Kathy Bates' mother had surprising reaction to her Oscar win: ‘You didn’t discover the cure for cancer’

Kathy Bates’ mother wasn’t as excited about her daughter's Oscar win as might be expected.

In an interview with Ben Mankiewicz on "CBS Sunday Morning," Bates recalled her mother’s response to her best actress win for the 1990 film "Misery."

"When I won the Oscar for ‘Misery,’ she said, ‘I don’t know what all the excitement [is] about, you didn’t discover the cure for cancer.’"

Bates continued, saying she forgot to thank her mother during her speech, but Mankiewicz shared a clip revealing she actually did.
