that fool forget Burt Lancaster as Sophia Loren. Excuse me gentlemen and sofia Americans, but is only a sex symbol, a woman who has transcended generations and generations

This totally BELONGED to Natalie. Bad enough she got jipped on Rebel and Love with The Proper Stranger, but Splendor was arguably her defining performance. And let's face it, as far as acting as well as star quality and character go Sophia had nothing on Natalie. Poor Nat, they should give an honorary Oscar in her honor
@riv4life618 Natalie was great , however it was Sophia ( who had the disadvantage of staring in a foreign language film ), who deservedly won the Oscar.

I love Natalie Wood, but her performance in "Splendor In The Grass" did not have the depth of that of Sophia's in "Two Women". Sophia's was a gut wrenching raw performance of fire and power second to none. Sophia did not attend because she thought they would never give it to an Italian language performance. It was a first and ground breaking award 50 years ago and most deserved one at that.
Greer should have won an honorary Oscar for classyness I liked how she accepted on Sophia's behalf P.S. This isn't the first time Greer showed classyness she also accepted on Vivian Leigh's behalf also

They should have had a "foreign" award for Sophia for her great performance in Italian! Natalie Wood deserved to win the Oscar for her breathtaking performance in Splendor in the Grass :-)
I have no idea that Sophia wasn't at that Oscar night, when she won this wonderful award. But anyway, we know that "Two women" is a very strong and successful movie both in Italy and in foreign countries.
Funny how Greer Garson accepts an Oscar from Burt. The previous year she presented the Oscar to Burt for Best Actor. I remember she commented "So richly deserved". Burt was very taken by the comment and mentioned it in his speech.
@zim83 - Laurie was great in "The Hustler", but so was Natalie Wood in "Splendor" and who can forget Audrey Hepbeurn as Holly Golightly? What a face....so difficult to choose...
@broadjumper1 Yeah, good line-up. Not to mention the one that would come along the year that followed. Although personally, and I know this amounts to sacrilege, I was never a fan of "Breakfast At Tiffany's" nor of Audrey Hepburn in that movie.
Immer wieder super: Sophia Loren.

While I love Sophia, Natalie Wood gave the best performance of the year as Deanie Loomis in the the unforgettable Splendor in the Grass.

The only problem with this is that Greer Garson accepted it. too bad Sophia wasn't there herself.

Didn't realize Gerry Page was there. I've never seen any pics of her that night. And she looks GREAT!
People: That looks like Millie Perkins to the left of Gerry and Oscar Winner Donald Crisp right behind w/program.
Natalie, seated behind nominee Stuart Whitman, is with Warren Beatty in glasses. And that's singer Andy Williams poking up 2 rows behind Warren.
Proxys: Greer looks sensational!! God I miss people like that! Look at that bearing! A STAR!!!!
