- Gary Cooper winning the Oscar® for Best Actor for his performance in "High Noon" at the 25th Academy Awards® in 1953. Presented by Janet Gaynor and accepted by John Wayne.
“Whatever happened to Gary Cooper, the strong silent type.”
He was gay Garry Copaaa??
@@antiteroristickejedinicepo4830 that's insane, Coop loved the ladies, well documented
Cooper died of cancer
@@tomgrosemusic Jeez relax It's a joke from the Sopranos show HBO.
@@antiteroristickejedinicepo4830 I'm relaxed. Never saw the show. Responding to comments at face value is normal Internet etiquette. Expecting people to recognize arcane references isn't.
When the Oscars were watchable. These great actors had class that is rare today. Love the Duke, Love Coop!!
Back then: grace and class. Now? Untalented vulgar hacks.
cooper put in an incredible performance in high noon; a very human story of heart-breaking rejection and imagined helplessness. i wish he had been there for the award
'imagined?' He had no one to fight three killers with him except the town drunk.
@@steveconn Four killers.
@@steveconn I love Gary Cooper and I really like High Noon BUT I have to agree with both John Wayne and Howard Hawks, I do think it was quite pathetic as a sheriff to go around asking everyone for help, a good sheriff doesn't do this, so I think Rio Bravo was much better in my opinion.
John Wayne wouldn’t have been right for High Noon. Will Kane was a marshal at the end of his career, vulnerable and human. John Wayne’s persona would not match that role
Gary Cooper and John Wayne are the two best western film actors.
These actors make present-day Hollywood look very small.
Best comment
you're being nostalgic
such a good way to put it
Very, very, very small!
@@ta724 I didn't see anyone get slapped
I Iove "High Noon " the best Western of all time and i love Gary Cooper !
Even the opening scene in High Noon was so brilliantly done .
Made even better with Tex Ritter singing his voice is amazing.
I love John Wayne's voice
Who doesn't?

I love everything about John Wayne ❤
Love high noon cooper was so good.
HE WAS FANTASTIC. LOVE THAT MAN!
Coop and John Wayne,two awesome men.
Gary Cooper nailed the role!
Gary Cooper, now that's a true American.
Gary Cooper richly deserved this Oscar. Bravo!!!
true ;D
Walter Solley I don't gives a hoot's eyebrow what Wayne said, that right wing coward. High Noon will always be a # 1 movie in the annals of time!! REMEMBER, ole Wayne took the chicken way out out in WWll when most of the actors enlisted! Never forgot that about him! So, he ain't got no room to talk calling a movie too weak.
None of the actors of the period felt that way about Wayne. They knew it ate at Wayne that he was labeled 4F was disqualified from serving.
@@artm1973 Don't try to convince a Leftist about what is truth. Their indoctrination into Marxism will not allow the truth into their minds.
@@artm1973 The are 4Fs and then 4Fs
Duke was always good at these types of speeches.
Just listen to the names of the nominees. Absolutely awesome.
I'm a total sap for the class and nostalgia
Gary Cooper the Best!
Gary Cooper a man amongst men
And proved it by repeatedly scoring with Grace Kelly throughout the filming of the movie.
Strong silent type.
Handsome humble talented , coop had it all🇺🇸❤️
You said it...ADORE HIM
Brando, Gary Cooper, John Wayne, Kirk Douglas, Jose Ferrer, Alec Guiness. Can this time ever be beaten for glamour?
+Jim Beam Never. It is a time gone by. Sigh.....
+Mikey Trahant Real men back then. We're all so Left-feminist-minority-politically correct now... z z z z z
No,today's actors just do not
have their
You forgot to mention Henry Fonda, Robert Mitchum, and Jimmy Stewart
They made movies then and had stars then.
Super Duper, Cooper. Especially loved him in "Meet John Doe" and "Ball of Fire"; he played so well against Barbara Stanwyck. Couldn't imagine either film without either lead.
High Noon - it don't get much better than this! What a film! Gary Cooper perfectly cast. Great acceptance speech from John Wayne on Gary's behalf. Fred Zinneman was a genius!
I cannot picture anyone else playing in High Noon but Gary Cooper, not even John Wayne. Cooper embodied the part.
Mr. Wayne was obviously telling a joke.
@@celebrim1Mr. Wayne refused the role.
It is interesting that in the movie High Noon, Gary Cooper and the guy who played Frank Miller were both from the same town in Montana.
the strong silent type

"He was gay, Gary Cooper?"
There's quite a bit of irony in John Wayne's acceptance for Gary Cooper.
John Wayne called High Noon "the most un-American" thing he'd ever read. I think it's hilarious that he went up there and accepted the Oscar for Mr. Cooper.
Please note, while I have not always agreed with Mr. Wayne's politics I have always liked his films and been a fan since I can remember. Additionally, Gary Cooper was a serious right winger, too. As with John Wayne, though, I've been a fan of Gary Cooper since a child. My maternal grandmother came from the reservation in Montana and became a Gary Cooper fan back in the silent film days. When she would babysit me, we would watch his movies together, and during commercial breaks, she told me about tipi life back in the old days.
Aside from my Cherokee grandfather, she thought Gary Cooper was the best looking man she'd ever seen. As a bonus, she thought he rode a horse better than any white man. Ever! She was a hoot.
Good comments sir! And funny!
John Wayne could have never played this role, it is PURE Cooper, more than any other film Cooper made.
Wayne criticized High Noon and its message in particular. Wayne was an idealist. In his movies, crisis always brings out the best in people. The complete opposite of what happened during High Noon.
@@VaniFoxOfficial High Noon was in a town in which the old west was dying out and bankers, railroads and civilization had arrived. Itwas no longer the sort of pioneer town that Wayne idealized. I think this film actually makes Wayne's argument for him,.
@@VaniFoxOfficial Nicely put! Plus: Wayne never went around asking others for help.
Nevertheless High Noon is one of the best Westerns and Cooper did a tremendous job.
john Wayne & Gary cooper, both we're 'real' men, rest in peace!
John Wayne claimed that High Noon was the most unamerican film he’d ever seen. He also named names during the red scare. To hell with him.
@@jonathancadle1261
Do some real research
@Gary Choopper
Jokes on you!!
Toni Anderson
Perhaps do some research yourself. Both of his claims are true, so what are you talking about?
@@jonathancadle1261 Absolutely right but Cooper also did testified against them .
The irony of irony is though the script was written with a black listed who used a different name .
Garry Cooper was the finest of western actor's, and finest of men.
high noon was not exactly a western. zínnemann said that :)
.......and the star wasn't exactly called Garry.
Big right-winger, not so great man.
steve conn feel better now?
@@steveconn Not sure what you mean by "big right-winger." Cooper was a Republican, but being a Republican back then was very different from being a Republican now. For example, he was close friends with Ernest Hemingway, who was very liberal. In fact, Cooper was in favor of New Deal policies during the FDR era, but Hemingway wasn't. Also, considering that Cooper was called to testify before the HUAC in 1947 and that he had actually visited Moscow and didn't like what he saw there, it was understandable that he was "not sympathetic to communism," as he testified. Still, he did not name a single name and had no problem working on High Noon or with people who had been accused of being communists.
Wonderful superb great stars actors both my favorite. John Wayne. Gary Cooper legends John Wayne accepted award for Gary Cooper
Gary Cooper Excellent.
The irony of Wayne's speech is that he turned down the role in High Noon, as he believed the screenplay was "un-American"!
Very true. If the Duke had the chance again he would most likely turn the role down again. Movies are more than entertainment. They send a message either directly or indirectly. John Wayne perceived that in this picture.
@@jameswood231 I agree 100 % in High Noon Cooper had to crawl and beg.....somehow I don't think The Duke would have enjoyed such a performance......
Man You can"t compare the legendary Gary Cooper to your freaking Duke ...When Gary Cooper used to be the most famous highest payed star in Hollywood in the 30's Your Duke was unknown at the time ..
@@djamelbouch3670 read again what I said....I did not compare Wayne to Cooper....
And he joked about not getting the role in this speech. What an "actor".
John Wayne accepting the Best Actor Award on behalf of the absent Gary Cooper. Two fabulous actors. Wayne should have received the Oscar for his lead role in "The Searchers" in 1956, but in one of the most bizarre snubs in Academy history, neither the picture nor Wayne was nominated. The movie is widely recognized as one of the greatest films ever made, and arguably the best western ever filmed. Instead, "Around the World in 80 Days," one of the lamest, most forgettable movies to ever win Best Picture, won the Oscar. Wayne would finally win an Oscar for his role in "True Grit" in 1969.
Does anybody know, why Gary Cooper was absent?
I couldn;t agree more about Wayne and "The Searchers." And hell, I'm a political liberal! But both Duke and the film were outstanding. Wayne's Ethan is the kind of racist to make your blood boil, but when he saves Natalie Wood, who he wanted to shoot because she "became" an Indian, and then says, Let's go home, Debbie," his soul is redeemed.
Wayne should’ve gotten one for rio bravo. True grit wasn’t even a great movie. They gave him the award for that because he was passed up on so many other actually good movies.
He did the quiet man in 53 and it won best picture that next year but Wayne wasn't even nominated.
@@midassnap9028 "The Quiet Mn" was nominated for Best Picture for the 1952 year, but it did not win the prize, which went instead to one of the worst Best Picture winners of all time, "The Greatest Show on Earth."
❤😍gARY cOOPER
I love Gary Cooper in Mr. Deeds Goes To Town. He was nominated for an Oscar for that film but didn’t win.
In Sergeant York too you know the moral theme. He was just fantastic in those roles.
He won the oscar for Sergeant York.
When Hollywood stars were stars
John Wayne deserved an Oscar for "The Searchers".
' the searchers ' was a dark and disturbing movie , but John Wayne was so stupid , he probably never had a clue - although he was fine as an actor , when someone with smarts , was pulling the strings !
X X John Wayne knew exactly what he was doing. You, on the other hand, sound very stupid.
Really no
@@rgrndu , which proves how dumb you are !
More deserving than you.....High Noon would never be the great movie it was with you in the part....."COOP" was the best!!!
I love John Wayne he gave me direction in life
Memorable for many reasons. A worthy win! ♥
I love John Wayne and Gary Cooper
I just love Janet Gaynor's wonderful voice
Coop’s parents were well off Brits, and they sent him to school in Bedfordshire for a while, in Houghton Regis, but he had been born in the USA. He was a true grit American with true Brit lineage. Of course he preferred Montana....
If only they gave out Oscars for best speech!!
High Noon and Shane were the best Westerns ever made
OK ! Les deux meilleurs premiers westerns de mon adolescence. (Vus en 1952 et 1953) J'en rêve encore à près de 83 ans...Merci de me faire revivre ces souvenirs enfuis !..
Shane is meh.
Less than 2 minutes from the reading of the nominees to the end of the speech yet plenty of heart sincerity and a good laugh.
this was when Hollywood had class.
A fantastic role he had in this amazing film
Have watched High Moon 9 times and enjoyed every time.Gary Cooper is my favorite actor of all times
Hello Teresa
High moon 😂
Is anybody in showbiz this genuine anymore? Sincere? Gracious? What has Hollywood lost over the years?
Daniel Day-Lewis is all those things. There are others. Lots of fakes out there but there are still some real decent folks who work in Hollywood.
hey Ex...... pornography, food chemicals, stress, money pressure and atheism are doing their job. From 1953 to this day, 61 years have passed, c'mon.
Post facto is being ironic right? Because if not, he doesn't know his history at all. Wayne called High Noon un-american and saw the writer blacklisted, and yet here he makes a comment about how he wishes he was in it! You don't get more two-faced than that. Wayne was a fine actor in certain films but an awful human being if you research what he stood for. And also i'm assuming by Peter Pan's comment, whose living up to his user name with that infantile generalization, we are in a creepy right-wing section of youtube where knowledge is secondary to the false comfort of fake macho icons and a benign god that makes you feel very special indeed.
Edward Till You're just stupid.
Good point ya got me.
A golden age indeed, when women looked beautiful, nothing else…..just beautiful, leaving so much to the imagination.
My role model!
@Caroline Woodward Wayne's children adored him
Wonderful Duke and Coop.
John Wayne had a sense of humor.That, also, made him a further giant in my book. 2020 Oklahoma girl
John Wayne's frankness was gold!
Brando, Cooper, Kirk Douglas, Jose Ferrer, Alec Guinness, and Wayne accepting for Cooper. Todays so called "actors" and even going back say 25 years, cant compare to these talented people. Look at how well dressed these people are. Tuxedos, gowns, not the freak show we have nowadays.
Great patriat the old actors. Shame the country and people got weak
Unbelievable. Could image if cooper and Wayne ever did a movie together? I wonder who would win the gun fight?
Hearing John Wayne say "Coop and I" alone made it worth to come here! 😄
Gary Cooper was the real American hero (:
This is priceless.
Janet Gaynor was an absolute adorable treasure
Gary Cooper. Marlon Brando. Alec Gennis. John Wayne. High Noon with Grace Kelly. .....
The Nominees were Marlon Brando, Gary Cooper, John Wayne, Kirk Douglas, Jose Ferrer, Alec Guiness all legends And to top it off John Wayne and Bob Hope were on stage.
Nowadays you have 5 Schmucks nominated and you never heard of any of them nor do you care.
Not to mention they use the podium to virtue signal, talking at you about equity, lbgtq, BLM, blah blah blah. That's why I stopped watching the Oscars years ago.
John Wayne: BOSS. He was always great when he picked up Oscars for his colleagues, and even though he wasn't really deserving of his own Oscar win for "True Grit," he was still very humble and gracious. I like to think his Oscar was for "The Searchers."
I feel sorry for those who never saw a b and w film Cooper or Wayne Walter brenan etc when men were men
So deserved!
Now THAT...was an American. The strong, silent type.
Anna M. -- THANK YOU for letting me know the clip of Jimmy Stewart accepting the Oscar for the dying Cooper was up at You Tube.
What films to choose from. An abundance of riches.
Gary Cooper- so most playing the best of man's qualities... "How noble and excellent is man if he only attain to that state for which he was designed. And how mean and contemptible if he close his eyes to the public weal and spend his precious capacities on personal and selfish ends." ~ ‘Abdu’l-Baha, Baha'i Faith Writings
Brilliant john Wayne!! They don’t make em like that anymore !
High Noon was Lee van Cleef's movie debut Sheb Woolley had a novelty hit called "One Eyed One Horn Purple People Eater" and later appeared with Wayne in The War Wagon (1967)
‘Get off ya horse and drink ya milk ‘ 😂
I was born 1999. I learn him by tony soprano (the sopranos). What a big tv series. Yeah ı dont know english 🙏
They were all winners back than.
The first televised Best Leading Actor :)
And 17 years later John Wayne would do the same walk onto the stage..but this time to pick up his own Oscar 😉
Hey, can you help me to understand a thing?
Why Wayne recived the award insted Cooper himself?
@@aliochakaramazov8063 I have heard different explanations and stories to why Cooper didn´t pick up the Oscar himself. I think the most plausible explanation is that Cooper was filming another movie in Mexico and was ill. So, John Wayne accepted the award for him.
Bryan Awkwardson Really thanks! I couldn't find this information anywhere, which led me to think of some political reason.
For a mediocre movie. He was at death's door, they thought they should give him ' something'. Coward that he was.
Ruby Coward? based on what do you say that? the film is a work of art and I understand that you may not like it, but I cannot understand rude comments like yours, except for a political or ideological reason.
t's all true friends... Gary Cooper was a fantastic actor but i think that the Duke in " Red River", " Fort Apache", " She wore a yellow ribbon"," The searchers" and " El Dorado" also did fantastic performances in old west movies...
Gary Cooper deserved many Oscars, he was the best leading man of his day and still there is no one around except, maybe Mr. Daniel Day Lewis.
Lori , Gary Cooper wasn't dying of cancer in 1953 . He didn't die until 1960 at age 60 .
I lived in a town with one not too well running cinema. So age and limits didn’t matter. I was 12 and daw the movie and fell for GK instantly. sometime I saw Casablanca, didn’t get a thing exept the nightclub, and thought I would never enter such a place,at 13yrs.
A very good actor! A real man!
A real man who's real name was Marion Morrison, who also wore a great toupee!
DDumbrille
You can always tell when the jealous and class challenged show up.
Harry Estes Your original post was wittier.
Newsflash: John Wayne was a racist, uneducated man, who believed in white supremacy, and had the stupidity to actually say " I don't feel we did wrong in taking this great country away from [the Native Americans] ... Our so-called stealing of this country from them was just a matter of survival. There were great numbers of people who needed new land, and the Indians were selfishly trying to keep it for themselves."
Yup, that's classy.
Gene Kelly should have been nominated. He performed one of the most iconic dance numbers of all times in movies with the title song.
Hello Laura
John Wayne didn't hate High Noon because of it's leftism, it was because of it's pessimism. He just couldn't believe a whole town would ditch it's sheriff because they were afraid. People would defended him, and they would've stood together besides him.
He and Howard Hawks made Rio Bravo based on that idea. I think both films are masterpieces.
Coming from a country tow i belive it. Courage and words at the pub are easy till you have tonstand your ground against something real.
Wayne ditched his 'friends' during the McCarthy hearing. Should have looked closer.
@@steveconn Different time and communism was a threat.
Un très bel hommage pour Gary
Actually Wayne knew why he could not find a screenwriter as good as the one who wrote HN, as he had that very one banned from Hollywood.
I never knew that "The Lavender Hill Mob" was an Oscar nominated film.
No color tv. Legendary
Kirk Douglas is still kicking.....just turned 103
It's well know that John Wayne didn't appreciate at all "High Noon". The last scene, the star in the dust was a punch to the gut for his patriotism and, most of all, Wayne was convinced that a sheriff must not ask for help to the people, he had to work alone. In response to this, in 1959 played in Howard Hawks's Rio Bravo where the situation was reversed. People offered to help him but he declined.
I think his point was more the fact that people DID offer him help, not so much about whether he accepted it or not. He wanted the frontier people to be portrayed as sticking together and uniting against a common enemy no matter what.

high noon was a commentary on REAL LIFE.. sheriffs do quit.. most people WONT help.. just look at gunsmoke .. the town never helped in 30 years and 300 episodes.. john wayne portrayed idealism.. high noon was realism.. get over it.. gary cooper was 10x times the man wayne was
mathias... they didnt stick together.. thats the facts of history forever
Cooper was a far better actor than Wayne ever was. The John Bircher actually turned down "High Noon" !
John Wayne was an admitted socialist while in college at USC. He saw the fraud in leftism and changed his views.
he wasnt being sarcastic .. he was being funny.. even tho he hated the premise of high noon.. he joked that he was mad that he wasnt given the part
Sencillamente son los dos gigantes del celuloide son los mejores en el western sin ninguna duda pero sinceramente gary esta un escalón por encimas pero repito dos puntales con un grandioso legado en la tierra y mucho talento para el cielo dos amigos hasta el final y solo para los mejores cinéfilos del mundo te lo dice juezdeloeste 💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩
Just splendid!
I like his dedication.
I love John Wayne in I miss him badly.
Wonderful speech by John Wayne and Cooper deserved this Oscar. Eventhough Brando is brilliant in Viva Zapata. Wayne had four small children when the war started. He also had just started to make any money in pictures when the war started. He wanted to make sure his family was financially secure before he got drafted. He was also 34 years old. Republic Pictures did everything they could to prevent him from going into the army including threatening legal action.
Wayne wanted to go in the navy his friend john ford was a lt. commander in the navy said ok I can get you in bad shoulder and all but the duke wanted to be made an officer right away ford said you got to take basic training first duke said no
Lots of men far poorer than Duke with as many or more responsibilities and dependents enlisted, let alone were drafted and fought for us, many losing their lives. Duke sought a deferment and got it when many other men sacrificed all to join up.
I agree. I am not sure of the timing, but my grandfather was going to enlist. However, at some point the US stopped drafting fathers with 2 or more children, such as Wayne. I do not know the dates or if this applied to him.
Fathers were indeed given special consideration during Word War 2. I think though that the process of enlistment would have been different from being drafted.
For example, in the early part of the war in 1942 a father could obtain a deferment as Duke did. That would be enough to keep a man out of the war. But by '43 when there was a man power shortage, the deferments could be nullified once all eligible men who weren't fathers were taken. So, in effect it became more likley that some Dad's could get drafted as the war progressed.
Your Grandfather might have had even more special circumstances when he tried to enlist. If it was early on the war, he might have been too old, if he was over 38. Or later I think they raised it to 42. He also might have tried enlisting in a very specific branch like the marines where they might not have accepted a man of his years or condition. He also could have been working in any number of professions that were deemed necessary and too important for the war effort or the stability of the home front.
As far as Wayne was concerned though, he could have given up his deferment just as Henry Fonda did and other actors and Fathers.
Whatever happened with your Grandfather at least he made the effort to serve.
For me the problem I had with Duke wasn't that he didn't serve, it was that he didn't serve and yet became such a radical advocate for others to serve. To me he was a chicken hawk not unlike recent VP Cheney who sought multiple deferments during the Vietnam War while still supporting the war and others to do his fighting for him.
Thanks for your feedback and information. It'd be worth researching the specifics of your Grandfather's efforts. Family history is so meaningful and worth passing on.
Totally agreed about Brando! as Zapata was his most underrated performance
Um tapa de luva em John Wayne !! pois era um ferrenho crítico do Filme de Zineman!!!!
"It was a very good year".
1952: It would take Wayne another 17 years to get his Oscar. Truth was, Cooper was still getting over the personal and professional damage inflicted by his affair with Patricia Neal, and wasn't welcome in some quarters. Paramount would not release "High Noon"; United Artists did. Cooper was considered 'washed up' in some quarters, but Stanley Kramer knew what he wanted, and Cooper delivered, surrounded by great character actors and a young Grace Kelly.
I think I prefer this understated style of just reading the nominees names instead of the clips they show along with them these days. It gets on with it.
Renee N. It is a television program that last a certain amount of time. They have clips to fill the time,.
