All language subtitles for Feud - 01x05 - And the Winner Is... (The Oscars of 1963).KILLERS.English.C.orig.Addic7ed.com

_

Dateline:
Hollywood, California.

Tinseltown readies itself
for its grandest of nights.

The Academy Awards.

This year's Oscars promises
to be an absolute nail-biter

between favorites Lawrence of Arabia

and The Music Man.

But the real trouble in River City,

and the race everyone is talking about

is the contest to see

who will be crowned Best Actress.

Here's icy beauty Lee Remick,

nominated for her turn as
Jack Lemmon's boozy bride.

Skipping the wine and
sticking to roses, Lee?

Kooky Anne Bancroft,

who brought her inimitable
Annie Sullivan to the screen

in Arthur Penn's The Miracle Worker,

will be working a miracle herself

to make the curtain in her
latest Broadway triumph.

Golden Globe winner Geraldine
Page out walking her pooch.

Will Oscar follow the Globe's lead

and give Tennessee Williams' latest muse

Hollywood's highest honor?

With her ninth nomination,

screen legend Katharine Hepburn

will not be making a Long Day's Journey

to the West Coast this year,

as she plans once again to
sit out the festivities

in her Connecticut hideaway.

But all the Vegas oddsmakers

say the smart money is on Bette Davis.

It's an honor just to be nominated...
again.

Miss Davis, do you have any
comment on the Academy

snubbing your costar, Joan Crawford?

- Define "snub."
- Next question.

One thing's for sure...

no matter who wins, history will be made

in three weeks when Frank Sinatra

hosts the 35th Academy Awards.

♪

The 1963 Oscars.

I have to say that's when
things took such an ugly turn.

Not that everything

was sunshine and
lollipops up until then,

but it was the Academy Awards that year

when it became the point of no return

for both Bette and Joan.

I truly believed that the ladies

would put aside their
natural personal enmity,

but there were so many
people who profited

from them being at each other's throats.

The studio, the publicity people,

and of course, the columnists.

I know firsthand.

Unscrupulous reporters did
everything they could

to sow hatred

between myself and my own sister.

The actress Joan Fontaine
is your younger sister.

Well, she's not that
much younger, but yes.

So there is no feud

between you two?

A feud implies

continuing hostile conduct

between two parties.

I can't remember an instance

where I instigated hostile behavior.

You refused
to speak to her backstage

after your 1947 Oscar win.

You're referring

to that photo of me in
Photoplay magazine.

I wasn't turning my back on
my sister in that photo.

I just didn't see that she was there.

It's hard to imagine

the pressure the Academy
Awards puts on one.

Which brings us back

to Bette and the other Joan.

Well, it all started, I remember,

with the nominations.

And understandably, Joan was hurt,

because she was snubbed.

Unfortunately, dear Bette,

wasn't about to offer her any solace.

But Joan, being a fighter,

wasn't about to let one tiny detail

like not being nominated push
her out of the limelight.

The very day of the nominations,

Joan marched herself down to
the Motion Picture Academy

and demanded to see Mr. Wendell Corey,

the president of the Academy.

Mr. Corey.

Joan Crawford's headed this way

and she's not slowing down.

Joan, I can promise you,

the vote tally is beyond reproach.

The people at Price Waterhouse
are honest to a fault.

Wendell, I'm confident
under your stewardship

that everything here at the
Academy is above board.

I wish all the worthy nominees

good luck and Godspeed.

I'm here to offer my services.

As it turns out, I'm available
to present this year.

Either Best Picture or Best Director.

You decide which.

Oh, well, that's...

that's very generous.

Of course I'm going to
require a few things.

I'd appreciate it

if the Academy could pay
for my hair and makeup.

And, of course, provide
a car and a chauffeur.

Well, we don't do that for presenters.

You will for me.

I believe if Bette had said

to even one reporter

that she regretted Joan
not getting a nod,

all that unpleasantness
would have gone away.

She came across as cold

and unsympathetic to some,

but really she was nervous.

Terribly so.

Bonsoir. I have
a person-to-person call

for Mademoiselle de Havilland
from Mademoiselle Davis.

Oh. Yes, of course, operator.

Bette.

Livvie. I have no idea
what time it is there.

Did I wake you?

No, not at all. I was just reading

what passes as a script for a
new movie they've offered me.

Anything in it for me?

Not unless you want to
play a wino or a hoodlum.

The title alone makes
me want to shudder.

Lady in a Cage.

Just sounds so awful.

Awful!

And if you don't snap it up, I will.

I doubt very much indeed

that it will bring you
your fourth Oscar.

Don't jinx me, I haven't
won the third one yet.

You will.

In only a few weeks time, too.

You know I'll be pulling for you.

Pulling for me? You're going to
be sitting right next to me.

Oh, you can't really expect
me to travel all that way

for an award show.

You bet your ass I can.

Oh, Livvie, you have no idea
what they've been saying

about me in the press.

About you and Joan, you mean.

Christ, is it in the French papers, too?

In any language, all they want

is a catfight.

You have to stop giving it to them.

I know.

I should be kinder, I want to be,

but she sets me off.

I know the impulse well.

But two words:

"No... comment."

Easy for you to say; my Joan
is far worse than your Joan.

Not possible.

You know what my bitch sister
has taken to telling the press?

That I broke her collarbone
when we were children.

Can you imagine?

And the press...

just gobbles it up.

Monsters.

Livvie, you have to come.

The goddamn Hollywood press,

they won't be able to say shit about me

if there's another woman
of comparable stature

supporting me.

Comparable to Joan's stature, you mean.

What else would I mean?

Bette was never easy.

But I know she respects me.

We both have two Oscars,

and she knew that winning another one

didn't matter that much to me,

so I wasn't competition
to her, I suppose.

I was never a threat.

In her mind, I was always Melanie Wilkes

to her Scarlett O'Hara.

Of course, I really was Melanie Wilkes.

Her third Oscar.

You always did stink at math,
Joanie, not a third Oscar.

Her tenth nomination, her eighth loss.

That's the way you got to think of it.

But she is the odds-on favorite.

Well, that's because
this town loves nothing more

than to bestow titles.

And they're just itching

to give that old nag the triple crown.

But we're going to see
she doesn't get it.

How?

Mm. Easy.

There are, as of now,
655 Academy members

in your peer group that'll be
casting a vote for Best Actress.

We just have to get to,
say, a hundred of them,

and we can tip this thing.

You mean actually lobby
the Academy members

to vote against her?

Why not?

Well, because it will be seen as

sour grapes on my part.

And that's why you have
to stay squeaky clean.

You let me poison the well.

You're gonna serve up

nothing but rainbows and moonbeams.

Get out your phone book.

We're gonna play a little game
I learned from Jack Webb,

"Good cop, bad cop."

I'll put the word out on Davis.

You plump up the other nominees.

Well, who do you think is
her closest competition?

Well, they're not gonna give
it to that buzzard Hepburn.

She's never once showed
up to the ceremony.

I'll bad-mouth her a little bit, too.

Her and those slacks.

Remick's no threat; they
all still think of her

as a television actress.

Push for Page or Bancroft.

Lean on the "Hollywood reaches
out to Broadway" angle.

One of them gets it, it'll
sting her even more.

You hate her more than I do.

I find her vulgar.

Besides, she thinks
we're all hypocrites.

Aren't we, though, Hedda?

Well, of course we are,

but I'm not gonna be judged for it,

not by her.

Hypocrisy is the tribute
vice must pay to virtue.

You've always understood that.

She never has.

The only reason

the rest of the country allows
this Babylon to stay standing

is because it believes
we have a conscience.

And for 30 years, I have
been that conscience.

And I gave up everything for it.

My career as an actress, my marriage,

my dream of having many children.

What has she sacrificed? Nothing.

Well, then, let's make some calls.

Chuck, it's Hedda.

I just had to call and say how
much I loved you in El Cid,

how I adore a man in a leather skirt.

Oh, I thank you, Doris.
That's very sweet of you.

But I really wasn't
expecting one this year.

Oh, but I was thrilled to see
Geraldine Page get nominated.

Weren't you?

Yes, a concussion.

She kicked her right in the head twice.

Joan would have been
well within her rights

to file assault charges.

Well, I was lucky enough to see
Miss Bancroft play it onstage.

And do you know, Loretta,

her Annie Sullivan seemed
even more blind on-screen.

Why should she have three?

You know, the one they gave her

for Dangerous she uses as a doorstop?

Mm. Her bathroom. Can you believe it?

That poor Oscar has to watch
that woman go to the toilet.

No, Anne Bancroft is
absolutely brilliant.

Love to you, Cary.

It's no use.

What are you talking about?

It's a fool's errand.

She's already won.

Joan.

No, I don't mean today
or on Oscar night.

I have been in competition

with that goddamn woman
my entire career.

A constant battle.

For men, for roles, for magazine covers.

And I don't know why.

I was the bigger star.

My leading men were more attractive.

My pictures made more money.

And yet I was always
made to feel inferior.

After years of working so hard to be

an ambassador for Hollywood,
to be part of this community,

while she gives the industry the finger

from her moldy home in Connecticut.

And yet, when presented
with the opportunity,

they nominate her... instead of me.

It's so fucking humiliating.

I think you've had
enough of that iced tea.

No, I mean it, Hedda.

Something inside me broke

when they announced those nominations.

Not because I was counting on it

or because I hoped that it would ensure

a few more precious years of work.

It was beyond that.

Whatever self-confidence
I had left was gone.

She leeched it out of me!

Hmm.

Oh, God, I can't believe I said I
would present at those awards.

I don't know what I was thinking.
I can't

go to that awards show.

I can't show my face anymore.

Joan, you are going to those awards.

We can get you your
self-confidence back.

I don't see how.

I'll tell you how.

She may have been the
one who was nominated,

but as God as my witness,

that woman is not going
to walk off that stage

with the Oscar for Best Actress,

because you are.

Well, gee, don't get up or anything.

Hello.

Gerry?

Is this Miss Geraldine Page?

It is. Rip, turn that down.

I can't hear.

This is Joan Crawford, dear,

calling from Hollywood, California.

It's Joan fucking Crawford.

Joan Crawford

Gerry?

Miss Crawford, how may I help you?

I just want to say right up front

that I was not upset.

Upset?

Why would you be upset?

With the performance
you were nominated for

in Sweet Bird of Youth.

The faded movie queen swanning about.

Oh, I think we

all know who that was based on, dear.

Oh, no, Miss Crawford.

Mr. Williams created that role.
I was just...

No, I was flattered, Gerry.

Really I was.

You got it so close to perfect.

Although I would never
date a man under 40.

Not enough money to keep
this lady happy.

Uh-huh.

What does she want?

Was there something you
needed, Miss Crawford?

No, I just wanted to say
congratulations, Gerry.

I mean, with so many wonderful
performances this year

and only five nominations,

I was so glad to see you get recognized.

Thank you.

Can you believe it's
only two weeks away,

and I haven't even cut out potatoes yet.

Potatoes?

Those television cameras

are many times more punishing

than the motion picture cameras.

Who's doing your gown?

My gown?

I hadn't really thought about my gown.

Well, of course, you
have many fine options

out there in New York.

But you want to be
fitted here the day of.

May I suggest Edith Head?

Really, there is no one better, dear.

I could speak to her for
you, and then, if you like,

I could personally help
you select your jewels.

That is awfully generous of
you, Miss Crawford, really,

but I think I'm gonna
try and keep it simple.

Don't forget, Gerry.

You're representing Hollywood.

I mean, this broadcast will
be seen all over the world.

People depend on us to
brighten their ordinary lives

with a little glamour.

Well, if their lives
depend on my glamour,

I've got some bad news for them.

Well... it really is too
stressful, isn't it,

dear?

Lord knows the year I was nominated

for Mildred Pierce, I was

too nervous to attend.

No, I stayed home and faked pneumonia.

And do you know what?

They brought the Oscar to me.

And in a way, it was more
intimate, more of an honor.

Is that what you think I should do?

Stay home?

Well, I could accept it for you.

It's just down the road from me,

and I have to be there anyway.

I'll say lovely things,

and you can watch from the comfort

of your New York one-bedroom.

Oh.

Sure... Miss Crawford.

You are welcome to accept
the award on my behalf.

Really?

Well, if that's what you want.

Just send me a list of people to thank.

Let's try to keep it to three names.

Short and sweet, in my
opinion, is the best.

I will do that.

Wonderful.

All my love to you, Gerry.

Miss Crawford?

Well...

good news.

I'm not going to make you
put on a tux this year.

You're actually gonna let
that high-strung show pony

represent you at the Oscars?

Well, she needs it.

And besides,

Hollywood should be forced to look

at what they've done to her.

Annie,

you have a visitor.

Joan Crawford.

Joan Crawford caught the performance?

Sure. Pull the other one, Lydia.

I'm serious. She's right
outside the door.

Well, hell, show her in.

Miss Crawford.

What an honor.

I just had to pop back

and tell you what an
astonishing performance

you gave tonight, and
to a half-empty house.

That really is dedication.

Well, thank you.

You theater gals.

I don't know how you do it.

Night after night, weekends,

matinees.

Oh, it must be terribly
taxing on your voice.

I drink a lot of tea.

Smart.

I was so looking forward
to seeing you next week

at the Academy Awards.

But I read in Dorothy Kilgallen's column

that you won't be attending?

I'm afraid not. I can't.

I'd have to miss three performances,

and I just couldn't do that

to the people who paid to see the show.

It's either the work or
the reward, you know.

So you're not mad at our
little movie colony?

I know they gave that Shirley MacLaine

your part in Two for the Seesaw.

Well, I heard that movie stank.

To high heaven.

Good.

Can I offer you a drink?

No, no, no, no. Please, let me get it.

I also understand that
you have requested

young Patty Duke to accept
your prize should you win.

Yeah, but because she's nominated, too,

the Academy put the kibosh on that idea.

Well, that seems silly.

It's probably for the best, though.

What if I were to win for
Best Actress, and Patty lost

for Supporting?

I'd hate to put the kid through that.

But, between you and me,

I think she's going to win.

Yes, I think she is, too.

And my sixth sense tells me

that you are going to win also.

Wouldn't that be something?

Yes, it certainly would.

The blind leading the blind.

Miss Crawford...

did you fly all the way here to ask

if you could accept my award for me?

No. No, but I certainly
would be happy to...

But would it make you happy?

Desperately.

Well, then I really hope I do win.

I'd be honored to have
someone of your stature

accept on my behalf.

Thank you.

I'm sorry.

I really must go now.

I have a dinner engagement in an hour.

It was lovely to meet
you, Miss Crawford.

Yes, and you, too.

Thank you.

Joan?

Hmm?

Davis may have had the flashier role,

but you made that movie work.

I really admired what you did.

Good.

The jewels and the gown have
been approved by Miss Crawford.

You know where to
carefully lay them out.

Upstairs. She just woke up.

Move, move, move. Do
not speak, just work.

That goes for everyone here.

Do not address Miss Crawford
unless she speaks to you first.

And pick up the pace.

It is Oscar day.

"Dearest Bette,

"good luck tonight. You deserve to win.

Jack Warner."

"Bette, take home the gold.

"We are so proud of you.

Ronnie and Nancy Reagan."

Oh.

You're a shoo-in to win, Miss Davis.

Everybody thinks so.

So it seems.

Edith Head gave me this idea.
Everything in silver.

Like a silver Oscar.

I think silver's

so much more elegant
than gold, don't you?

Did you know

Edith already has seven Oscars?

And you have two?

Not yet.

Okay,

time to go.

Hair.

How do I look?

You look beautiful.

Like the first frost of fall.

Like Sonja Henie in one of those...

winter wonderland skating pictures.

Very funny.

Mr. Cukor, will you do the honors?

With pleasure.

You are one of my oldest friends.

We have known each other for 40 years,

and I have never bullshitted you.

Now, there's something
I want to say to you,

and you need to listen.

Don't do this.

Do what?

Try and take it from her.

The night.

It'll be seen in all quarters
for exactly what it is:

a petty act of revenge
from a woman scorned.

If she doesn't
win, you'll get bad press.

Better than no press.

These people will never
work with you again.

Davis, Aldrich...

Good.

Joanie, you're bigger than this.

No, I'm not.

Christ, you always look better than me.

Drink?

Let's get one there.

Our chariot awaits.

Bette, what happened to this one?

Did all the gold plating fall off?

Rubbed off, you mean.

Every night when I watch
television in bed, I hold it.

He's the perfect companion.

He doesn't talk back. He listens.

He's patient.

And sometimes,

when I need it,

he reminds me of that perfect night

when I won him...

and the whole world...

stood up and cheered.

And I was loved.

God, that's sad.

Actually,

as a woman heading toward
her second divorce,

I get it.

I get it completely.

Let me visit the powder room

and we'll be on our way.

Wait up for me, boys.

Tonight I'm bringing you
home a baby brother.

The Academy of Motion Picture
Arts and Science presents...

its 35th annual achievement awards.

These people, like most
of us, are movie fans.

They've come from all over the country,

here to the Pacific Auditorium
in Santa Monica, California,

to get a glimpse of their
favorite movie actors,

as the most famous faces in the world

arrive to attend Oscar's
coming out party.

Look, there's Jack Lord of Stoney Burke.

Eva Marie Saint.

There's little Patty Duke.

There's Lee Remick with
husband Bill Colleran.

There's Bob Stack and Mrs. Stack.

And Gregory Peck, a nominee
for his work this year

as Atticus Finch in To
Kill a Mockingbird.

And there's Miss Bette Davis,

nominated tonight for her performance

in What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?

Miss de Havilland,
is is true you flew out

from Paris to present the
award for Best Picture?

I will present that award,
but I traveled here

to be with my dear friend, Bette.

I'm here to see her be the first
actress to win three Oscars.

She's the greatest.

And the industry owes her this.

What do you say to that, Miss Davis?

I'm not ashamed to admit I want this.

There's screen
legend Joan Crawford.

She'll be presenting the Oscar
tonight for Best Director.

Miss Crawford, Miss Crawford.

Your Baby Jane costar, Bette Davis,

is nominated for Best Actress tonight.

Who did you vote for?

The winner.

Set the cold cuts right there

on that table.

Get that vodka open

for the guests.

What about the centerpiece?

Just move it.

Miss Crawford.

Stan,

how lovely to see you. How
are Judy and the children?

Miss Crawford, I'm sorry, but you cannot

turn the greenroom into your own

private party. It's
against Academy bylaws.

Light me.

Drink.

Have a lovely evening.

Mamacita,

touch up.

Now, the nominees
for Best Achievement

in Art Direction for a
Color Production are...

Oh, Jesus Christ, this night.

What a fool, to care about
anything this much or want

anything this much.

Hey, Bette, sit down.

Meredith Willson's Music Man.

Look at me.

Art direction by Paul Groesse.

Take a breath.

You are going to win.

The crown is yours.

And so is the record.

by George W. Davis...

What did I ever do to deserve you?

When we were young,

you were one of the
first to make me feel

I was more than a pretty face.

You showed me how to fight.

And, boy, did you fight for me
at the beginning of my career.

And now here you are,

fighting for me at the end of mine.

Oh, don't be so maudlin.

Here we are at the top of Mount Olympus,

and all you want to do is jump off.

This is supposed to be a celebration.

Well, then, where's the booze?

I think Frank must've drunk it all.

Come on, then. Let's go to the greenroom

and get ourselves some
proper swamp water.

You don't want to go there.

Why not?

My goodness,

an Oscar winner at 17.

The only way to go is down.

So, then, you are

the youngest Academy Award winner

in history, is that right?

That's what they tell me.

- What's your pup's name?
- Bambi.

She's my good luck charm.

Well, I'll say.

You know, dear,

it isn't ladylike

to bring a pet to the Academy Awards.

The winner...

is France for Sundays and Cybele.

Good luck.

Miss Crawford? Your category is next.

Best Director? You're presenting?

Oh, yes. Thank you.

Right this way.

How much longer till my category?

About ten minutes.

I can't believe it.

I just cannot believe it.

I'm in utter shock.

Double-fisting it, Bette?

No, John, these are not both for me.

This one is mine, and
this one is to throw

in Crawford's face the
next time I see her.

Could have made history.

Coulda, woulda, shoulda.

You still can.

Really, Livvie?

In what part? In what picture?!

I'm sorry.

I just...

I just thought for a moment...

that I was back in the game.
