Best Supporting Actor | 1970 | Paul
Paul Mazursky was nominated for Best Supporting Actor for his performance in this film. He directed himself.
The first time Ellen Burstyn was cast as Ellen Burstyn instead of Ellen McCrea or Ellen MacCrea.
Ellen Burstyn's first film directed by Paul Mazursky. Her second was 'Harry & Tonto' (1974).
At the beginning of the film the camera angles hide which studio Alex pulls into, but the Irving Thalberg Building indicates that it's MGM.
Although not biographical, Alex's character was probably based on Mazursky's fellow director Hal Ashby.
"Alex Morrison: How old is Cherie? Andre: I dunno, she says she's 19. Alex Morrison: Alright. Andre: I think she's 16. Alex Morrison: Is she a good lay? Andre: Terrible. Andre: Why terrible? Andre: She says it hurts. [Alex laughs] Andre: She says it hurts."
"Alex Morrison: Who's the best? On the scale of ten. Andre: Ten is the best, right? Virginia was a ten. Is, is. There was a Greek chick once I had, uh, she was a ten. No, I guess she was a nine and a half. Alex Morrison: What's Cherie? Andre: Two. [Alex laughs] Andre: I don't care. Alex Morrison: Beth's about an eight. Andre: Eight is great for a wife. Alex Morrison: Maybe a ten, I don't know."
