list. A wonderfull film xxxxxx
I think that she should've gotten a Best Supporting Actress Oscar nomination for Steel Magnolias. I think she was nominated for a British Academy Award for it.
I loved her speech ! It was just wonderful with all her usual sense of humor and it showed how smart and wise she is as an actress and a human being. Yes,she deserved it for making so many great movies all her life. She is a real entertainer !
They didn't have to sell so much advertising back then they actually let the artist speak they gave them the time to say their opinions clearly whether you loved or hated them it was all pure back then now it SUCKS!
She was certainly ahead of her time talking about manifesting in the 80's. And ending with "I deserve this" was brilliant. Yes she did.
Oh grow up you. Manifesting is a LIE, PR bubble of nothingness, big wordsalad that is sold at industrial scale to naive fools like you.

She was 50 at the time and that was her last nomination. Today she's 84 and still making good films.

she should have had an Oscar long before this one. The Appartment...

She won the award when she was 49/50 I think ?
the oscar ceremony that year was notoriously over 3 hours long so this phrase is not only amazing and legendary, but also _very_ clever, and witty😂😂
I have to comment again on her win, it is one of the most deserving wins, and best speeches of all time.

I love Shirley!! She is one of the greatest actresses! She was also wonderful in Steel Magnolias!
I think that she should've gotten a Best Supporting Actress Oscar nomination for Steel Magnolias. I think she was nominated for a British Academy Award for it.
I loved her speech ! It was just wonderful with all her usual sense of humor and it showed how smart and wise she is as an actress and a human being. Yes,she deserved it for making so many great movies all her life. She is a real entertainer !
They didn't have to sell so much advertising back then they actually let the artist speak they gave them the time to say their opinions clearly whether you loved or hated them it was all pure back then now it SUCKS!
She is amazing I LOVE ver since I Saw ver at beggining of the 60s...
One of the greatest ever Oscar speeches ❤❤🔥🔥🤗🤗
Omg Legends on the stage :Rock Hudson, Liza Minnelli & Shirley McLaine ❤
Shirley has always a sweet smile. Such a beautiful women :)
It´s so absolutely true. She really deserve it. Already years ago for 'Irma La Douce'. What a wonderful lady.
