Clark Gable had threatened to boycott the Oscars if Hattie McDaniel wasn't allowed to sit with her co-stars from GWTW, but Ms McDaniel persuaded him not to. What a class act they both were.
@Hailphage3 жыл бұрын
It wasn't the Oscars, it was the film's premiere in Atlanta that McDaniel (and her black co-stars) were prevented from attending that Gable threatened to boycott (as you say McDaniel managed to persuade him to attend the premiere). Unfortunately the Oscars weren't much better, McDaniel was allowed to attend but she was forced to sit on a separate table at the back of the room with her escort.

The year of 1939 is actually widely considered to have been the best ever in movies. Apart from Gone With The Wind and The Wizard Of Oz, there was Ninotchka, Goodbye Mr.Chips, Wuthering Heights, The Women, Mr.Smith Goes To Washington, Stagecoach, Of Mice and Men and many others. Then there's 1946, generally thought of as the second best year in movies.

The 1939 Academy Awards had many historic and memorable moments. The movies and actors are still mentioned today. The Wizard of Oz, Gone With the Wind and Mr. Smith Goes To Washington are still icons. While not as popular, Goodbye, Mr. Chips was a very touching movie. The performances by Hattie McDaniel, Bettye Davis, R. Stewart, Mr. Donat and Clark Gable were superb.

As someone who has seen Gone with the Wind many times, I do believe that Olivia de Havilland objectively had a better performance/role than Hattie McDaniel.

It's just an unfortunate coincidence that it's only happened with Halle Berry so far. There will be chances in the future for more wins by black women in a leading role.
