First reaction video.
+MrLeviNielsen Wouldn't that mean technically Spielberg can countersuit the Fine Bros?
I also wanted to write this 😂
"I'm steve Spielberg and i just directed a movie called jaws" epic
@Dean Ronan Lol obvious bot.
@@Kimjungskill He sounds like he is presenting some random student project to a film class.
I know it's kinda off topic but do anyone know a good site to stream new movies online?
@Jason Leandro Flixportal =)
@Archer Zahir Thank you, I signed up and it seems like they got a lot of movies there :D I really appreciate it !
"Who made it? THE SHARK!?!"
+AdamFCB10 lol XD, his friend was frickin right
I was just about to type that but you beat me to it!!!
SOMEBODY'S MOTHER??
He sounds EXACTLY the same as he does now.
Farid Damasio My thoughts exactly. Very rare for someone's voice to be the same at 70 as it was at 30.
ikr
why would you even expect his voice or personality to change
"everybody loves a winner but nobody loves a WINNER"
He had me dying on that line.
I don't get it
@@user-vi4xy1jw7e think Tom Brady
He is saying that films that garner a lot of popularity begin to garner less adoration from critics, which has been true for a very long time when it comes to music/film. Big blockbusters generally aren't as respected by the academy even today.
@@shadysorkin9214 I would say Avengers: Endgame was the first time I personally tracked a film that was praised tremendously be critics and audiences(no matter what you think of Marvel, those are the facts), only for people to get "tired" of it by the year's end. It ended up being nominated for one Oscar that it didn't win, thanks partially to legendary Hollywood directors railing against it.
Shut up!
"The shark was an actress." Lol
Named Bruce! XD
And Bruce is a boy's name! XDXDXD LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
Wow! Fellini, Kubrick, Lumet, Altman, and Forman. Best Director nominations used to be stacked!
CU Movie Buff that list is pretty legit yeah.
Absolutely! What a time it was in film history!
The one who should have probably been nudged out was Fellini. When was "Amarcord" released in the U.S.? I thought it came out two years prior and racked up awards during the '74 awards circuit. Timing should have disqualified that nomination just for this year. But had it been nominated the year before, that would have been perfect.
Now that is a good point.
I think Spielberg should have replaced Altman, who has made better films than Nashville.
Spielberg should have been nominated for Director, but the actual nominees themselves are an incredible group of legends: Altman, Kubrick, Fellini, Lumet, Forman!
@krazykajeevieyes he was Jaws has stood the test of time.
Everybody loves a winner, but nobody loves a WINNER
I don't get it, though english isn't my primary language.
@Samuel Serridge Titanic? The Lord of Ring? Forrest Gump?
By the way Inception is boring, Total Recall is a better dream spy movie.
@Samuel Serridge The point was more political than that. It's all about box office money and what movie will generate the best buzz to put more money in the producers' pockets. Successful movie have won Oscars before, but there's usually a whole campaign about why it could make even more money. Jaws was madly successful, but (according to the Academy) couldn't be sold to everyone as the "award-winning movie" they could make more profit from.
“I got beaten out by Fellini”.
The fact that Spielberg, 29 at the time, after only his second theatrical feature, was disappointed he wasn’t recognized over one of the most internationally renowned filmmakers at the time is hilarious.
I think his disappointment reflects his accomplishments more than his ego. He worked his ass off on Jaws and made the biggest studio hit of the year. He earned his place in Hollywood.
search pizza gate issac kappy
Oh dear Lord. Why did Spielberg bring in a camera crew to see the nominations? The fact that he said Jaws was going to receive 11 Nominations and only receive 4 on camera was a bad move on his part.
The worst snubb in 1975, was no doubt, Robert Shaw not getting a nomination for Best Supporting Actor! Plus, Director of Photography Bill Butler, not getting a nomination
@@victormirabelli5895 I believe he was just playing around. He was a young man puking goofy jokes. He is pretty sarcastic in this video. Of course he was nervous and wanted to record it. I mean come on! Having your movie being recognized and nominated with fellow directors as Kubrick, Fellini and Lumet (to name a few) is just a crazy thing.
In the end... Jaws survived and everybody knows about its existence almost 50 years since it was released. Such a great film. At least to me it is.
I think he was surprised because foreign directors aren't always nominated.
I wonder what Steven Spielberg would think if he saw this video today.
Exactly what he was thinking back then: Morons.
You know this was satire right?
@@RetrocadePodcast this was his real reaction to not even being nominated which was outrageous that movie would not have been the movie it was without Spielberg being brought in the original director kept calling the shark a whale
"I was a kid".
@@RetrocadePodcast Its obviously a joke. But its still rings true today. Jaws should be a high contender for best picture just like Star Wars the following year when Annie Hall won.
"who made the picture? somebody's mutha?"
On the bright side, "Jaws" did win 3 out of 4 of those awards.
He was expecting to have 11 nods.
@@jay_rjabonillo9908 I think he was at least semi joking when he said that
@@breezingby2611 He unknowingly predicted his future, since "The Color Purple" would go on to receive 11 noms.
@@csjcsj2906 and yet he was inexplicably snubbed for director again
"Jaws" should've won Best Picture.
Love his friends
JOE SPINELL from Rocky and The Godfather and The Conversation and MANIAC and Joe Pesci's brother Frank Pesci from BEVERLY HILLS COP and KILLER FISH. . . .that director guy, what a horrible career that guy had, we never heard from Spielberg again; I think he ended-up making a spaghetti western in the early 1980s and was never heard from again. ha ha ha ha ha
Understandable reaction. This was his first major hit film and there was a lot of expectation that "Jaws" would get a director nomination. He seemed just as surprised that none of the actors were nominated either. It would go on to win 3 of its 4 categories: Editing, Score and Sound. The one it lost was Best Picture, to "One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest," another popular movie. Spielberg was recognized by the Directors Guild of America with a nomination there.
I got beaten out by Fellini LOL
Johnny Greenblack. No
Johnny Greenblack every one in the world knows that steven Spielberg is the best film maker of All. Time and he will all ways be
Hahahahahahahahaha thats funny how old are 10
Im sorry it wrong of me
anderson pictures channel The BFG, Ready player one, Kingdom of the crystal skull.
Spielberg was friends with the guy from The Godfather! That's a trip. I love these kind of videos
I think Spielberg's work on Jaws is one of the best behind-the-camera performances of all time, and how this was not seen by the Academy is bizarre. And his friends are absolutely right: how can it get the Best Picture Nomination but not Best Director? The director makes the movie, right?
+shredmaster2009 This is the same organization that disqualified Tron from the Best Special Effects nomination because they thought using computers was cheating.
+shredmaster2009 There's 50 years of auteur theory you need to read before you can make that claim haha
tons of people make the movie, the director tries to keep it in the right direction.
there was a quote by someone, cant remember who, about the cases where a best director oscar didnt also lead to best Picture oscar: "If the best director didnt direct the best picture, then what the hell did he direct?"
Kinda reminds me to when Ben affleck didn´t get nominated for directing when he won 90 percent of directing awards for Argo....I´m pissed
Wow, I read about this years ago in an unauthorized biography of Spielberg but I never saw it, thanks for sharing! Spielberg was so sure that he was going to win for JAWS that he invited news reporters to come film him winning from home. It became a very humbling experience for him, to say the least.
Spielberg had insane competition I didn’t even realize
I don't know if Steven would cringe watching this now, but he shouldn't. It's actually a really nice snapshot of who he was at that moment. Sure, he was feeling a little cocksure but he was a young man with a huge success. Who could blame him? His humor came through along with some measure of vulnerability. He certainly was passed over on the best director nomination. What a great line: Everybody loves a winner, but nobody loves a WINNER!
Oh I don't blame him whatsoever, I'd have been cocky too if I could say "Yeah I directed Jaws, and it was just one of many feature films I've directed". Go ahead and let this man swing his dlck around some lol
The entire video was a joke, pure satire.
Jaws is one of those perfect movies. He had every right to be cocky about it. Hard to believe he was so young when he made it
@@cryptomoonshotdreaamzzz1869 not many people see it... He was just nervous because his movie was recognized along freaking Stanley Kubrick, Federico Fellini, Sidney Lumet, among others... And he was just playing around. It was a fucking kid back then.
It seemed like he was half joking anyway
Wow! That is Joe Spinell giving the diatribe. He was one of my favorite character actors, he played the loan shark in Rocky, he was in the Godfather, Cruising, he was personal friends with Spielberg, that is pretty cool!
“You can not win best Picture without a best Director nomination!”
Green Book: Allow me to introduce myself.
CODA with three nominations says hi.
Argo: I tell ya I get no respect
Driving Miss Daisy has come back from the dead
Inception? Four Weddings and a Funeral? District 9? The list goes on with that category.
@@alphabetaxenonzzzcat those didn't win Best Picture though
"The shark was an actress" im dying
The commercial backlash part Spielberg speaks about happens more than ever now
Basically hating on popular stuff just because it's popular?
@@user-vi4xy1jw7e Yeah, Martin Scorsese specializes in it.
@@user-vi4xy1jw7eYes.
"Everybody loves a winner. But nobody loves a winner." Very true, even today.
Joe Spinell hanging out with Spielberg, . . who knew?
I was tripping on that also.
So great to see Joe Spinell, there. What a legend!
It’s too bad he wasn’t around to see his best friend win the Oscar for Schindler’s list and saving private Ryan.
The GOAT
who made the picture ? somebodys mother ? lmfaooo
Who made it? The shark?
wow steven seems so chill
Such a chill guy... you gotta love him!
my god this man is such a nice person! doesn't curse one bit..doesn't over react ..doesn't discredit other nominees.
what a man!
What do you mean? He discredited Fellini: "I got beaten out by Fellini?!"
James-Lachlan McCallum no, he wasn’t discrediting him- he was genuinely surprised because Fellini came out of nowhere to beat him for the nomination. Spielberg had been nominated for Best Director with all the precursor awards- and surprisingly Fellini edged him out at Oscars. He was simply noting that.
@@ticktock2162 just noticed your reply. no he wasn't discrediting him. he just remarked instantly. in the rest of the video he wasn't serious. he made some light remarks of general disappointment but directed towards the system. he is widely known to be a very humble and down to earth personality. as for fellini, on many occasions he has actually praised his work
And now he says he never expected to be nominated for an Oscar...
They seriously didn't nominate Spielberg for best Director?
Yeah ridiculous. They never nominated Scorsese for Taxi Driver either, absolute benders.
ThatGuyFromBritain They didn't want to give it to him so early, they joked about it years later
I'm Batman Altman didn’t need to be nominated. He’s directed better films than Nashville.
Roy Scheider and Robert Shaw should’ve been nominated for Beat Actor and Best Supporting Actor.
Really? Nashville is generally considered to be Altman's best.
Steven Spielberg comes across as a very down to earth guy, honest and boyish even for his age. And what he said is right: "Everybody loves a winner, but nobody loves a winner."
Put it into perspective: "Citizen Kane" (1941), considered by many the greatest film ever made, did not win for best picture. "How Green Was My Valley" was the winner. Who the hell remembers that film today?
How Green Was My Valley is a great film
Just watched it for the 30th time last week. It was on TCM. It is a great film, as is CK, IMO.
@@ryanegger4425 Not saying it's a bad movie but when you compare it to Citizen Kane, which film made a bigger cultural impact? I would say Citizen Kane.
@@jet4212006 I mean, a making of the movie called Mank which was directed by David Fincher got nominated for 10 Oscars including Best Picture which follows one of the writers, Herman J. Mankiewicz who brought the idea of the film to Orson Welles.
That's gotta hurt!
Indeed. Feel bad for him.
"Who do you think made this picture?! The shark?!!"
Amazing access! True Spielberg generosity to share that moment with all of us.
"Cancel my day, I'm going to palm springs."
He didnt say shark. He said shak
This is like a window into not only film history but into the world of 1976. It's almost surreal because of how the amature footage is so clean and clear.
Spielberg's mates are the legends here 🤣🤣
The only director to have nominations for SIX different DECADES
This is fantastic picture and audio quality for the 1970s!
Such a character. Love this guy.
this is gold! why am I just seeing this?!
So surreal to see Spielberg and Joe Spinell interacting.
Thank you very much for the upload.It's just fantastic to see Mr. spielberg nearly 40 years ago.That's just great.Who knows that day that moment that Mr.Spielberg is gonna become the greatest film maker of all time.
This video just kept getting better and better! Amazing man!
Steven Spielberg and Joe Spinell just hanging out watching the Oscar nominations. And talking shit about Bob Fosse! 😂😂😂
Great movie. Robert Shaw deserved best supporting actor for that Indianapolis monologue alone
Thanks for uploading this jewel. Spielberg has such wisdom at the end of this video recording.
God bless Joe Spinell, flipping out to save a friend's embarrassment. Spinell's the best.
thank you for this comment. wasn’t sure if that was him
@@jackdriscoll8387 lol same here! Gotta love Willie Cicci
@@Orangeflava i love the godfather movies but honestly didn’t even recognize him/ realize it was him, but remember him in taxi driver and especially rocky
@@jackdriscoll8387 have you seen Maniac ?
Well at least John Williams got an Oscar for Jaws! It’s one of 5 awards he received out of 53 nominations 🤯
How about Robert Shaw for best supporting actor FFS!
Mike Clifford thank you
He should've won for the Indianapolis speech alone!
Robert Shaw for Supporting Actor and Roy Scheider for Best Actor.
@@robertgouldshaw2041 Will the real robert shaw please stand up. Not you goof
@@94dfk1 Time has shown many what some of us knew at the time.
Thanks for uploading this i loved it
Steven was freaking handsome!
He was cute but became handsome in his mid 30s once grew the beard and a total fox in his 40s
Nominated for the Golden Globe, the BAFTA, and the DGA. Not the Oscar.....how?
Well, Ben Affleck still had it worse. He actually WON the Critics choice awards, the Golden Globe, Bafta and DGA but didn't get nominated for the oscar. Man he must have been pissed
Ron Howard too for Apollo 13.
A real robbery to one of the top greatest films ever made!!!!
So fascinating to see his reaction to the nominations in real time!
That was the mob guy from Rocky, right?
Yes it was.
Funny that Talia Shire was also in the same 3 movies :P
Bryson Johnson
YES!
I recognised him but couldn't for the life of me remember, thanks.
Yes he was he was the loan shark rocky worked for and a good friend to rocky . I loved when rocky went back to doing work in the gyms & gazzo was like u shouldnt be cleaning up spit plus ur Italian lol. Just love that he was looking out for another italian guy and have pride . Plus gazzo was at both his matches. He also played cici in godfather 1 & 2 . One of the button men who helped kill one of the heads of the 5 families. 4 great movies he was a nice highlight in. Plus he had a funny role in night shift with michael keaton.
He was in the Godfather as well
I love how humbly he introduces Jaws. It’s only one of the biggest and most iconic films of all time. But no, “I’ve just directed a movie called “Jaws”.” It’s like when Francis Ford Coppola introduced his little underground project “Mario Puzo’s The Godfather”.
incredible document.
"It's about time" is something that I would have said if I won an Oscar. Spielberg beat me to it 40 years earlier.
Thank you guys for the memmorable videos
this always cheers me up when i'm down. the hubris is incredible!
STEVEN SPIELBERG..............GREATEST CINEMA MAGICIAN - EVER !!!
What about John Frankenheimer? What about David Lean? What about Stanley Kubrick? It's a big stage....but Steven Spielberg can defintitely piss with the big boys. No doubt.
Spielberg's relationship with the directors branch of the Academy is an odd one. Although he has won for 1993 and 1998 - he has lost in 1977, 1981, 1982, 2005 and 2012. However with the Directors Guild of America he is a three time winner 1985, 1993 and 1998 and has a whopping 8 additional nominations 1975, 1977, 1981, 1982, 1985, 1987, 1993, 1997, 2005 & 2012.
He's the Meryl Streep of directing.
Consider it this way because he likes to make movies to appeal to the masses, people find it harder to say whether he deserves an award or not because you made a people like, yet that would mean your film doesn't raise questions or cover difficult and perhaps controversial stories. Spielberg is my favorite because he is likes to embrace positivity and that can mean sometimes makes stories with clear bad guys and clear good guys and the academy doesn't like that. They want to embrace movies that are complex. However, I think his stories are complex when you look at how the actors act and characters live in his worlds, in his movies, silence says a lot if not more than words, one person can mean the world a difference, and so on ... But becauae they're interwoven with intense and epic events of the story, that can be lost on people. Either way, award or not, he is one of the great directors of all time and like say Michael Jackson, he crosses barriers with his movies.
@@LPTV84 Great take on Spielberg. I agree, his movies appeal to the masses but often times, they look beyond what's on the surface and dig deeper into the fondness of our daily lives. ET is about divorce, for example.
He got nominated again for Best Director and Best Picture for his adaptation of West Side Story (2021).
Great find !
great footage
Hmmm.... I seem to recall an interview in which Spielberg gave credit to John Williams and his brilliant score for "saving my picture". JAWS was well-directed, but so were all of the other five which were nominated, and I can't think of a single one of them in which the director gave someone else credit for saving their film.
Rest in Peace Joe Spinell. Didn't know he passed away in 1989.
This is gold.
My favorite video of all time
I love steven's sense of humor.
videos like this are what make youtube awesome
LOL thats the Maniac
I wonder what Spielberg reaction was when he finally got the nomination two years later for Close Encounters of the Third Kind
He was holding a Kodak Super8 sound camera there for a bit, he put it down around the 2:45 mark. Always on task that Steven!
I love this video, so cool to see. What a standout year in film in a standout decade in film!
Wow those nominations are amazing I can't believe all those movies got released the same year
Steven Spielberg and his friends, Joe Spinell and Frank Pesce.
Sorry, Steven. But you had it difficult against those filmmaking titans. Those were definitely the days.
Altman didn’t deserve the nomination. His direction wasn’t as impressive as Spielberg’s in Jaws.
Jared Wignall if you said Fellini I sorta would have agreed with but Altman nope that man worked his ass off directing Nashville.
@@Jared_Wignall Nashville was the best among all the nominees.
joe spinell was the coolest guy on earth! no part to small for him , he made everything big! maniac !!!
Makes a good point about best director and best film. They essentially go hand in hand
I wish I got to hang out with him. He seems like a cool guy
It's a disgrace Spielberg didn't win best director for Jaws. He put so much work into one of the greatest films ever.
If not THE greatest film ever!
Oh,please. You've probably never even seen any of the other films nominated that year. Newsflash Foreman's perfect film One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest was better than your shark movie,which isn't even in Spielberg's top 5 movies.
I wouldn't be so harsh, but yeah Forman's work on Cuckoo's Nest was certainly worth recognition
Guy Simchony Kubrick and Fellini also deserved it more than Spielberg.
Matei Lascu Haven't seen any of those films, so I can't comment on that
If you think this was a Robbery, the director who was nominated Stanley Kubrick never won his entire life!
Juke Box Hero he did win one Academy Award: Best Visual Effects for 2001. He should’ve won Best Director at some point however.
I think there is something a little tongue in cheek about this, you can tell by the way he hyped it up at the start and had his friends there in Jaws and black-tie shirts, etc.
Jaws should've been nominated for: Best Picture, Director, Actor, Two Supporting Actors, Adapted Screenplay, Score, Sound, Art Direction, Cinematography, and Editing.
All amazing nominees!!
Now nobody can afford Steven Spielberg.. this man is film.
Where did you find this video? It's just AMAZING!!!
1:14 - the guy on the left is Frank Pesce who played the cigarette buyer in Beverly Hills Cop.
I thought that was him. He's also in Beverly Hills Cop 2, and Midnight Run.
Well...I think everyone knows Spiely is an absolute genius of cinema. He is a master of direction. And also, it seems, a very level, decent guy...a good man...and his yacht is so big he has to do three point turns on the Hudson river....yeah..he's done very well for himself. I love it when a good man does well and shines....
This is awesome for the footage of Joe Spinell!
This along with "The Color Purple" and "War Horse" are perfect examples on why the academy nominate some directors that dont have any chance at winning. Spielberg will always be the best.
anyone notice the guy in the JAWS shirt is the bookie Rocky works for who asks him the break the guy's thumbs lol
The screenplay definitely should’ve been nominated !
Everybody loves a winner but nobody loves a WINNER.
And nobody loves a whiner.
man the recording is so crisp
James Cameron knows that feel.
When the guy said “who made the best picture ever” I don’t think he understood how right he was
