Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? -- A timeless classic piece of cinematic art that is just as relevant and intellectually/emotionally pungent as it was back in '66. Vividly memorable work, that also gives a treat of three of the best performances in cinema history.
Like, dinaszite said, time has spoken and it's loss of the Best Picture award was a travesty.
instead of just applauding for their favorite dead people this year, how about letting the audience at home vote on which people we like and which we are glad are dead like american idol,,,(((( it is easy for the director to turn down the volume,lol))))))) it would be ironic if the director of the oscar shows are booed when they die,lol
Mmmm... The audience didn't look too excited."Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf" but I like "A Man for All Seasons", especially Paul Scofield's performance.
Audrey Hepburn, Enchanting Lady, Great Star, Great Humanitarian...worked with Fred Zinneman in movie masterpiece The Nun's Story which I feel was her greatest performance. Audrey seemed thrilled Fred Zinneman's brilliant A Man For All Seasons won.
Virignia Woolf lost as it was too risque in 1967 for Academy voters but 3 lyears later they loosened up and voted for Midnight Cowboy. A Man For All Seasons was also typical Academy fair back then. Ben-Hur, Lawrence of Arabia, Bridge on the River Kwai. etc.
Wow, its so sad she is not with us anymore, but what she gave us was remarkable, not really her acting, but her humanity. Look how generous she is, she knew how to make people feel special and she meant it. Just look how she says "I love you" - we all love you dearest Audrey, sleep tight. xx
Audrey! What can you say? I never thought she looked lovelier than this Oscar night. When she says "I Love You" to Hope it reminds me of what a REAL star is. There will never be another.
As Fred goes to stage, there's Ginger Rogers on the aisle. Looks like Donald Pleasence behind her (!?!?) and Andy Devine in front! There's Joan Blondell behind Anouk Aimee w/ the Gregory Pecks next to her. Alan Arkin in front of Anouk with Jocelyne LaGarde, Mako, & Ida Kaminska in successive rows.

Well, Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf is a classic and A Man For All Season is not. Time tells if a movie is deserving.
