That is an incredible group of performers - Arthur Kennedy not being as famous as the others but being such a respected stage actor and the original Biff Lohman in Death of a Salesman on stage and the very first John Proctor in The Crucible. Bogart, Marsh, Brando, Kennedy and Clift. Extraordinary.

Wow. Wonderful to hear Bogie speak as "himself". And what a roster of nominees - old Hollywood versus new - Brando and Clift both on the list. What a year that was for great work. If they had only known how Brando and Clift's 'method' approach would sweep everything else away in the coming years. A fascinating piece of archive.

I like how he just lets his arm drop with no appreciation nor regard for the statue. It was obvious that he didn't care for receiving it nor giving an acceptance speech. I read that he didn't care much for all the hoopla and awards. I also read that he used the statue for a door stop. He truly was an awesome actor and human being. R.I.P. Humphrey, we miss you.

The entire 1952 Oscar ceremony was not filmed in color, or for that matter, neither in its entirety in b&w. Just particular segments featuring the major awards, such as Bogart's in this color clip, which is an example of that era's color or black & white newsreels summarizing world events, with an off camera narrator describing the particular occasion, and which were shown nationwide on a weekly or semi-weekly basis in movie theatres before the " main feature ". Up until 1953, the Oscar ceremony was broadcast on coast to coast radio. " The 25th Academy Awards ceremony was held on March 19, 1953. It took place at the RKO Pantages Theatre in Hollywood, and the NBC International Theatre in New York City. It was the first Academy Awards ceremony to be televised, and the first ceremony to be held in Hollywood and New York City simultaneously. "

James Cagney had a similar situation where his only Oscar win was for the musical Yankee Doodle Dandy. Yet it was cool to see them both win for roles that would show they were capable of playing a different kind of character. For Bogart he became a Cockney cargo boat captain in WWI who at turns was drunk, cowardly, brave, resourceful, tender, and funny. Cagney would play real life entertainer and composer George M. Cohan and actually sang and danced, skills that were probably a surprise to moviegoers at the time. A favorite clip for many today is seeing Cagney tap dance his way down a large flight of stairs as an older Cohan.

Bogart's finest performance was in Treasure of the Sierra Madre.

Bogart was good in the movie!! But Brando and Clift delivered stellar performances that are now considered all time classics. What a year!

Brando- steetcar is the performance that changed acting and easily the most iconic and enduring of the 3 performances.

The Academy Awards were held in those days at the Pantages Theater in Hollywood. It was a movie theater and had a large seating capacity and if I recall, a balcony as well. I believe it is still there on Hollywood Blvd. It’s so great that this wonderful moment was captured on color film. This great actor was destined to die just a very few years later in January of 1957 from esophageal cancer at only 57 years old. Listen to the audience’s roar of approval when his name is announced. He faced some very stiff competition and the crowd was obviously pleased he had won.

All of those actors deserved the oscar.

Good to see this in colour film and not in kinescope.

Those were golden times in Hollywood. Such great talent and great people with class, manners, wit and charm, not to mention great beauty. Oh for those good old days.

So you would give anything to be an alcoholic and a coke addict? Because that's what they were. Their glamorized image of "classiness" was all fake.

His humbleness should be an example for today's actor, whose inflated egos and ignorance make them believe they can lecture us when they get an award.

Some think this was a "make-up Oscar" for Bogey and that he was better in other roles. Maybe true...but the more you watch African Queen the more you appreciate this unconventional "love story" of two people revealing their power, pride, flaws, and failings and their ultimate covenant to each other. Bogey is just brilliant in holding it on course, keeping it true, and not sliding into sentimentality. Such a well deserved award.

Hear that crowd roar. It's nice to see Humphrey overwhelmed with happiness.

I love how they talked back in the day...American english sounds like crap today.

Actors back then were trained in what was called mid Atlantic English, so a wider audience could understand them.

I am a non native speaker, and it is way easier to me to understand those mid century speeches than current ones. I can watch a classic movie without captions easily, but modern movies, without the aid of captions I'd miss 2/3 of what they say.

@Unkraut60 you mean southern accent? Ebonics is mainly based on southern accent

Glad I have TCM, so I can watch all these timeless classics.

The Oscars have always been about paying back for the mistakes they made in the past. No Oscar for Bogart in Casablanca meant the Academy spent several years trying to make it up to him. He should have won for the Caine Mutiny too which may be his greatest performance of all. But then Kathryn Hepburn made everyone around her seemingly perfect. Brando would have to wait this time but he'd get his opportunity too

He was great in the Caine Mutiny but I think his greatest performance was in the Treasure of the Sierra Madre (which he didn't even get an Oscar nomination for).

Katherine Hepburn could probably get a tree nominated by acting near it

I always thought that year should have been Marlon Brando's for A Streetcar Named Desire... just as I would've loved to see Bogart win for Casablanca. But well, it all worked out and they all got their recognition eventually!

Even in death always the epitome of class and stardom. He was literally raised this way from high society. That poise. That grace. Only Bogart.

I agree again. There was nobody cooler than Bogart in MALTESE FALCON (except for maybe Bogie in CASABLANCA). And as you pointed out, we can thank John Huston for giving him that role.

Love this! Just wish he had won again for "Caine Mutiny." If you've ever seen it, you'll know why I've never looked at strawberries in the same way again since I finally saw it last summer.

Happy to see Bogart win one. He was a gem of an actor IMO.

When all the nominees were worthy. All the films were worthy. Not like today’s crap.

Oh come on! I understand your point. But, this year, we had amazing films like The Father or Promising Young Woman. Don't understimate the recent gems

As an Egyptian, I recently watched Mr. Bogart in Sabrina, and on my way to watch Casablanca, and believe me, he gave me a very amazing impression with his unique voice, his looks, and his way of walking, and when he has a scene with the heroine, he can make you pay attention to what is happening in terms of events. He is really creative.

Sad he died and he was a kafir

My goodness what charm, style, elocution, breeding and beauty did Greer Garson possess? On par with Grace Kelly. No one today comes close.

Short and sweet. My favourite movie of his - The treasure of the sierra madre. Great actor, real Hollywood star. Classy production this oscars, not like a Bland or Gervais shambles.

So gracious to his director and his co-star.

He is bigger now then ever. Baca actually her book By myself 1979 opened my eyes too this very mysterious but interesting actor and man.

Greer Garson was an absolute doll. My grandfather sold shoes to her a million years ago and said she was adorable.

There was one actor who bears a remarkable resemblance to Humprey Bogart.But this was the real Bogart who finally won his Oscar for the "African Queen" in 1952 at the age of 52. Like Gary Cooper who won his for "High Noon",Bogart and his co star Katharine Hepburn had to endure hardships and difficulties filming in the Belgian Congo.It was a swampy area hot and humid and poor Bogart and Hepburn had to bear with with it.Imagine present day Hollywood actors and actresses doing such scenes.No way!

What a list of great movies and nominees...Brando was great as we all know but Clift was so underrated...he played complex characters with such nuance and style. What can one say about Bogey other than his best role was his last i believe...The Harder They Fall.

Bogie loved animals and was an acccomplished actor. Plus he has humor. For all those reasons, I worship him and feel terribly sad when I think of the way he died. Rest in peace my beloved Bogart.

Bogie did not 'choose' his way of death. People were unaware then that cigarettes were responsible for all sorts of illnesses. Anyhow if he enjoyed smoking, good for him, but he did not deserve such a cruel death.

Bogart was so natural I can't praise him enough.

Absolutely agree. Bogey's performance in Treasure of the Sierra Madre give was so outstanding and brilliant that it gives me goosebumps every time I think about it. So was The Big Sleep, Maltese Falcon and Casablanca.

Happy Birthday to the one and only Humphrey Bogart today! He had a very unique way to turn around. Bogie, a Hollywood legend, is still very much alive in our heart. He did that move in most of his movies, a special trademark. RIP. Thank you for your outstanding performances during that Golden Age of Hollywood.

He should have won again for THE CAINE MUTINY

The Golden Years of Hollywood. There is talent today, but not many are in the same league. You can watch any movie made in the 40s decade, and it will be terrific.

Truth Indeed

One of the greatest movie stars ever, second to noone, wish he would of lived much longer as well as Marilyn Monroe, so they can see how lauded they were and be given the non stop ovation they so richly deserve
