You may disagree with Oliver Stone's political views, however, in Born On The 4th Of July, he elicited a career best performance from Tom Cruise, and he dramatized the horror of war and the degrading and demoralizing treatment of Vetrans like Kovic, who believed in serving their Country, came home maimed or paralyzed, and were marginalized or treated poorly at hospitals during the Vietnam era. He richly deserved this Oscar.
@Gimmiepig - Are you being sarcastic? Your're really a Right Wing Trump lover. Actually, I would agree with what you are saying, but there are nice way to say things which produces a better response.
@@HoldenNY22 Who the hell is pro-war?
Well said. I agree, it was very powerfull story.
For those disagreeing with Oliver Stone’s political views, they are factually wrong and on the wrong side of history. Stone’s criticisms of the illegal Vietnam war crimes are legitimate.
What happenned to the Comment by Givveepig
Getting the award from your old mentor is always amazing. Well done!
Yes, Stone was in Scorcese's film class.
Hassaan Mirza and before your mentor
Fun fact: Martin Scorsese was Stones teacher on university.
At New York University's Tisch School of the Arts more precisely.
and also Martin once praised Oliver in front of his class for his homework(short film) telling everybody about Stone ''... that's a filmmaker!'' Many times Oliver Sone in his interviews repeats this story with pride.
Cruise should have got an Oscar for his performance in it. It was the highlight of his career. He was outstanding.
His best acting ever.
He might have if he was not up against Daniel Day Lewis.
Agreed! 👍
Daniel Day-Lewis was otherworldly in _My Left Foot_
Cruise was great. Any other year he wins. But DDL in my left foot was other worldly.
I think De niro was filming Awakenings during this
he has a bit of the character in him
This movie deserved best picture back then!
Spike Lee was completely overlooked for his incredible direction of "Do the Right Thing!" Oliver Stone completely deserved to win, but, man, Spike Lee should have at least received a nomination!!!
spike lee threatening wim winders cost him a nom
True. Just eliminate Kenneth Branagh who was always overrrated, and Spike Lee could easily have been nominated as well.
Ron Kovic sitting right next to Stone and being thanked first made me teary eyed
Meeting this man was a dream come true! WHAT A LEGEND
I love how fast Scorsese says Oliver Stone's name like, "That guy over there".
Oliver Stone is one of the greatest directors ever. Born in 4th of July is just a hit on your stomach. Really deserved. Although I wish they would release Death Poets Society a year later. Such great movie.
Mr. Entringer Now is one of the most overrated and the worst directors ever
Diego Pisfil no
@@diegopisfil614 u sick fuck
Getting Scorsese to hand out the best director Oscar... that's kicking a man when he's down, that is
I could see your point if he had been nominated that year. As it stands, I don't see getting him to present as kicking him when he's down.
He was probably happy to do it; Oliver was his student in a film class he taught and I'm sure he was over the moon to see this happen.
The Coens too got it from Scorsese in 2008
I love Oliver Stone and his films. He's such a great and outstanding gentleman.
Born on the Fourth of July is one of my favorite films. I think it's Tom's best performance.
Oliver Stone, my hero. Thank you!
Never realized how good a job they did in make up in Goodfellas because Deniro looks like 1977 Deniro in 1990 when he looked like 2003 Deniro in Godfellas(1990)
It's so fitting that Oliver Stone gets the Oscar handed to him by his former university mentor. It must have been an interesting moment for the both of them.
Martin Scorsese was his mentor?
What a sensational moment in time. The teacher handing out the OSCAR to his student.AMAZING!
ANother MAsterpiece- best Tom Cruise movie by far.
Best Tom Cruise movie role is Collateral, in my humble opinion.
Robert de Niro looks really tall and then you realize that it is because Martin Scorsese is so short.
Over time I have come to realize Stone's profound contribution to understanding the senseless horrors of war and the terrible toll on combatants. Our veterans continue to suffer the consequences.
There were also a lot of Vietnam Civilian Civilians and even Soldiers who were hurt and even killed because of a War that the U.S. should not have been in.
And then you realize that Stone is taller.
I’ve always loved the way Martin talks so fast
Well deserved win, brilliantly played by Tom Cruise and the great cast and God bless you Ron for having courage to tell your story
Scorsese was Oliver stone’s teacher at film school
At New York University's Tisch School of the Arts more precisely.
@@JotaDM2023 I thought it was NYU film school?
@@Sophie_kent Yeah! The "film school" at the New York University is the Tisch School of the Arts. The Tisch school has the Kanbar Institute, dedicated to film classes. Joel Coen, Kenneth Lonergan, Vince Gilligan, Sean Baker, Martin Brest, Jim Jarmusch, Todd Phillips, M. Night Shyamalan, John Waters, and Todd Solondz studied at that school. Some dropped out of school. Others, like John Waters, were expelled.
Back when the Oscars had integrity.
That Oscar absolutely should have gone to Spike Lee for Do The Right Thing but at least it was still won by a truly outstanding director for one of his best films.
Best Vietnam War movie ever!
There was no doubt!
This was entirely a well deserved win here! "Born on the Fourth of July" is one of Oliver Stone's greatest cinematic achievements that realistically and sensitively depicted the excruciatingly painful biopic of Vietnam War veteran, Ron Kovic, played to pure perfection by Tom Cruise. It was a truly powerful and deeply resonating film on the ramifications war can have on one's psyche and physical health that still haunts me to this very day.
What a great movie
Matúš Kollár that movie scared me about war.
OMG the man who wright scarface
this guy made two cinema masterpieces: Platoon and born on the 4th of July
well deserved oscar....shame though that since stone's 'platoon' won the best picture award earlier, that could be why 'born on the fourth of july lost for this particular year
Not only that but Oliver Stone won an oscar for directing Platoon as well.
I think both Hannah and Her Sisters, Born on The Fourth Of July should have won Oscar for Best Picture.
Here's Marty giving one of his students (from my understanding) his second directing Oscar, and yet Marty at this point STILL hadn't won. It would be 17 years later before he won for The Departed.
I've been in love with Robert De Niro since i was a kid. I've seen this clip before, it took my breath away. How beautiful is he in his suit and thick dark hair.
Oh my love. I'll love you always.
Crimes and Misdemeanors is such a spectacular movie
Can we acknowledged how hot De Niro was
Dude ...i hope you can make more movies like "born in the 4th of July".I could not stand another "Alexander"
with respect to oliver it's easy to win when you're the only nominee who made a blistering film , the other 4 were well made but dull compared to BOTFOJ
This is easily tom cruises best perfomance...any other year not going up against arguably the best actor or all time daniel day lewis....he woulf have won....but as we all know now....what a career...for both
WELL DESERVED!!!!!!!!!!!!!! To add to my comment. Certainly Oliver or Peter deserved this award!!!
Tough decision
what´s the name of the song in the beginning of the video??
"The Party's Over"
How this masterpiece lost to Driving Miss Daisy is beyond me.
Born on the Fourth of July has great directing.
Scorsese looks like he just stepped into the world of Gangs of New York

Quaid and Jim Caviezel in “Frequency”, Holland played Marge Crowley in the “Room Service” ep. of TV series “Strange Frequency”
oliver and elizabeth may not be together anymore but theyre still good friends. i think.
For me this list should have been:
Oliver Stone
Kenneth Branaugh
Peter Weir
Spike Lee
Edward Zwick
I don't begrudge the four directors who've beat him over the years: Sydney Pollack, Oliver Stone, Steven Spielberg, Peter Jackson. All right, maybe Jackson, since I hate the fact Master and Commander had to come out the year the Academy realized it better honor Lord of the Rings already. But, seriously, fine filmmakers all. But I do hope Peter Weir, my personal favorite director, wins an Oscar in the near future.
why did the academy didn't nominate Bruce Beresford, I mean, it was clear that the winner was going to be Oliver Stone (and also I think truly fully deserved win), but f the academy was going to award Driving Miss Daisy as best picture, they should nominate it's director.
Bruce Beresford should have been nominated instead of Kenneth Branagh.
driving miss daisy won best picture the best achievement in film making but the director the person who made the film was snubbed??????
John ADAMS & Thomas Jefferson respectively.

Bobby’s hair is nothing like he was in Goodfellas mind you
Goodfellas was shot back in 1989 and released in 1990

Tom cruise should have won that year too
What a pity Deniro didn't get to work with Stone...
Perhaps he didn’t want to
Yeah I thought the same thing. Kinda weird since Scorsese taught Stone back at NYU. Guess Scorsese was still upset at his Oscar snubs.
Scorsese was first a student at New York University's Tisch School of the Arts, and later he taught classes, having Stone as a student. Spike Lee and Ang Lee were actually classmates there.
why was scorsese presenting he didnt win the year before?
Because he's scorsese
Barry Levinson won the year before, but was unavailable. Bernardo Bertolucci was the year before that, and he was in Italy and declined to present. Oliver himself won the year before that, so of course he couldn't present. They chose Scorsese because he was Oliver's teacher at NYU Film School, and they expected Oliver to win. Like when they expected Scorsese to win years later, they chose his old pals, Spielberg, Lucas, and Coppola to present.
Didn't Barbara Streisand present to Kathryn Bigalow.
Coincidence
I don't know why Tom Cruise didn't win for his phenomenal performance in "Born On The 4th Of July"
Have you seen My Left Foot with Daniel Day-Lewis? Because Tom lost to him that year.
While Oliver Stone did do a fantastic job directing Born on the Fourth of July, I still would have voted for Jim Sheridan for My Left Foot. I feel he should have won it.
De palma the director but oliver wrote the screenplay
I mean a great movie like born on the 4th of july,not a movie with shia labeuf!!
como ha hecho guita con vietnam este hombre
Y merecida
Why did I post this, becuase I love BORN ON THE 4th of JULY movie and I will not allow EVIL to hurt innocent people. SO, i dialed 911 and I did the right thing. All were arrested (reasons not known).
In the year of Goodfellas, Scorsese not nominated? And Branagh nominated???? crazy!!!
Goodfellas came out in 1990. This is for the films of 1989. Also Scorsese was nominated but lost to Kevin Costner for Dances With Wolves.
@@ronaldmcdonald2817 you're right, I wrote an untrue thing
@@damianodebiasi5894 I think Goodfellas should have won in 1990.
Dead Poet's Society.
Steven Spielberg should’ve been nominated and awarded for The Last Crusade.
nah......now he probably should have won for "raiders" though...perfect movie
Stone deserved it for Born on the 4th of July. His directing was simply better then Spielberg’s.
As great a film as last crusade is, the direction isn't Oscar worthy. Spielberg would follow Oliver Stone by winning 2 directing Oscars for his 2 best directed films, Schindler's List and Saving Private Ryan.
Hope oliver will make a movie like this again,his last movie was with shia labeuf,wtf????????~!!!
Directors Who are Overtly Snubbed that year:
1. Spike Lee- "Do the Right Thing"- 1989
2. Bruce Beresford- "Driving Miss Daisy"- 1989
3. Edward Zwick- "Glory"- 1989
4. Steven Soderbergh- "Sex, Lies and Videotape"- 1989
5. James Cameron- "The Abyss"- 1989
6. Ridley Scott- "Black Rain"- 1989
7. Rob Reiner- "When Harry Met Sally..."- 1989
8. Tim Burton- "Batman"- 1989
Not Bruce Beresford.
Only Spike Lee deserved to be nominated along with Stone and Weir. All the other films were weak compared to these three.
@@AntoniosPapantoniou Glory was phenomenal and the second best of the year.
That's about Guadalcanal, WWII and not Vietnam Lol
He thoroughly deserved it for Platoon, but Peter Weir was totally fucked over here.
Apocalypse Now!
Scorsese was stoned here. That's why he is speaking so slow
SPIKE LEE???
Spike was a student at the same school where Scorsese and Stone studied, the New York University's Tisch School of the Arts. And he was a classmate of Ang Lee.
Si q el Oliver se traumo con Vietnam eh??? Y por cierto q mamón en la entrega del Oscar del 87 justo por platoon se quitó el beso de su mujer cuando está lo beso por el premio, q sujeto tan despreciable.
Would have preferred Jim Sheridan to win. My Left Foot should have won Best Picture as well.
Scorsese owns this cheese director
Oliver made such great movies why does he suck now?
DeNiro looks like he just rolled out of bed.
The award should have gone to someone who earned it
Give cruise his due. He considered being temporarily paralysed for the role if it weren't for insurance issues.
He earns his money.
daz samuels I wasn't talking about Cruise. Where in my comment did I say I was talking about Cruise. But from what you said, Cruise would've been a moron if he actually tried to paralyze himself for his role.
***** Being a method actor isn't always the best route to take for acting. It's called ACTING for a reason. Trust me, I know all about the tremendous lengths actors like DDL and DeNiro put themselves through in order to give great performance, but there are other times when an actor does go too far and will probably do something stupid to themsleves if they don't realize it yet.
It was a crime that Tom Cruise did not win the Oscar for best actor here. Whatever you think of him, his performance was a masterpiece.
It’s a sin Robert De Niro and Oliver Stone never worked together.
Robert deniro is the WORST presenter. Ever
As Ebert & Siskel said in their "1990 Oscars picks" here on youtube,
Tom Cruise should've won over Day Lewis
Why ?
