No, it was because he was older than most, and had done so many films. Clint got the same treatment a few years ago, Cagney before Wayne, and so it continues.
It’s like he would have said at his passing: “Well, good luck, folks. It’s been grand. Take care of the country. I’ve watched over you for the past 70-some years. This is as far as I can go.” We haven’t done too well without him, have we?
I was 3 in 1970 while watching this I thought how happy and classy and kind everyone is. When Gregory Peck said ballads are mailed in these days everything is done over the internet the old ways were the best ways. Most of these people are no longer alive but they lived in the best of times! Raquel Welch is absolutely stunning and Paul Newman so handsome. What a great era to live in so thankful to TH-cam to allow us to visit these moments and times.
maple1255. AND, WHEN the hosts, actors, and the whole presentation had class! That stupid, ridiculous ritual of asking them "who they are wearing" is just ludicrous!! ( Just to make those designers get their names out there, like the "average" person could wear their junk)!! And, wasn't it so much more decent not to see the morons tottering out on stage in those gross 5 inch stilleto heals!!? The awards shows have sunk to new lows. OH, and changing hosts every time when they are picking the bottom of the barrel....with no talent. And, another thing, get rid of the FEMALE announcers they have been using lately!! There is no reason to have had to go that route!!! Geez.....do women have to bitch about everything where a man has been doing a very acceptable job , just to pull that 'equality act?!
His critics are so ignorant of what he actually did and thought. I hate moronic people who just 'bandwagon' other peoples ideas. John Wayne was one of the most honest and trustworthy people in Hollywood.
It's depressing to watch this. These stars had more class in their little finger than all the so called stars of today. How much as a society we have fallen.

Presentation should always go with the current times with homage paid to the past. I liked the Seth McFarlane opening - fresh, not stiff, comedy weaved with some singing/dancing covering multiple art forms within the event. Also there's always room to mix old school meets new school.

The world is worse today and will get worse as time goes by.

This was one of those rare times of the AA trying to pick ONE greatest acting performance by a man when every single actor deserved their own Oscar. How in the world could anybody pick 'the best' performance between Sir Richard Burton, Sir Peter O'Toole, the phenomenal John Wayne, Superb Jon Voight and Dustin Hoffman? Duke should have gotten an Oscar long before True Grit, but on this night, they ALL deserved the best acting Oscar. Period.
Wayne should have received the Best Actor award for his leading performance in "The Searchers" in 1956, but neither the film nor Wayne were even nominated for an award -- undoubtedly one of the biggest oversights in Academy history. Yul Brynner won Best Actor for "The King and I," and the utterly forgettable comedy "Around the World in 80 Days" won Best Picture.
Shows the Oscars are a popularity contest and the voters are emotional people, just like the rest of us. You vote for what moves you at the time, not really for what is great or timeless. The winners lists show just that. Yes, the Searchers is amazing and John should have won his award for that, though True Grit is my all time favorite movies for so many reasons.
+Chas Don Yup, which is why we stopped watching them after Gregory Peck passed away. I once had the honor of meeting James Cagney while working in Newport Beach. The only thing greater than that is God Almighty. God bless you.
Between laughs, Bob Hope was critizysing the new path Hollywood was taking for example when he says," Today's we see in movies scenes that the French wouldn't put in post cards. Immorality and homosexuality were starting to be accepted without being censored.
Great Stars of Yesterday I miss them so much , great times great memories,.Burt Lancaster ,Alain Delon, Oliver Reed, Yul Brinner, Charles Heston, Richard Burton, John Wayne, Bogart,terrence Hill, Cagnie, Liz Taylor, Joan Crawford, Betty Davies, Claudia Cardinale , Sophiaothers and many othand thanks for the Memories:
Who doesn't?! Folk from this generation were much more complete individuals and nearly as mean-spirited as in 2014. Bob Hope was the KING of one-liners. He was a funny man if not always politically-correct. I think most from the Hope generation had some faith in the Most High or @ ;east strived to. Wow.
the movie stars from years ago, were so great, to me no movie now 2017, is worth watching. John Wayne, Marlon Brando, Clark Cable, James Stewart, Liz Taylor Natalie Wood and so many more , can't leave out Dean Martin, Robert Mitchum Gregory Peck. wow they are the best. I still watch the old movies. Love them so, still and ill always

Gregory Peck, one of the greatest U.S. actors ever, was a vocal critic of the war in Vietnam. To his credit, his son (Stephen) did not try to use his father's name to get out of service. Stephen Peck served in Vietnam in the 1st Marine Division from 1969 to 1970. So he was probably still in Vietnam while this aired.

This was just several months after the vicious Tate-LaBianca murders scared the hell out of everyone in Hollywood ... this is when filmmaking was truly an art in Hollywood, a glorious time for the art of movie-making. Gone now, probably forever.
Finally Bob Hope's writers delivered an "edgier" monologue than those of previous AA shows he hosted. (A number of "double-entendres" which they were able to get past the censors.) BTW notice the disclaimer at the start of the show by the network (4:18)
The beginning of the end for Hollywood. When stars were really stars, movies were really movies, acting was professional. No politics, no hatefulness, no nastiness. Just class. except for jane fonda.

Bob Hope And John Wayne Meeting On Stage To Bring Such A Great Beginning Of The Academy Awards And All The Rest That showed Up, Gosh The Academy's Are Just Not The Way They Were Back Then.
4:00 LIZA AND VINCENTE, Liza Minnelli absolutely deserved to win the Oscar for “The Sterile Cuckoo”, great to think that only three years later she would return and win the best actress Oscar for “Cabaret”
This is the time Tarantino's film Once Upon Time In Hollywood took place. Well, 1969 but the Manson murders were in August several months after the Academy Awards ceremony. They showed Brando in the black and white footage in the opening when he actually showed up at the awards. Midnight Cowboy is the start of classic films over the next several years with The Godfather arriving in 1972. The Sting in 1973. It was an amazing decade and Watergate was still just a hotel in Washington, DC.
I can't help but feel bad for the young generations today that they are growing up without real entertainment and class as I was so blessed to grow up watching. I hope someway, somehow some of the dignity and class will be recognized by the younger generations today.... Very sad times when compared to these amazing actors and actresses!
+marissa pierce Way more elegance involved back then. Now they have multiple talk show hosts stopping every woman asking 'who are you wearing'? Boring........yawn. Now entire show feels so forced desperate. The producers want to shock and get a laugh at the same time. Major fail always.
Today, the Dolby 🎭 is the 🏡 of the Academy Awards, and has been there since 2002. I just wish the Academy Awards could have a larger 90-piece orchestra conducted by Bridgit Mendler and a big opening number and a big closing number every year! In addition, Phillip Heyes could be the director and Bob Joles could be the announcer!
The new cinema was in and the jokes were a bit risqué for TV at that time. But the world had changed so drastically between from 65-68, it was just mind boggling. Duke Wayne got the biggest applause as did Fed Astaire & Myrna Loy, old Hollywood but for the contemporaries Liz Taylor as always trounced all of the other stars.
For those that don't get the reference: " The man in the Hathaway shirt". Was an advertising campaign , by Ogilvy and Mather ( still taught in business schools). The Hathaway shirt company model was given an eye patch in the print ads. It made him famous, and sold alot of shirts.
In tribute to John Wayne's Oscar-nominated role in "True Grit," award ceremony host Bob Hope wears an eye patch. In tribute to Michael Keaton's Oscar-nominated role in "Birdman," award ceremony host Neil Patrick Harris walks onstage in his underwear. Which one has more class?
That was so funny...it happened in 1974, the height of the streaking fad, and David Niven came up with one of the greatest one liners, (I'm paraphrasing here) "He certainly is showing us his short comings". A very classy way to joke about it, and it brought the house down.
What a fantastically well thought out presentation. Eye openingly informative of the changes that had taken place back then in those times. Things that were surprising to them, and not necessarily welcome. What would they say about today's society? and what even children can access on the internet?. I'm sure they would be totally appalled, and rightly so. After all they are awarding things that were meant to be of real and lasting value. All the great films were made long ago. Why has society turned to trash??

John, let me guess..you’re black and a homosexual. If you are it’s okay...it’s just not a big deal these days.
Back when there was still some class left in hollywood
It's still the exact same way...its just that today, the nastiness is reported!!!🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂💝
Right on. Now it's full of satanists & satanic rituals & pedophiles.
I have several friends who just left Hollyweird bc they're craxy!
Between laughs, Bob Hope was critizysing the new path Hollywood was taking for example when he says," Today's we see in movies scenes that the French wouldn't put in post cards. Immorality and homosexuality were starting to be accepted without being censored.
@@janbianucci3823 "Now it's full of satanists & satanic rituals & pedophiles"
Hasn't that always been the case?
You Got THAT Right!! No class now!
I have always been a huge Bob Hope fan, was so sad the day he died, but what a great person, actor, comedian, family man he was. Always in our hearts.
This was great!
1970 (1969 Oscar year) was a scandalous time!
Of course, little did they know how it would eventually become!
People were so loving back then- (look at the way they smile and touch each other)- sweet.
Great Stars of Yesterday
I miss them so much , great times great memories,.Burt Lancaster ,Alain Delon, Oliver Reed, Yul Brinner, Charles Heston, Richard Burton, John Wayne, Bogart,terrence Hill, Cagnie, Liz Taylor, Joan Crawford, Betty Davies, Claudia Cardinale , Sophiaothers and many othand thanks for the Memories:
As class continues to disappear from our world, this ceremony will continue to go downhill.
I miss Bob Hope, John Wayne, Gregory Peck, Gary Cooper......
Me too, hon. AMAZING TALENT!!
Who doesn't?! Folk from this generation were much more complete individuals and nearly as mean-spirited as in 2014. Bob Hope was the KING of one-liners. He was a funny man if not always politically-correct. I think most from the Hope generation had some faith in the Most High or @ ;east strived to. Wow.
Doesn't get better than that !
I agree. Miss those greats we don't have anymore. No one fills those shoes today. :)
Robert Novak BOOO!!!!!
Thanks for the memories
the movie stars from years ago, were so great, to me no movie now 2017, is worth watching. John Wayne, Marlon Brando, Clark Cable, James Stewart, Liz Taylor Natalie Wood and so many more , can't leave out Dean Martin, Robert Mitchum Gregory Peck. wow they are the best. I still watch the old movies. Love them so, still and ill always

Damn i miss the 70's wow what a blast it was to be a kid then not like these video game junkies of today!!!
I wish they would show all the Academy awards on a maybe a new channel called the awards channel showing awards shows in full from years gone by
I like that idea.
That 🥇 show-based digital subchannel would be called The 🥇 Channel, owned by Sinclair Broadcast Group.
I would definitely want some old Grammy Awards shows. Before 1985 of course
Thanks so much for the upload! I was reading about this award ceremony in Richard Burton’s diaries
"Vincent Minelli and his daughter Liza", Jane Fonda, Dyan Cannon. God, they (we) were so young then.
Gregory Peck, one of the greatest U.S. actors ever, was a vocal critic of the war in Vietnam. To his credit, his son (Stephen) did not try to use his father's name to get out of service. Stephen Peck served in Vietnam in the 1st Marine Division from 1969 to 1970. So he was probably still in Vietnam while this aired.
So glad you put this online!!
Bob, always a class act.
I miss the stars that has passed on. There will be no one who can fill their shoes.
❤for me John Wayne best still watch his films love xx
true class. unlike what is in display today
"Today, high noon would be about a lunch hour in a Junior High School".
Bob Hope was superbly funny! The Oscars used to be one of my favorite awards programs, but the quality of the show has deteriorated over the years.
Same with the so called music.Bruno Mars ,Lady Gaga andTaylor Swift are the only young talent.
its got pc just want a laugh
More like the quality of celebrities has declined.
@@oliviajohnjohnolivia8142 you call that talent????
He had 10 writers but had a great delivery and memory
Gonna get me one O them Color TVs one of these days .
One with a great big 19 in. screen
OW !!!
SOCK IT TO THEM , BOB
Haha we used to go look at the 25 inch Curtis Mathis tv s at Sears and be in. Awe
Class,which does not exists today!
I came for Gregory Peck, I stayed for Bob Hope!
A wonderful Hope monologue; I haven't laughed so heartily for many months!
The golden age of film from the 40's to the 70's.
Your so right. It went to crap in the 80s and its been downhill ever since.
Amen to that bro.
KIM NOVAK WAS BEAUTIFUL
+Frigide Barjot So was Roqey Welch!

00.31 is Joan Crawford.
Was this all Oscar-related footage? Not sure, but it's magical! Constance Bennet's de luxe Rolls-Royce town car makes a dramatic appearance!
The best of that list are Robert Taylor, Clark Gable, Frank Sinatra, Norma Shearer, Joan Crawford
Thank you for taking the time to post the times and actors it took a lot of effort on your part…
Getting to the end of the glory days of the Oscars. Love the black and white opening- such great stars.
Aaaahhhhh! The good old days!!
Those were the days, now they’ll never have any actor or actresses like that anymore!
How amazingly it was the view of the Oscars in the 1970. Now the world could see in real time from Los Angeles
This was just several months after the vicious Tate-LaBianca murders scared the hell out of everyone in Hollywood ... this is when filmmaking was truly an art in Hollywood, a glorious time for the art of movie-making. Gone now, probably forever.
I was 14 and my parents to were still alive and watching this. I’m sad
Finally Bob Hope's writers delivered an "edgier" monologue than those of previous AA shows he hosted. (A number of "double-entendres" which they were able to get past the censors.) BTW notice the disclaimer at the start of the show by the network (4:18)
The beginning of the end for Hollywood. When stars were really stars, movies were really movies, acting was professional. No politics, no hatefulness, no nastiness. Just class. except for jane fonda.
Hanoi jane
Climate change Jane
Just bigotry

Bob Hope And John Wayne Meeting On Stage To Bring Such A Great Beginning Of The Academy Awards And All The Rest That showed Up, Gosh The Academy's Are Just Not The Way They Were Back Then.
They were the a+ list
4:00 LIZA AND VINCENTE, Liza Minnelli absolutely deserved to win the Oscar for “The Sterile Cuckoo”, great to think that only three years later she would return and win the best actress Oscar for “Cabaret”
The Sterile Cuckoo is good and Lisa's good in it but Jane Fonda should have won for They Shoot Horses Don't They.
Oh man, seeing a more spry James Earl come out near the beginning was nice.
This is the time Tarantino's film Once Upon Time In Hollywood took place. Well, 1969 but the Manson murders were in August several months after the Academy Awards ceremony. They showed Brando in the black and white footage in the opening when he actually showed up at the awards. Midnight Cowboy is the start of classic films over the next several years with The Godfather arriving in 1972. The Sting in 1973. It was an amazing decade and Watergate was still just a hotel in Washington, DC.
This Oscar ceremony took place on April 7, 1970 to honor the films of 1969.
I can't help but feel bad for the young generations today that they are growing up without real entertainment and class as I was so blessed to grow up watching. I hope someway, somehow some of the dignity and class will be recognized by the younger generations today.... Very sad times when compared to these amazing actors and actresses!
The beautiful and elegant Dorothy Chandler Pavilion in Los Angeles was the best place to hold the Academy Awards.
+marissa pierce Way more elegance involved back then. Now they have multiple talk show hosts stopping every woman asking 'who are you wearing'? Boring........yawn. Now entire show feels so forced desperate. The producers want to shock and get a laugh at the same time. Major fail always.
Today, the Dolby 🎭 is the 🏡 of the Academy Awards, and has been there since 2002. I just wish the Academy Awards could have a larger 90-piece orchestra conducted by Bridgit Mendler and a big opening number and a big closing number every year! In addition, Phillip Heyes could be the director and Bob Joles could be the announcer!
The new cinema was in and the jokes were a bit risqué for TV at that time. But the world had changed so drastically between from 65-68, it was just mind boggling. Duke Wayne got the biggest applause as did Fed Astaire & Myrna Loy, old Hollywood but for the contemporaries Liz Taylor as always trounced all of the other stars.
Still pissed about missing Marcus Welby that week ;)
lol 😂
...Fred and Elizabeth received the most applause, and justifiedly so.
What a classy, romantic time in Hollywood!!i miss that style!!
Hands eye patch to Wayne --- "Here, go out and sell a few shirts." Too funny! 11:47
For those that don't get the reference: " The man in the Hathaway shirt". Was an advertising campaign , by Ogilvy and Mather ( still taught in business schools). The Hathaway shirt company model was given an eye patch in the print ads. It made him famous, and sold alot of shirts.
In tribute to John Wayne's Oscar-nominated role in "True Grit," award ceremony host Bob Hope wears an eye patch. In tribute to Michael Keaton's Oscar-nominated role in "Birdman," award ceremony host Neil Patrick Harris walks onstage in his underwear. Which one has more class?
+Bruce Jackson HOPE, always.
In late 60's, or early 70's a streaker ran in front of David Niven as he was starting to tell who who was nominated for what.
That was so funny...it happened in 1974, the height of the streaking fad, and David Niven came up with one of the greatest one liners, (I'm paraphrasing here) "He certainly is showing us his short comings". A very classy way to joke about it, and it brought the house down.
Peck could narrate anything. A great actor and human being!
I miss them all.
Bob Hope & John Wayne; laugh-out-loud funny & not a dirty word. Just don't make them like that anymore.....
thank you again!!
Elizabeth Taylor was beautiful!
I miss glamour could we please bring it back❤
What a fantastically well thought out presentation. Eye openingly informative of the changes that had taken place back then in those times. Things that were surprising to them, and not necessarily welcome. What would they say about today's society? and what even children can access on the internet?. I'm sure they would be totally appalled, and rightly so. After all they are awarding things that were meant to be of real and lasting value. All the great films were made long ago. Why has society turned to trash??
The opening announcer is Hank Simms.
thank you
Marcus Welby Will Return Next Week At 10/9 Central Time, The Dick Cavett Show Will Return Tomorrow Night At 11:35/10:35 Central Time, On Most Of These ABC Television Stations.
Who was the announcer at the beginning?
Dana Long That Was Ed Chandler, A Staff Announcer For ABC Based Out Of Hollywood.
In other words: "Marcus Welby, M.D. and The Dick Cavett Show will not be seen tonight so that we may bring you LIVE color coverage of 42nd Annual Awards of The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences."
Pure class not like the so called stars of today 2018
When America was a truly great country.
Well, depends what you thought of the president (Nixon) at the time...
Duke was the only actor who truly deserved his oscar. Although he should have won for red river and the searchers.
I also really liked him in The Shootist.
A eeddObscure Entertainment
Obscure Entertainment and don t foget he had his left lung removed for cancer in 1964 so true grit the performance and the oscar appearance were on one lung. After he lost his lung he cut his smoking in half
He was a racist.
Mark Harrison Really?!!
