"He can't be with us tonight he's preparing his new film" Called 'The Working Class Goes To Heaven', yes a movie deeply concerned about the working class, filled with Marxist themes and an acute analysis of all philosophies of socialism, emphasizing the struggle of the worker and how theory and politics are inefficient at alleviating his burden and the need for radical change. That same director won an Oscar in the anti-communist, red-scared, coldwar USA. I'm happy for Petri, he's one of yhe best directors in the world but it was a weird award. The winning movie ( Investigation of a Citizen ) in itself was anti-police, denouncing the ludicrous corruption that can make its way into every part of the body of justice. And it features Gian Maria Volonté, one of the best actors who ever lived, who also portrayed Bartolomeo Vanzetti in "Sacco e Vanzetti" a movie denouncing the USA's trial of Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti, trialed and executed for a murder they didn't commit because they were anarchists.

That film is a true masterpiece, and Moreau knew it.

Difatti di Indagine su un cittadino al di sopra di ogni sospetto si parla ancora oggi, mentre di quel film francese Hoa Binn nemmeno l'ombra.

La presentatrice era molto entusiasta nel annunciare il titolo del film..

La presentatrice, una certa Jeanne Moreau.

And the actor who plays Clemenza in ''The godfather'' was like: '' Ehy, I told you, Italy always wins.''

This movie was amazing... I was stunned at how amazing it was :))))

Should have won Best Picture. Better than any of the nominees that year.

è più d’un evidente capolavoro; è un trattato socio-antropologico senza pari

Nice audience shots of Fernando Rey (great actor who appeared in nominated film Tristana) and Max Schell (who directed nominated film First Love).

Leslie Caron looking beautiful as ever!

The movies were great all three of them, and i saw clamenza in the video few rows below them he is great.

I love the way Jeanne grabs her like "come on, let's get some pictures" 😂

Luminous Leslie and Jazzy Jeanne. What could be better???

G. M. Volontè era "indesiderato" negli U.s.a....

In realtà sia petri che volontè per una questione ideologica avevano rifiutato di partecipare alla manifestazione. La Bolkan sapeva ma non pensava possibile che i due avrebbero rinunciato all' oscar. Quando in brasile vide una sconosciuta a prendere l' oscar al suo posto fi infuriò non poco

Viva Italia!

meritava un'oscar solo x le musiche di Ennio Morricone.... Hanno fatto proprio bene a snobbare l'accademia!

Jean Moreau couldn't be disappointed about the winning of Italy comparing to the other "pathetic"(no offence) movies nominated, except Tristana that was effettively a good movie, but not at the level of this masterpiece. I'm sad about her reaction because the past year a masterpiece of the french production won the same Oscar for a similar movie(Always on investigation).

I think what really happened to Jean Moreau, is that she was uncomfortable reading the long title in English

And to think, American audiences were deprived of this masterpiece on video for over 73 years until Criterion finally got on the ball and released it.

Don Luis Buñuel is one of the greatest filmmakers of all time, but If Tristana is a great movie, Indagine su un cittadino al di sopra di ogni sospetto is a masterpiece. I believe Jeanne Moreau cheered on Tristana because, directed by Buñuel, she starred in Le journal d'une femme de chambre. Moreover Tristana was played by a french actress, Catherine Deneuve. In my opinion that is why Moreau was disappointed with the academy's decision

Leslie Caron deserves an Honorary Oscar I think, even maybe more so than Doris Day and Maureen O'Hara.

What an extraordinary movie ! Cinecittà was at the top of its game back then. I understand director Elio Petri and star Gian Maria Volontè couldn't come to the USA to pick up their so well-deserved Oscar since they were both members of the Italian Communist Party, but why not screenwriter Ugo Pirro, since he left the party in 1956 (after the events in Hungary) ? Ah, anyway.

There needs to be a remake of this movie

Let's not be hateful towards our french brothers, the reason why this movie was snobbed by the academy is because Elio Petri and Gian Maria Volontè were communists and proud of it

Ma che c'azzecca Leslie Caron col film?

who is the guy at 0:55?

Watch at the 7 second mark as Ricardo seems to shove Jeanne off of his mark.

A quei tempi la superiorità del cinema italiano non era in discussione. Non a caso, Petri e Volonté avevano poco tempo per cerimonie semi-serie, visto che si era nel pieno della "trilogia del potere"; film estremi nella tecnica registica, negli interpreti e nelle sinistre quanto indimenticabili colonne sonore. Odiati dai politicanti ciarlatani, ma amatissimi da noi semplici cinofili.

Italians are never disappointed when someone really deserves an award, even if they are in competition. I'm proud to be italian.

Jean Moreau, I thought she was a good actress but she totally failed in concealing her disappointment when she read an ITALIAN film got the prize... Well obvious rudeness, she was French...
