@Jbirdrules3818 Julie Andrews , great though she is ,never acted beyond her comfort zone in either movie on the other hand Julie Christie showed great depth with a complex character in Darling and rightfully won ,also Elizabeth Hartmann was a close second in "A Patch of Blue."
Those of us who lived near Hollywood know that there was a very, very influential hollywoood columnist, named Sidney Skolsky. He wrote for the Hollywood Citizen-News, based in the heart of hollywood. Oscar voters had easy access to that paper.
Mr. Skolsky pushed hard for Julie Christie in his columns.
He also favored Oskar Werner for Best Actor, but he missed on that one.
It's Samantha Egger, as in "egg salad," not "eager." Apparently, Rex had never heard of her, but the nominees are announced in advance... so he could have asked.
She has been nominated 4 times. I think she should have one for both "Afterglow" and "Away from Her," and so I am glad she is an Oscar winner (for "Darling" which I think she deserved, too). Great great actress and amazing woman.
Both of Julie Andrews and Christie did very well in the year. I do think both of them deserved the Oscar, and I'd prefer they to making it tie like Barbra Streisand and Katharine Hepburn.
Maybe Christie won the Oscar because Andrews had won it a year earlier for Mary Poppins.
She also got a belated birthday present that night. Her 25th birthday was four days before (on April 14). This April 14, she will turn 70. My oh my how time flies!
Style. Class. Glamour. That was Hollywood back in the sixites. I liked that gold outfit that Julie Christie had on. Nowadays, these stars dress like slobs!
@thadxxx I don't think she showed up for that Oscar win (Walter Matthau alluded to it when he won best supporting actor). It's a shame since it's considered one of the best performances by an actor ever.
@thadxxx She didn't show up because everyone knew that Richard Burton would lose for the same film so she was pissed off and taking her man's side and boycotted the Oscars that year.
Wow. she's gorgeous and hot.. i know she went with Warren Beaty for a long time.. Did she ever have children?? I love when the oscar winner is genuine and not fake like this.
@MYSHARONA48 of the 20th century? No I wouldn't go that far. There are plenty who are better than her: Maggie Smith, Liv Ullman, Vanessa Redgrave, Meryl Streep, etc. But Christie does have a certain mesmerizing star quality.
Forgot to say it's delightful to see Elizabeth Hartman as one of the nominees. She gave a sublime and heart-rending performance in A Patch of Blue. I still remember that film very fondly.
I miss the good old days when the Oscars didn't make a fuss out of everything and winners would keep their speeches simple. it's painful to watch everything blown out of proportion nowadays
She has a timeless quality about her. That hair and that dress on anybody else today would look weird and dated, she could go looking like that today to the Oscars and still look sensational.
Julie Andrews stands back stage because a few minutes earlier she accepted the best director Oscar award for Robert Wise ("The Sound of Music"). He was off somewhere on location filming "The Sand Pebbles" Julie had not managed to filter back to her seat out front yet.
Julie Andrews stands back stage because she had a few minutes earlier accepted the best director award for Robert Wise (off in Asia or somewhere filming The Sand Pebbles) and somehow hadn't managed to filter back to her seat out front.
Miss Christie had some competition Samantha Eggar and Simone Signoret..she wasn't known throughout the world like Andrews...it was a scandalous night and the following yr. she arrived in a mini dress ! read about it...love this oscar channel...you rock!
an excellent piece of footage, the same year of Dr. Zhivago which lost to The Sound Of Music...Christie should've been nominated for both films...check them out!
The only one I have seen out of the nominees was Julie Andrews, so I cant make an opinion, but Julie is an amzing actress, and Im sure all the others were too.
draling.. DARLING will be broadcast tonight Tuesday jan 5 2010 on TCM do yourself a favor. I saw it once.. didn;t like it but at least it was diferent for the times
the academy must be ragen cause the sound of music had so much succes .the most famous film of all time while i have never even heard of julie christie of "darling" lol julie andrews should have won !
The fact that so many ignorant comments are allowed here is appaling. So you've never heard of the winning performance, yet immediately claim another one should have won? Don't be ridiculous. And Diana Scott was miles ahead of Julie Andrews singing and beaming character.
Well if you never heard of "Darling," you have some catching up to do. One of the best performances by an actress, ever. The right Julie went home with Oscar.
Well, if you never heard of "Darling," you have some catching up to do. One of the best performances by an actress, ever. Oscar went home with the right Julie.
Since when is nationality relevant when judging a performance? Besides, enoigh with actors playing physically or mentally challenged people to get an award.
Shes not standing in the basement. Shes standing at the side of the stage cause she just finished presenting an award. just like Audrey hepburn in '68.
Julie Andrews was offstage as she had just presented the best Actor to Lee Marvin. The big question is Where is Samantha? She was there. Only Simone was not there.
She has always had more gifts than she'll probably let us (the audience) ever know. But she has a right to her gifts. They belong her property, and she guards them. Her only obligation is to share them with us when she feels like it. Which may be never at all, if that's her choice.
I've wanted to see this for ages - my favourite girl in my favourite film - but I had NO idea that my other favourite Julie in my OTHER favourite film was ALSO up for an oscar that year and didn't win....
It was Away from Her in which she was truely astonishing, but I think Cotillard deserved it more (even though I prefer Christie as an actress) and I think it was rather a supporting role.
Apparently, Samantha Eggar was in attendance. According to INSIDE OSCAR, the "cameras showed Julie Christie, Samantha Eggar and Elizabeth Hartman in the audience, and Julie Andrews waiting backstage"; Simone Signoret wasn't present. The camera definitely didn't show her in this clip.
Its a shame Julie Andrews didn't win for The Sound of Music. Considering it was on the silver screen for nearly 10 years after its initial release, i think she deserved it.
One of the most beautiful and talented actresses of all time. I just love her reaction when her name was announced. A well deserved win her portrayal of Diana Scott was amazing!!!
@grumpy88888 I've had a CRUSH on her for years and years. WARREN BEATTY was a dumbass for letting her slip thru his fingers. OF COURSE ANNETTE BENNING IS "CHOICE" stuff ALSO
I love those old foreign films and Julie in "Darling" is up at the top....this was scandalous....expected to win was the other Julie, that is why she is standing...she was a presenter....Julie was only known in the usa for Doctor Zhivago...FABULOUS POST 5*
Great nominees from great films. While Julie Christie was great in "Darling", you can't forget the role for which Julie Andrews was nominated - Maria Von Trapp in the Best Picture of 1965, "The Sound of Music". Elizabeth Hartman (may she RIP) was also wonderful as Salina D'Arcy in "A Patch of Blue", with Sidney Poitier and Shelley Winters, who won the Best Supporting Actress Oscar for that film.
One of the BEST winning performances of all time, her Diana Scott was powerful and unforgettable. And what a line-up that year, Samantha Eggar should have come second in my opinion.
She was just as out of breath as was her fellow nominee Marion Cotillard in 2008.:-) Darling is really a must-see movie and Christie's performance is magnificent in it.
@acidreflux08 YOU GOT THAT RIGHT. I tell my wife all the time 'IF WE WIN THE LOTTERY I'M GOING TO VISIT JULIE ON THAT ENGLISH FARM WHERE SHE LIVES." WE JUST LOVE HER.
