"Hundreds of women have come up to me and said, 'It was because of watching Alice that I could get through another day with the baby in a high chair'." - Linda Lavin, born October 15, 1937. #LindaLavin

"Some people will of course accuse me of misanthropy and cynicism. I can't celebrate humanity but I'm not out to indict it either. I just want to expose certain truths." - Todd Solondz, born October 15, 1959. #ToddSolondz

"What is really important to me is a sense of humour and a mischief about life. Life is just too boring otherwise." - Mira Nair, born October 15, 1957. #MiraNair

BEST MUSIC 1984: "I was lucky Mozart was not eligible this year," said MAURICE JARRE as he accepted his Original Score Oscar for A PASSAGE TO INDIA, jokingly referring to the fact that his film was losing almost everything else to Milos Forman's Amadeus. Jarre previously won for Lawrence of Arabia (1962) and Doctor Zhivago (1965) and was nominated for Sundays And Cybele (1963), "Marmalade, Molasses and Honey" (The Life and Times of Judge Roy Bean, 1972), Mohammad Messenger of God (1977), Witness (1985), Gorillas In The Mist (1988) and Ghost (1990). He died in 2009. The Original Score Oscar was handed out for, at present, the last time, and was probably the only time you'd ever find Kris Kristofferson, Kermit The Frog and PRINCE in competition for the same award. The pop legend was the eventual winner for his PURPLE RAIN soundtrack, a movie that has little to offer beyond some truly superb songs. True to form, he ascended the stage dressed as a belly dancer and accompanied by a lovely entourage; this unforgettable star died, far too soon, in 2016. Another master of pop music found himself at the podium that night when the great STEVIE WONDER took the Best Song Oscar for his eternally successful hit song "I JUST CALLED TO SAY I LOVE YOU" from Gene Wilder's charming comedy THE WOMAN IN RED.
