A well-deserved Oscar for “Marty”. 70+ years later, it’s still a wonderful movie. I loved seeing how elegantly everyone was dressed, too. The Academy Awards really were quite the event in those days. I don’t even bother watching them anymore.
Audrey H. is absolutely bewitching here. I could listen to her list nominees all night. And how nice not to have to hear winners thank everybody under the sun. They knew how to get off looking good.
Audry exuded femininity and graciousness. Even the tone of her speaking voice spins a charm. Classiest movie star of the feminine persuasion....along with Leslie Caron. European gold plated elegance.
And the Best Actor Oscar instantly made Earnest Borgnine a big screen legend in the greater public mind, though his talent was widely known by everyone in the industry already. He made only 5000 dollars for the role of Marty, much like Sylvester Stallone took a small amount of money over a very large amount in order to maintain creative control over "Rocky." Said Earnest Borgnine: [on his $5,000 salary for playing the eponymous lead in "Marty", which won him a Best Actor Oscar] ...I would have done it for nothing. Let this be a lesson to your creators out there about what it takes to get to the top. And don't bullshit me that does not matter. Just for social context on the times he lived in and the attitudes that were prevalent, he also said, "I hate hippies and dopeheads. Just hate them. I'm glad we sent the men off to war. They came back with a sense of responsibility and respect. We should have grabbed the women, given them a bath, put a chastity belt on them, and put them in secretary school."

That gorgeous, genuine smile when she announces Marty as the winner! ❤️ And the humblest of best picture speeches ever! Oh, that these days could return.
What an elegantly Patrician tone of presenting the most important award in the Academy Awards...and it is presented by one of the Most Unforgettable Women in the World!
What a great time in the world, Jerry Lewis and Audrey Hepburn we're marvelous and in spite of what people think now, Jerry Lewis was a great man and terrific entertainer and all the years with his Labor day Telethons for over 40 years and his work with Muscular Dystrophy plus everything else, he gets my vote and Respect!!! R.IP. PERIOD!!!!!
So much class and beauty ,she looks like a real cinderella ,im 28 and these classic moments in cinema make me think wtf happened to now,Rest in peace to all the Greats👏💯❤
Man, just a few minutes earlier, Grace Kelly had presented the best actor award in her last Hollywood appearance and now Audrey Hepburn. To watch the Oscars back then was to watch true elegance and class. The degeneration of the Oscars is off the scale from where it once was.
I love watching these times. A whole different world. With classic actresses and actors with class and humor. Marty was a great movie. Glad Ernest won. A far cry from mckales navy. Lol.
I believe it was at this Oscars that someone captured a very intriguing photo of Hollywood's two classy, beautiful young "princesses", Audrey Hepburn and Grace Kelly, chatting backstage. If only they'd done a movie together.
I always wondered how the company of "Hecht-Lancaster" could produce Marty without Burt Lancaster getting an award also. Apparently he wasn't involved in Marty since Harold Hecht was individually named as the producer.
Audrey is obviously stunning and perfect here. There is something about Jerry Lewis too that I've always thought was so attractive when he was out of character.
It bugs me when someone is referred to as a "former Academy Award winner." The award hasn't been rescinded. One is "an Academy Award Winner" or a "previous Academy Award winner." Just a personal pet peeve.
I agree! Once someone wins an academy award, they’re an academy award winner for life, but saying former sounds like the award has been revoked or something, so it makes more sense to say “Academy Award Winner”
They used to do this back in the day. It wasn't until the 70s when movie previews started putting a huge emphasis on "Academy Award Winner ____" that people started referring to the title as an ever present thing rather than something past tense
This is just the coolest thing ever! My favorite actor AND actress!!!!!!! Favorite Lewis movie would be Sailor Beware w/ Dean Martin, and fave Audrey movie would be Roman Holiday.
Jerry Lewis was the BEST of the BEST at comedy. Audrey Hepburn was the most beautiful of them all. Amazing how technology has progressively gotten so much better through the years and people have gotten so much worse.
''Marty'' is amazing! A great movie. Audrey lovely and stunning as always! Academy Channel could you please upload ''Ordinary People'' winning Best Picture? Thank you!
In 1955, I saw every one of the movies that was nominated for the "Best Picture' award! Even though "Marty" was great, it possibly should have been excluded, because it already was a t.v. play, with Rod Steiger in the lead role! Except for 1939, I consider 1955 one of, if not the greatest year in the history of motion pictures! (Also, if I remember, "Marty" was the "second feature"or B movie, which was unusual!)
When Oscar acceptance speeches were short and eloquent and when the show ended so early, Jerry Lewis had to stretch and stretch and stretch. Also shows that Lewis was capable of ad libbing effectively and being humble. It's interesting that they didn't need big production numbers or even scenes from the movies. Why not? Because most people had seen the nominated films and actors. This was the first Oscar broadcast of which I was aware because my mother was rooting for Borgnine and Magnani to win for acting, and had marked her choices in the little boxes in TV Guide, where you checked off your picks. She was still excited the next morning that two actors had won for playing working class people..
Audrey was the cutest actress of all time, with the prettiest smile. No other actress comes close.
Not even Grace Kelly or Elizabeth Taylor?
MarlonBrando Lover
Nope. Not even Grace Kelly or Elizabeth Taylor.
***** I love how she and Elizabeth stepped out of the Hollywood world to help people in need. That's a true angel.
MarlonBrando Lover
That may be so, but I was simply referring to her appearance and manner.
***** I agree. Audrey was Audrey. She was so magical and wonderful without even trying. And what a beauty she was - those eyes!
If I could clone anyone, it would be Audrey. Class & beauty, not to mention kindness & talent.
Her smile after she kisses him omg😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️
Ikr she is just sooo gorgeous and beautiful 😍😚❤
If...you can get a Girl to Laugh 🤔😁👍
Please don't blasphemy God's name.
Everything about this woman was stunning. Out of this world.

She was so damn Beautiful.
True
She's just so stunning and her smile brightens up my whole day
Audrey... a class act. Love the way people enunciate words with such dinigity and clarity. Such a rare talent to find nowadays.

Cool
Good grief, she was beautiful! !!

Michael Plurad she looks so genuinely happy for the winner!
Please don't blasphemy
That gorgeous, genuine smile when she announces Marty as the winner! ❤️ And the humblest of best picture speeches ever! Oh, that these days could return.
I actually got to hold that Oscar and take a picture with it. My former boss is Harold's son and he brought it to the office.
Back when nearly every nominated movie was worth seeing.

Sono nato Nel 1974 e quando ero bambino guardavo i film di Jerry Lewis e Dean Martin insieme a mia nonna e saranno per sempre uno splendido ricordo
These were times when the Oscars meant something and we're well deserved and appreciated💐
Indeed.
Oh, yeah, it's true. Magic times.
Times long gone and that shall never come back unfortunately.
I mean sometimes, you get moments like that Oscars mistake in 2017 or Parasite winning.
OMG! She is sooo adorable! I love her. Wish I was him. I would have said "Uh, you missed! :) "
My, she looks absolutely stunning here. Love you Audrey.
Benny Young Audrey ALWAYS looked stunning.
Linda Shelley Oh I know, you're right. It's just that I think she looks exceptional here.
Amazing beauty and class.

Until tonight MARTY was the last to win the Oscar for best picture and the top prize at the Cannes Film Festival.
Which one has since then?
@@eunahhunter4936 Parasite (2019).
I think I'm in love with this woman
One of Hecht's sons went missing in the 1980s and was the subject of a segment on the tv show Unsolved Mysteries.
The Golden Age of the Academy Awards!
Indeed! The 50's and the 60's were the golden age of Hollywood!
love the Tom & Jerry music

Que saudades!! Dois anjos do cinema que já nos deixaram!!!!!

She so adorableeeee

It must hurt to be that pedantic.
Her accent...😍💫
Audrey has humanitarian & is humble. If it wasn't for Earnest and all that were involved, the writer/producer would be lost, where was his mind?\
This is just the coolest thing ever! My favorite actor AND actress!!!!!!! Favorite Lewis movie would be Sailor Beware w/ Dean Martin, and fave Audrey movie would be Roman Holiday.
Jerry Lewis was the BEST of the BEST at comedy. Audrey Hepburn was the most beautiful of them all. Amazing how technology has progressively gotten so much better through the years and people have gotten so much worse.
omg she is gorgeous!!!!
Well said.
Jerry Lewis has probably never washed that cheek again :D Audrey Hepburn was so incredibly lovely and gorgeous.
💖Audrey💖
True decision, well deserved
Audrey was the beautiful on the world #👑🌹💕
I believe that man with Ms. Colbert is Joseph L Mankewicz , Grandfather of TCM host Josh Mankewicz
class pure class. Unlike today
Yes, today is pure Trump style.
Todays so called stars have no respect..even for themselves...deviants
They way audrey dressed, she didn't looked like she was in the 50s
She was in her fifties?
@@nickivyow4756 no, he means the year 1956 (the 50’s)
life is too short...
this one was 64 years ago 😞😔😔😔😔
Audrey and grace wow to much
love her and her beliefs later in life 😊
Yay!
"Stars" not just celebrities.
Jerry Lewis eta como era lindo
Hermosa historia de una monja
She was a real Lady,look up the word class in the dictionary and it will come up "Audrey Hepburn '
Adorabile Gerry Luis e tenerissima Odry Empurg
Jerry....
''Marty'' is amazing! A great movie. Audrey lovely and stunning as always! Academy Channel could you please upload ''Ordinary People'' winning Best Picture? Thank you!
Jerry Lewis was a lucky man!
Well there were at least two people that night who got the best gift of their lives Harold Hecht and Jerry Lewis.
オードリーの笑顔ってどうしてあんなに魅力的なのだろうか。
Because you’re human
Borgnine was one of those outsize personalities who just dominate. Vital to the last days when he was past 90!
可愛い💖
Princesa Audrey
Audry! You lucky woman !
Thanks for uploading a really deserving best picture win! Please could you upload Patton's win next?
The camera man struggled not to follow Audrey at the start of the Marty acceptance speech lol
Who wouldn't? 😊
In 1955, I saw every one of the movies that was nominated for the "Best Picture' award! Even though
"Marty" was great, it possibly should have been excluded, because it already was a t.v. play, with Rod
Steiger in the lead role! Except for 1939, I consider 1955 one of, if not the greatest year in the history
of motion pictures! (Also, if I remember, "Marty" was the "second feature"or B movie, which was unusual!)

I'm watching Marty now 😅
Lewis is still alive! too bad he dont do Comedy Pictures anymore!!!! ;(
dr strangelove .... Sadly we lost Jerry recently on August 20, 2017
