Milos Forman wins the Oscar for Directing for One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest at the 48th Academy Awards. Diane Keaton and William Wyler present the award; introduced by Gene Kelly.
Fellini, Kubrick, Lumet, Altman and Forman... Wow!! And to think that Spielberg wasn't even nominated for Jaws that year just shows how much we've gone astray. Any of these men could have won and I would have been satisfied.
I'm not joking when I say this but I actually had a dream about her a few months ago. I was walking in Paris when suddenly I hear her voice and begin interacting with her. God I wish I could record it
RIP to the great Milos Forman (1932-2018). What an outstanding director. I also enjoy his work on both "Ragtime" (1981) and "Amadeus" (1984), where he'd received his other Oscar for Best Director, if my memory serves me right.
Out of all my favorite filmmakers, Milos Forman, John Landis, Cameron Crowe and John Hughes are the ones who influenced me to become a filmmaker. There's something about those guys that interests me. And Milos Forman totally deserved that Oscar for directing One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest. He had a very soulful approach to directing.
One of the most deserved Winners in the catagory EVER (IMHO)! :D One Flew Over Cuckos Nest is one of the best pctures EVERMADE and Mr. Forman was the right man to direct that incredible film! He really helped the film to be a masterpiece with the actors, the funny and comiedic plot, the good producers, the writers and the screenplay and almost Everything good with that Movie! Nune of the other nominated directing efforts came near to him! :D
I think you have the Credit Ken Kesey who wrote the Novel from where it came from. If it wasn't for Ken Kesey writing that Novel there would have been no Movie..
Milos was a great director: cuckoos nest, Amadeus, Hair, etc. Took great original material and made masterful films. Cuckoos Nest is my all time favorite book and film, And Amadeus is up there as well.
One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (Cuckoo's Nest) from 1975 is one of my favorite films of all time where every fear, madness, illness and virtue of its protagonists is explored with humor and compassion, this masterful film is ultimately an unforgettable and incomparable experience. I thank everyone who made it possible to make this film and especially those who have passed away. R.I.P. Miloš Forman (Director) (1932-2018). Saul Zaentz (Producer)(1921-2014).

First Comment. Man, that list of nominees and films, each a masterpiece, and all of them, bona-fide masters, and, remember, that year they snubbed Spielberg for Jaws. That truly was an amazing era for film.
Underrated? Sure, by the general public. But with critics and movie enthusiasts alike? He is held with the highest of esteem. A truly respected and remarkable auteur.
I feel that Fellini nabbed Spielberg of the director’s nomination. I remember the video of Spielberg feeling sad about it and saying I’m not nominated.
Not over any of these gentlemen. Five of the best motion pictures ever made -- "Amarcord;" "Nashville;" "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest;" "Dog Day Afternoon;" "Barry Lyndon" -- and the director was a key contributor to their renown. "Jaws" is great (as is Spielberg), but it's not in this league.
@kutuluu Yes interesting how two of the greatest directors of all time, Kubrick and Fellini, are nominated together, and yet both of them get hardly any applause at all
+blinkzone1 I agree, it was common knowledge that the two best motion pictures that year were "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" and "Nashville" so as in some other years they should have/could have "spread the wealth" and awarded one film ie Cuckoo's Nest -Best Picture and one film ie Nashville as in Robert Altman Best Director (as he should have been nominated four years earlier for what is today considered a film masterpiece "McCabe & Mrs. Miller"
@Wired4Life2 Fellini DID win for 8 1/2> Though he got the award for foreign film, not director. To date, no director has won for a foreign film. PS. Would love to see the clip of Fellini getting that Oscar. It was presented by Julie Andrews!
RIP Miloš Forman (1932-2018).

Amacord is actually from 1973. Weird being nominated that year.
@@rafaelandrade7627 Amarcord wasn't released in the US until 1975 and didn't qualify for categories other than foreign language until then.
In reality Milos Forman deserves more than all the other candidates.
Milos Forman is such a great director.
RIP Federico Fellini
RIP Robert Altman
RIP Milos Forman
RIP Stanley Kubrick
RIP Sidney Lumet
Altman, actually

The fourth Oscar-winning director that we’ve lost in the past two years. Cimino, Avildsen, Demme, and now Forman. R.I.P. to all of them.
Diane Keaton around the time she was making Annie Hall. She was so cute!
Fer Abra She is so pretty.
I'm not joking when I say this but I actually had a dream about her a few months ago. I was walking in Paris when suddenly I hear her voice and begin interacting with her. God I wish I could record it
But yeah Diane was so cute. Love her
tak na tohohle pána jsem moc pyšná :-)
Nápodobně
Jako bychom s tím měli cokoliv společného. Pokud něco, pánové jako Forman odsud prchali jak jen mohli, tady by točil normalizační komedie.

People need to see "Ragtime." A forgotten masterpiece that is as relevant today as when it was made.
Thank you for making my favorite movie, RIP Mr. Forman.
Give an oscar to all of them! Fellini, Altman, Kubrick, Forman, Lumet! Holy shit what a lineup!
That was the man behind my all time favorite movie. Rest in peace, Mr. Forman.
RIP maestro.
Tremendously well-deserved.
RIP. Legend...
HIGHLY underrated director. Well deserved win.
Miluji Miloš Forman ❤️
RIP legend, leaves such a great legacy. ✨

Dakujeme Vam za nadherne filmy Milosi a spominame v srdciach na Vas
rest in peace, maestro. for some reason i woke up this morning wanting desperately to watch 'cuckoo's nest' ... now i know why.
Damn, that's a high quality choice of directors. Wow
Wyler and Forman directed FIVE best picture winners between them.
And won 6 Oscars for best director. Wyler: 4. Forman: 2.

You will be remembered as a legend.
The best movie of Milos Forman
Actually, I preferred Amadeus.
Jesus, what competition that year, talk about heavy hitters. And Milos beat them all. Remarkable era in cinema.
William Wyler. Wow!
First Comment.
Man, that list of nominees and films, each a masterpiece, and all of them, bona-fide masters, and, remember, that year they snubbed Spielberg for Jaws. That truly was an amazing era for film.
R.I.P Miloš
What a thrill to see the great William Wyler. I wish there was more archival footage of one of the greatest directors in motion picture history.
What a great director.
An incredible director genius !!! 👏👏. R.I.P
oh my god, what a year. the five deserved it
Love miss Keaton ❤
What a year for film. Those films were all so good. This was the film industry’s crème de la crème.
When movies were classics, when all of the nominated directors are legends and remembered today!
WOW Federico Fellini , Stanley Kubrick y Sidney Lumet compitiendo que locooo
Wow - how brilliant were those five movies.
Increible ese grupo de directores
Todos unos genios
Our national treasure! Excellent and original moviemaker!
Rest In Peace
Diane was already rocking her Annie Hall look here
could you imagine beating Stanley goddamn Kubrick? What a rush that must’ve been
If I was being sent to a remote place and could only take one film with me, it would be my DVD of “The Firemen’s Ball.” RIP.
Oh, Diane. I love you
CZECH REPUBLIC.....♥️✌ REMEMBER IT
Miloš Forman is best director ♥️
still alive Ano!
@@forensicdarling
konečně nějakej čech ♥️
All nominees deserved the award...
Sad to know we've lost him now…
Please post his win for Amadeus!
Wow, what a set of nominees
great director great film!
Underrated? Sure, by the general public. But with critics and movie enthusiasts alike? He is held with the highest of esteem. A truly respected and remarkable auteur.
amazing movie.
What. A. Speech. Wow
Very scary to see Diane Keaton's face (Stop at 1:13). Her eyes are set at different heights, one much higher than the other one. Crazy.
R.I.P
I feel that Fellini nabbed Spielberg of the director’s nomination. I remember the video of Spielberg feeling sad about it and saying I’m not nominated.
Dog Day Afternoon should have won! And Milos Forman is my favorite director. What's right is right.
Прощай Милош, спасибо за " гнездо кукушки"!
Great movie!
This was Diane's first Oscar appearance and her last as a presenter for nearly 20 years!
Now I know where the "Kubrick Stare" truly originated from...
Spielberg should've been nominated for Jaws.
Not over any of these gentlemen. Five of the best motion pictures ever made -- "Amarcord;" "Nashville;" "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest;" "Dog Day Afternoon;" "Barry Lyndon" -- and the director was a key contributor to their renown. "Jaws" is great (as is Spielberg), but it's not in this league.
Very stoic, impassive reactions from Fellini and Kubrick.
Absolute squad
he was the great just great
R.I.P. :(
Happy Birthday.
Wow, even in 1976, Jack was wearing shades at night in public.
Bingo!! Lots of envy in old Hollywood. Thanks for sharing
some of your genius, Mr. Kubrick!
Vše bylo řečeno R.I.P Miloš Forman
@henrysinaga Diane Keaton IS Annie Hall. The movie was based on her.
I’ve never seen him before. I don’t know why but I didn’t expect him to have been so attractive.
why is everybody mentioning just Kubrick, Fellini's movies are masterpieces as well
Yes but Amacord, as enjoyable as it is, is not among his masterpieces.
Personally, I think Fellini is one of the most over-rated directors in history.
But things would be pretty dull if we all had the same opinions.
I agree with Ilija, thought the same...the golden age of the cinema
M.F. 80! happy birthday czech film icon!
There is a very big reason for that. He has an intense fear of flying.
@kutuluu Yes interesting how two of the greatest directors of all time, Kubrick and Fellini, are nominated together, and yet both of them get hardly any applause at all
For me
1 Milos Forman
2Federico Fellini
3Robert Altman
4Sidney Lumet
5Stanley Kubrick
Why is Kubrick last?
Docela konkurence
The applause picks up after the first two nominees strictly because they were actually there in attendance.
*RIP*
Gene was so excited about announcing Wyler, he didn't mention Diane Keaton
R.I.P.
I read Milos and Jack Nicholson didn't get along on the set, despite the mutual respect shown here.
I would 've vote for Robert Altman :)
+blinkzone1 I agree, it was common knowledge that the two best motion pictures that year were "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" and "Nashville" so as in some other years they should have/could have "spread the wealth" and awarded one film ie Cuckoo's Nest -Best Picture and one film ie Nashville as in Robert Altman Best Director (as he should have been nominated four years earlier for what is today considered a film masterpiece "McCabe & Mrs. Miller"
❤️
And this is Diane Keaton 😂
Köszöm.
Hardest choice ever ^^
@Wired4Life2 Fellini DID win for 8 1/2> Though he got the award for foreign film, not director. To date, no director has won for a foreign film.
PS. Would love to see the clip of Fellini getting that Oscar. It was presented by Julie Andrews!
