What a brilliant actress. She deserved this award. I'm so glad she won!!!
One of the most deserved wins ever.
Completely agree 👍
I heartily concur !
Knowing that she hated this woman that she played, but how she played it so well, brought healing to my life. She portrayed the abuse I suffered so well. It made me feel like I was not alone. RIP Ms Winters. Thank you for telling the stories that go untold.
Ohh you was a blind slave girl 👧
I’m sorry you were raised in an abusive environment. The movie had a happy ending…hopefully your life has turned around as well.
such a loving woman winning an Oscar for playing one of the most despicable people ever written , THAT'S ACTING !
A Patch of Blue is one of my all time favorite movies and the late Shelley Winters was brillant in it. As was the entire cast. So glad she won.
I seen and interview of her saying nice thing about Poitier! To bad she didn't mention him that night! And the whole cast! In the interview she said Sidney was not given opportunity to direct more like he wanted to.
Me too! Favorite old movie along with Splendor in the Grass.
Shelley deserved every oscar she won. She was so great in everything she ever did.
+Laurel Denver Agreed! She was one of the best!
Amen - Shelley Winters was a fantastic actress and by all accounts a very special, warm hearted human being too.
Totally agree. I especially loved her in A place in the Sun
Shelley was a doll.
Laurel Denver, She definitely should have also won for A Place in The Sun.
Thank you for posting the unedited clip. Look at Ruth!! And beautiful Shelley who is sorely missed. Nice reaction of the tragic Elizabeth Hartman on her co-star's well-deserved win.
Shelley Winters was fantastic as the racist mother in PATCH OF BLUE, methinks
it was a much stronger performance than ANNE FRANK. She deserved this
Oscar even more so. Miss her so much!!
Shelley made a great career out of playing unlikeable, unattractive characters. She was a great actress and a very helpful and knowledgeable teacher. She loved guiding, supporting, and socializing with her students.
torres songs it’s ironic she played such characters because you can clearly see that she was the exact opposite. Beautiful and lovable. Julie Dawn Cole told me how wonderful she was.
@@klassicalmuzik what's sad is she was considered "unattractive" just because she was a little bigger. But she was still beautiful!
I read she did that on purpose to get more roles.
@@bigdaddygru Nah she was a land whale with a horrifying face 🐳
@@dobazajr She put the weight on for Diary of Ann Frank, and struggled all her life to take it off.
Shelly Winters was good in almost everything she did, but Patch of Blue was definitely her best screen performance.
My favorite movie of all time. I pray they never do a remake. God bless Shelly and Elizabeth Hartman and the cast. Superb.
I was touched to see her smile and put her hand on Elizabeth Hartman's shoulder as she went by.
Miles Montemore I am so glad I read the comments because it was so fast I did not notice that but you were right thank you for that observation and acknowledging that .
I think Shelly was a good person with a heart of gold.
I've always loved her. She was a sinner and a winner. She was Shirley and she was Shelley. That one gesture - gently touching the shoulder of Elizabeth Hartman as if to say you are not forgotten or left out - spoke more than words can say. Elizabeth Hartman was a wonderful actress and perhaps she didn't win because often the Oscars are based on a track record as opposed to a single great performance. It may have been assumed her day would come. Certainly she must have believed it because she deserved and earned her day in the sun. When it didn't come, it may have led to her tragic suicide. RIP Shelley and Elizabeth. Forever alive in my loving heart.
+GordanGeeko That was so nicely written.
Well, remember, Elizabeth was nominated for Best Actress, so that award hadn’t yet been given out that evening. Elizabeth hadn’t lost at that point. But then she did lose - oh well.
I just love her. She should have gotten an Oscar for "A Place in the Sun", too.
There is no way that Shelley Winters role in the film A Place in the Sun would have won against the the performance of Vivien Leigh in A Streetcar Named Desire that year.
Has always been one of my favorite actresses!
Shelley greatly deserved this Award. A fascinating performance in a great film. I am so pleased to see that many of you feel, like me, that she deserved an Oscar for "The Poseidon Adventure" as well.
She was truly surprised when she won for this movie, especially considering that she was uncomfortable with playing a racist role when she was in fact a supporter of the Civil Rights Movement in real life.
@@ericandy88 that's brilliant acting when you can play someone the complete opposite of who you and what you are
She deserved a 3rd oscar for the Poseidon Adventure as well
Guess she'll have to settle for nailing maybe the greatest scene in a disaster movie, as in the "You've carried me all this way. . ." speech, followed by that dive.
When she died in that movie I cried like a baby
Great acceptance speech too. Very sincere and not long-winded or self-serving.
as Patch of Blue...underrated.
Shelley Winters acting was outstanding in the movie Patch of Blue.RIP Shelley.
I loved her as Ma Gogan in one of my favorite childhood films, Pete's Dragon.
Shelley Winters and Dianne Wiest are the only actresses who won 2 Oscars in category Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress.
I didn't realize that til you pointed it out. THANKS !
I thought that her acting in this movie was outstanding and she deserved to win this .
Her role in LOLITA was the best! As the high strung mother of Sue Lyon it was one of the high points of her career.
And another role she might have been nominated for.
Remarkable talent and actress; watch her performances in Alfie, Lolita, Wild in the Streets and Next Stop Greenwich Village.
Yes, they were other good movies she played in. Also, "A Place in the Sun" and "A House is Not a Home" based on the, true life of a madam.
Shelley was amazing in Next Stop Greenwich Village as the overbearing mother. She never gave a bad performance.
LOVE Shelley Winters, a wonderful, gifted and dedicated actress and if her chat show appearances are anything to go by, a fabulous and funny human being too! That smile was so gorgeous. I read she was pals with Marilyn Monroe and in their early days as unknown actresses, they shared a flat together in LA. Just imagine having Marilyn Monroe and Shelley Winters as next door neighbours - what fun they would be!
Shelley did have a gorgeous smile. Absolutely loved her in Poseidon and all of her other movies except maybe Pete’s Dragon lol.
I love Shelley!
Ma Barker
Shelley was an amazing actress.
Love you, Shelley! You were one BRILLIANT actress!
Yes, And she always had a nice and genuine way about her.
Today Commemorates Shelley Winters' 100th Birthday
I've always wanted to see Peggy Wood in footage of the Academy Awards for the year 1965. She should have won for this role even though Shelley had a stronger role. This great actress did not make many movies because she was primarily a Broadway actress but her legacy is intact with the Sound of Music and I Remember Mama television show.
Peggy looked really nervous as the names were being read. Since Peggy didn’t do her own singing, they didn’t feel she did enough work for the part. Still a fine performance though.
Ms Winter's had an incredible life and was fortunately blessed -
Two of my favorite performances by Shelly Winters are; A Place in the Sun. I think she was a supporting actress put in the wrong category of lead actress nomination, and Lolita (a smaller part). A well deserved Oscar for this role.
She was terrific in A Place in the Sun
Those people back then were so energetic
ruth Gordon a fabulous actress sadly missed. I was a great fan.
I LOVED Ruth Gordon in her films, but she is particularly good in this episode of Columbo, as the murderer. She kills her nephew-in-law, because she is nearly 100% sure he killed her niece.
@@TitanicHorseRacingLover I remember that one I loved the way they did her hair in that.i wished she had got away with it she loved her niece,
@@carolhodson6353 Same.
Ruth would win 3 years later for an even better performance in Rosemary's Baby..
She was the opposite of D'Arcy. Class. Grace. Respectful. Always thanked the little people. I love her in this and many others too many to name from a double life to portrait of a lady from Bob hope to Roseanne the world is forever grateful to the one and only Shirley Schrock aka Shelley winters. God bless you in heaven!
Great film and performance. Keep them coming Oscars!
I never saw a patch of blue this was a little before my time but I was a kid when my mom took me to see The Poseidon Adventure and even though Gene Hackman was the lead actor Shelley Winter's performance always stood out and was so real it traumatized me. I will definitely watch patch of blue now!
What a voice on Mr. Ustinov! 😮
Wonderful to see Shelley Winters receive the Oscar and give her thanks in such a gracious way. If things had gone differently maybe Shelley Winter's friend and former roommate Marilyn Monroe might have had such a moment too.
I was blown away by her performance. Clearly she wasn't racist but played the role to the hilt!
Much deserved.
Incredible actress!
I just watched this clip and wow, Shelley Winters deserved that Oscar. I was glad she won. On the other hand, I am disturbed by some of the comments on this page especially leaning towards Winters as a woman offscreen. It's called ACTING, people! C'mon, Shelley Winters was playing a character for crying out loud. Some of you need to learn how to separate fact from fiction. There are many famous instances of onscreen vicious characters played well to a T. Does Barbara Stanwyck from "Double Indemnity," Mr. Potter from "It's a Wonderful Life," the Nurse Davis character from "The Snake Pit," or Anthony Perkins from "Psycho" come to mind? What about Nurse Ratched, Frank Booth from "Blue Velvet," or Hannibal Lector from "The Silence of the Lambs?" Liking Winters' performance doesn't make me an evil person like watching Tarantino movies makes me want to go out and shoot somebody or watching the films of Lars von Trier make me want to become a clinically depressed nihilist. Roseann, the character that won Shelley Winters her second Oscar, was a cruel, abusive mother from hell and a c-u- next Tuesday. Even Shelley Winters, who later said in an interview that she always found redeeming qualities in the characters she played, hated this woman. I don't blame her. A part of that probably had to do with the fact that Shelley was a mother to a daughter herself in real life so I can only imagine how difficult it must have been to play a vicious drunk onscreen that engendered her own daughter's blindness. Nonetheless, Winters' Best Supporting Actress win for "A Patch of Blue" has to be one of the most deserving wins in Oscar history.
well, in defence of the commenters, winters was a pretty awful person in real life, playing it up in public aside. if you're going to stick up for somebody, learn a little about who you're sticking up for. take your own advice about seperating fact from fiction.
Maggie Smith blowing off award shows for 50+ years.
Curt l she’s shown up for three of her Oscar nominations and her Tony win.
@@Dennisanyone- Yes, she accapted her supporting Oscar. Also was there when she was nominated for Gosford Park.
When she won for Miss Jean Brody, she was performing onstage at a theatre in London.
@@Dennisanyone- never showed up to the Golden Globes or Emmys or the other three oscar nomiantions
Love her in everything she did she was great
Elizabeth Hartman and Geraldine Page worked on You’re a Big Boy Now.... they remained close throughout their lives, and both died within three days of one another 34 years ago.
As Shelley Winters had won before I would like to see Peggy Wood winning. She was very heartwarming and sweet as Mother Abbess and she was too old to be a nominee again.
Loved Ms. Shelly, one of the best!
Back when the Oscars had CLASS!
Wow I saw her in "Poseidon" and "Roseanne" and NEVER knew it was the same person
My favorite characters-A patch of blue, Mrs. Frosty, and Rosanne's grandmother(hilarius). Of course there were many many more.
TheChannel.TV Believe it or not there are real people in the world like her character-I liked it because she exposed it in true fashion!-That's what kind of person I am.
+Annette Jenkins I'm well aware that putrid people exist in the world. I don't need Shelley Winters or any other actor to remind me. But how common is blinding your daughter?! Where the hell were Child Protective Services? She should have given that Oscar to a shelter for such victims. If you want to witness truly great acting by Ms. Winters, you should see A Place in the Sun (1951) and Next Stop, Greenwich Village (1976). Either one will make Patch pale in comparison. ps I apologize for the closing remark in my previous communication. I don't agree with your justification for that character, but you seem smart and sincere. So I am sorry.
She looked so pretty
I loved her.
Still do.
The thing most people found difficult about the Diva Shelley was .... how to shut her UP
She waas terrific and funny! I miss her!!!!
Congratulations Shelley 🏆
I LOVE Shelley Winters💜
I love every single Shelly Winter's movie~
She made some great movies!! Great actress!!
Especially cleopatra Jones and Helen! Ma barker a close second.
I was watching " The Initiation of Sarah" which was a tv movie about sororities. There were many young actresses working with her and you can just imagine how they honed their roles with Shelley's counsel. There is some really good work in this picture, and I think Shelley had a lot to do with that.
The Devil's Daughter from the early 70's is one of my favorite Shelley performances. She is over the top as the head of a coven of devil worshippers.
Yes she was great in that role, darn convincing. that apartment setting was so dismal. And that film was very good and for its time I guess it was pushing it. I was a kid and my mom took me to the library and I tried to get the book to read and the librarian said that they didn't have the book because it was too much of a taboo controversial topic! I live kiddy corner from the south too. Really amazing how much things have changed in the last 50 years.
Wonderful thank you .
I love you Shelley.RIP
I loved Shelly Winters, she was a lovely woman, and excellent, in every part she played, "A Patch of Blue" was such a very, well made movie of it's time and set a strong message. Shelly was great, acting as the, abusive, racist, bimbo, of a mother. But I have to admit, she also put a spark of humour in some of her roles, and you couldn't help but laugh. The whole cast did an excellent performance, especially, the late, Sidney Poitier and Elizabeth Hartman. RIP Shelly, you took home two Oscars, Bravo!👏👏💖💐💐🙏
01:52 I saw Shelley walk this way in "Lolita" and thought it was a comedy walk, but now I realize that's how she walked. It's cute.
Love Shelly Winters! ❤
God bless you Shelley, you will always be wonderful,
In my books she deserved an Oscar for A Place in the Sun perhaps her best role among so many.
Indubitably ! She is so heartbreaklingly real in "A Place in the Sun" ! Totally agree she deserved an Oscar for THAT performance too !!
She's great in The Poseidon Adventure...after her "Bombshell" years.
where the hell is Sydney Poitier?!
Beautiful
Night of the hunter her best film.
It was also Robert Mitchum's favorite role.
No matter what film, she never failed to make an impression! But her underwater death scene creeped me out big time.
@@hcombs0104 I guess you know it was a dummy, so technically it wasn't her scene.
@@powertuber4.068 yeah, now I know. But back when I saw it for the first time, at 13, I didn't. She once said making the mask for her face for the dummy Shelley hurt like hell.
@@hcombs0104 Well since she sacrificed in making the mask, maybe we can call it her scene.
Won for "Patch" and Diary of Anne Frank but was in a tough category in 1951 for her performance as Alice in A Place in The Sun
KYKIN89 i loved that too
This is when the Oscars were so worthwhile to watch and enjoy.
one of the great american actresses
+dan bisson Sometimes. And other times one of the worst.
never
+dan bisson Watch Who Slew Auntie Roo? And even when she was good she was annoying as fucking hell.
I thought that her acting in this movie was outstanding and she deserved to win this and in reality I don't see her as racist.This was a very sad movie and Selina and Ole Pa's acting was great as well.RIP Shelley! I love you.
Could you upload Peter Ustinov's victories?
Do you know that she and Marilyn Monroe are great friends and became roommates when they were starting as starlets.
loved it again!
Shelley Winters was really a great lady I enjoy The Poseidon Adventure
1:58
OH MY GOD! Biff was in this!? How could I not know that!? XD XD
I named my eldest daughter Michelle so she’d get called Shelly for short. Shelley Winters was a fave of mine growing up watching movies ❤️
She should’ve won for The Poseidon Adventure as well!
She most definitely should have!!
Shelley's most remarkable achievement is she virtually bedded every handsome leading man in Hollywood.
Nice voice Peter Ustinov has got
Shelley is beautiful! The best actress.
Shelley should have been nominated for Next Stop Greenwich Village.
Joyce Redman is Amanda Redmans mother. Amanda well known to British TV audiences for decades and perhaps to US audiences as the wife of Ben Kingsley in Sexy Beast.
siempre te amare shelley....
One of the best
bravo Shelly
She donated the Oscar she won for The Diary of Anne Frank to the Anne Frank museum. Very classy.
Shelley Winter... I cried rivers and bawled my eyes out when she died......................................................... in "The Poseidon Adventure".
Live Shelly! ❤️❤️❤️
I didn’t have color tv until 1972 so it’s cool to see this in color
Awesome, she was divine!
Shelly Winters was a fantastic actress
How many Oscar ceremonies did Bob Hope hosted?
Yes.
Shelley was "murdered" in many movies (A DOUBLE LIFE, THE GREAT GATSBY, A PLACE IN THE SUN, THE NIGHT OF THE HUNTER, LOLITA).
I would have loved it if Eleanor Parker had gotten in the race for her gutsy baroness in The Sound of Music. Talk about an iconic performance!
Great Actress. Sad that she did not mention Elizabeth Hartman in her acceptance speech. Hartman should have beat Christie this year.
