- Gene Kelly and Ray Bolger present the Oscar for Music (Original Score) to Bill Conti for The Right Stuff, and Neil Diamond presents the Oscar for Music (Original Song Score or Adaptation Score) to Michel Legrand, Alan Bergman and Marilyn Bergman for Yentl, at the 56th Academy Awards. Hosted by Johnny Carson.
YENTL has an absolutely breathtaking score. A great backdrop for a masterpiece of a film. Streisand should have won for Best Director that year. Apart from being such a beautiful film, it was the first major production by a woman. Nonetheless, the film still stands the test of time.
Yentl is a piece of garbage. Isaac Bashevis Singer was absolutely appalled at what Streisand did to his work
2021 this is truly a great movie, so I hope it will be release in theaters in my country!
EF Barbra
you've been Yentled!
All of the Best Original Score Nominees of 1983 have won at least 1 Oscar:
Bill Conti: The Right Stuff
Michael Gore: Fame
Jerry Goldsmith: The Omen
John Williams: Fiddler on the Roof, Jaws, Star Wars, E.T. the Extra Terrestrial, and Schindler's List
I am so glad I saw this, the Bergmans and Michel Legrand winning for Yentl, what a great score and movie!!!
They are the best!
I guess we know why Barbra did not attend the Oscars that year & who could possibly blame her? (She'd been snubbed in the Directors category for her first foray into directing a major film). But there's a back story. Miss Streisand had caused a great uproar in the Hollywood community when she arrived( in her twenties) to star in William Wylers' film Funny Girl. Although she went on to win the oscar for her performance, the Hollywood community never forgave or got over the meteoric rise to superstardom & the reputation (deserved or not) for being aggressive, pushy, aloof, demanding, narcissistic etc. And they developed a bias and a preconception about her that they have NEVER to this day been able to let go of. This is why Barbra has been "punished" for the crime of audacity from the very beginning. It's also the reason why they can't give her the recognition she so richly deserves.
This is baloney, I’m lucky enough to consider Barbra as both a friend and a mentor. Though I must admit I’ve never actually met her, she has always been incredibly generous with her time.
@@senecaknowledge2274 As I said- these supposed characteristics of Barbra were "rumours & gossip" ,& not supported by facts nevertheless these were the circumstances. The proof of what I'm saying is the unenthusiastic reception she receives whenever she presents an Oscar. She was & remains a somewhat controversial figure. Ditto the snub for Yentl. Another example. No director nomination. Be realistic.
@@peterdavino4408 I meant the way they didn’t recognise Barbra’s talent is baloney
She didn't attend because she's a rude bitch.
@@peterdavino4408 She wasn't nominated as Best Director in the movie The Prince of tides as well, even it got 7 nomination for the film, that su&KS!
Alan Bergman
Marilyn Bergman
Michel Legrand
Three genius, three legends.
And working with Streisand, the genius, the legend, the one, the greatest of all, in "Yentl", her Masterpiece.
They don make 'em like that anymore...
Well, Bill Conti finally got an Oscar for scoring The Right Stuff in 1984. So god bless you, Bill.
Neil Diamond presented the evergreen Oscar to Barbra, and now Yentl to her collaborators.
The one Oscar surprise (though Gene knew) is my favorite.
Babs and ET's dad attended the YENTEL premiere in Hollywood at that Cinerama dome theater. Steven was snuck in through a side entrance. The relationship was brief.
ET's dad! HAHAHA :D
I like that Steven S was in her concert 1993. What a supportive friend!
I was at the Yentl Premiere at the Cinerama Dome in Hollywood! Went with my Sister! Got a couple of pictures of Barbra, ( not with), my sister got a picture with Jon Peters and Gregory Peck! Had dinner under big White tents. Think it was Lamb Chops, couldn’t eat them. Memories!
Nice to see a fellow paisan win! Well deserved Maestro! Bravo!
Rest In Peace Marilyn.
I think 'Under Fire' was the best score that year, but I won't argue with Bill Conti winning, because his work (in only a month and with contradictory instructions from Kaufman and the producers) was highly effective in the film. Williams 'Jedi' is not up to his work on 'Empire', although it's obviously still a terrific score.
The Right Stuff and Yentl has great music score.
Holst+Tchaikovsky.
For many years I thought "The Right Stuff" was a poor choice for the Original Score that year because of the overuse of existing material. But, it's grown on me and the original music he wrote is pretty good. (Not as good as any minute of music in "Return of the Jedi")
Or the music of Under Fire by Jerry Goldsmith
I would have voted indeed for Jerry Goldsmith's UNDER FIRE. Conti used a lot of his music from THE WHITE DAWN in RIGHT STUFF. They disqualified Nino Rota for doing that in THE GODFATHER and thus it wasn't eligible in 1972.
"Yentl" was (to me) a GREAT film. I went to see it when it come out at the Cinerama Dome because of Amy Irving yet came away thinking EVERYONE'S performance was great. Bought the soundtrack at once.
I liked the movie well enough (key word: liked) - but the score was another story. A reviewer in Time magazine wrote, "It is the most romantic, coherent and sophisticated original movie score since Gigi a quarter century ago." Forty years on, I think that statement still stands. It's a perfect storm of musical, lyrical and vocal excellence.
Carson was on fire that year - it’s really the template for all Oscar hosts since.
Bill conti...should have won for Rocky !!!
Yentl was a pleasant surprise! :D
"Would someone please vacuum this stage RIGHT NOW?!!!?" 2:23
3:01 THE RIGHT STUFF THEME!!!!
The Bergman’s were true blue. Their friendship expanded beyond music.
Best director...Barbra Streisand for Yentl!
The best original score of the year (in my opinion) was "Under fire" by Jerry Goldsmith
i have mixed views about a lot of Alan and Marilyn Bergman's lyrics, but I think they did a incredible job of Yentl. It was a stellar effort by Legrand as well, who already had a formidable reputation with the superb musicals Les Parapluies de Cherbourg and Demimoselles de Rochefort. The movie was a success - and that was surely down to Streisand; but I don't think the music and songs are as well known as they should be. It was an extraordinary work. A labour of love as Marilyn said, but apparently labour being the operative word. In reality it seemed to have exhausted Legrand and we never really heard much of him after Yentl.
All of the Best Song or Adaptation Score Nominees of 1983 except for Lalo Schifrin have won at least 1 Oscar:
Alan Bergman: The Thomas Crown Affair, The Way We Were, and Yentl
Marilyn Bergman: The Thomas Crown Affair, The Way We Were, and Yentl
Michel Legrand: The Thomas Crown Affair, Summer of '42, and Yentl
Elmer Bernstein: Thoroughly Modern Millie
Schifrin was voted an honorary Academy Award for career excellence in 2018.
@@jakeemreynolds5095 What a wonderful world this would be!
Amazing Steven Spielberg and Amy Irving at this Oscar ceremony when he use to date Barbra Streisand around the time of Yentel's film release.
Shut the front door!?!?! Where did you hear that Spielberg once dated Babs?
LMAO
not true. Barbra invited him to see a rough cut and his only comment was "don't change a frame." Get your facts straight.
No, Babs was just about at the end of her relationship with Jon Peters.
Nope Never dated
Barbra deserved an Oscar for best director
That's unfair you should be ashamed for not nominated her
She did win the Golden Globe for best director for "Yentl".
Agree!
Bill Conti wins, essentially, for Holst's The Planets and the Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto. It's mostly not his fault, as the director demanded music as close as possible to his temp tracks. But it should never even have been nominated.
I’m fine with The Right Stuff winning Best Score. Return of the Jedi’s score, while good (except for Yub Nub), it wasn’t John Williams’ best score he did for the series. The scores for the original Star Wars, The Empire Strikes Back, and even the Prequel Trilogy are still his best scores he did for the Saga.
Though it should have been awarded to Under Fire by Jerry Goldsmith. Quentin Tarantino even used the end credits called "Nicaragua" for his film Django Unchained.
A friend of mine wrote the screenplay for under fire. His name is clay frohman
Michelle LeGrand was all ready a legend by this time.
Trading Places was robbed! that was a great score and movie
NO, IT WAS NOT! YENTL IS ONE OF THE BEST SCORES IN THE HISTORY OF MOTION PICTURES!
Jerry Goldsmith should've won
Yeah, he should be.
This was so wrong. Jerry Goldsmith should have won. Under Fire is one of his best scores.
He finished scoring these projects along with Psycho II and Twilight Zone: The Movie as well as Joe Dante's Gremlins and Michael Crichton's Runaway for the fall of 1984.
I thought Bill Conti was William Fichtner!
Oh, grow up!
Where was she?...
Return of the Jedi and Under Fire > The Right Stuff.
oh please--grow up
@@fasteddie9867 That's the only slogan which most people should learn to deal with somehow. Please, Grow Up.
