And the winner is Al Pacino 💯❤️

Longtime coming he deserves MULTIPLE OSCAR'S! One of the all time greats PERIOD!

IMO he’s the greatest actor

yasssss !!

how ?

@Mo B the host....not him

Yeahhh

PACINOSCAR

UNDERATED COMMENT

jack lemmon said he had a speech written in 1958 too lol

I've had this speech ready since 1973", that is some tribute...very realistic... but then we have this world which has compromises on every step ! U summarised his brilliance in half a sentence,,,congratulations !

agreed, he shouldve won for his performance in serpico, for me his best performance ever

yep

All of the standing ovations that I've seen for Pacino gives me goosebumps.

Absolute truth

@Divine_D just shows that the Oscars are a joke

Leo also has 1 Oscar yuck.. he also deserves more...

@@yashratwani280 he isn't at the level of al Pacino. Christian bale and phoenix are far better than him

Unbelievable, only one !?????

@@mariamatsumura5934 yep

because one all you need. People don't need to be greedy and expect their favorite actor to win every time he or she is nominated.

@@brandenlucero acctually when you you consider his previous performances such as Michael Corleone and Tony Montana, he deserves at least 1 or 2 more oscars

Ali Uygar Aydoğdu he was nominated for Best Supporting Actor in The Godfather but Brando was nominated for Best Lead Actor which is weird when you consider that Pacino was the main character of The Godfather and Brando was in a supporting role.

@@BrendanJSmith No, that would he in the second part. In the first part Marlon Brando is the driving force of the family. Does everything

Aryan Raina he dies like halfway through.

Godfather 2 was 74, he was up against some mighty incredible competition and even more so the following year

@@trinalaios734 the movie is from 1974, but competed in 1975, 47th Oscar.

and Serpico

Massive talent!!! I just love him. 😊

He’s also GOT A GREAT ASS

Tbh the only one who puts his whole soul is bale like the lengths dude will go to achieve stuff he wants maybe cruise somewhat comes close no ones on their level

​@mac.fk14 Jackie Chan did really dangerous stunts for his movies as well. Police Story trilogy, for example.

Real men choose Eastwood.

"You broke my streak", Al Pacino knows it too

Yes its an long overdue Best Actor....always great in every performances. Just like Robert de Niro

@Shh Shh what?

He was the Leonardo Dicaprio of that era!

Gabriel Zetina haha you wish. Leonardo are ain’t shit next to him

lee smith wasn't even nom'd for montana.

lee smith For the Part 1, yes. But not for Montana.

+lee smith He could have won for almost all the work he did previous to Scent of a Woman, with the exception of his very early films (just because the Academy doesn't look much at independent films, but Al gave a great performance in The Panic in Needle Park, for instance), but then came Godfather I and II, Serpico, Dog Day Afternoon, And Justice for All, Scarface, Sea of Love, Godfather III of course (in which he also acts incredible)... He even got a nomination for Dick Tracy, while I thought that his performance (and the film) weren't very good at all. But glad that he finally won an Oscar. After this, he also should've been nominated for Carlito's Way, Heat, Donnie Brasco, The Insider... Damn, he should have about 15 nominations by now.

+lee smith ok to corleone yes!

+lee smith That's how the Oscar works!

I couldn't agree more! I haven't seen that level of acting in my adult years yet. It's my favorite movie and I've watched it at least 70x lol

That is nothing watch scarface,godfather 2,gleggary glenn gross,serpico,dog day afternoon,and justice for all,irishman ,donnie brasco .these r btr performances of his.

1995 Heat too@@netaji-thebritishslayer

Scarface

Exactly 👌

I couldn't agree more

Exactly

Yeah right word

He deserves more Oscars...

Even more! He's one of the greatest actors in this world

Scent of woman was his Best actuation in Scarface .. if You watched the first movie of 1923 Paul Muny is the Best Tony Montana ... And in the grandfather maybe

Name the roles for those 5 please

@@jhernandez626 1. This one, 2. Scarface, 3. Serpico, 4. Dogday Afternoon, 5. The irishman

except that voice

@@johnnyfooker voice was what made it

Ikr she looks like a snack

She’s drop dead gorgeous. Her presentation was crisp and clear. Flawless really.

Not usually a Jodie Foster fan but she cleaned up real nice for this event.

Actually 👍

@Girl With A Vengeance No Shit Sherlock

He was 52 back then

My exact thought right now😂

He looked 60 in the movie and 40 here. His was 52.

Ohhh didn't catch that one. So that's what it means.

shahruk pathan care to explain? I didn't catch it!

Newtype that means he didn’t win oscar for lot of great movies he did and now for this one he won the Oscar. So, the streak has been broken by winning this Oscar

Lmao

Слёзы наворачиваются от этого.

Finally OMG

@Joe Bloggs Al and Denzel both should have won.

Absolutely the best actor in Hollywood

Yep

He is totally hot and sexy.

I'm straight, but goddamit... thats a real man.

Handsome how?

@@imkingmailru Beautiful brown eyes, all that gorgeous hair and his voice. Women look for different qualities than men. He was hot then, and hot now.

@@MicheleMJJ that was a "funny how?" reference from Goodfellas, but thanks for specifying ;)

Ok? Pretty common thing in the Oscars

@@gorehog04 Uh 2022 it’s at TGA

2023: Al Pacino hands the award for best actor in a video game 2024: Al Pacino hands the award for best picture

In fact, Nicholson is the original Di caprio, and the fact the Leo is morphing into Jack , its more amazing. Jack and Leo were both 4 times nominated (and losers) before winning their first oscar, Nicholson was 39 and Leo 42. I bet that by 2025, Leo will win a second oscar as a supporting actor, just like Jack.

@@hardiksharma1428 I didn't think so. I don't think there was anyone there, who didn't enjoy seeing the great actor, Al Pacino get his award, finally.

@@hardiksharma1428 pretty sure he was high

And for the Oscars he lost in The Godfather, The Godfather 2, Serpico, Scarface, etc.

Its like finally......

Took them way too long to stand up though! Soon as his name was called they should have stood up.

Seems weird looking back at these older ceremonies - took them a minute to give friggin’ Pacino a standing ovation and other legends like Shirley MacLaine don’t even get one, whereas nowadays any actor who wins, the whole audience are on their feet like puppets. Standing ovations don’t mean much now…

Oorah. That is the exact moment I almost lost it during this video. A legend. I have spoken.

Frank Slade: wins oscar

Sure...

Hooo haa

Frank serpico missed too

Tony Montana didn’t deserve an Oscar IMO

That movie wasn’t better than Malcolm X

@@yusefreynolds229it was

so true

robert feels so out of place among these people.

@@mustaquimahmedtanbeer2437 he was at the right place. His performance in Chaplin was amazing. If there was no Pacino among the nominees, Downey would win.

@@__MarchHare__ Denzel would’ve won

@@__MarchHare__ Denzel wins

Nah 40 at least, but still looks young for his age

@@zorashki 😂dude, I know how to Google. I was correcting when you say he looked 34

have you seen him lately....he's 79 looks 59...

It's called hair dye

He does indeed look amazing for his age.

Yep, and a much deserved standing ovation.

Perhaps previous characters weren't off-beat enough, at least, not of what wins, lately.

Dog day afternoon was one of his best.

Any given sunday and Serpico

@@Locadel2003 , ain't nobody gonna forget Dog Day Afternoon , dude

All those movies are awesome, Heat 🔥

GREAT LINE!!!!😘

Lol ..even he knew that he should have won one already

James Hughes or Scarface

Godfather 1 was all about Marlon. No one deserved the Oscar when he was alive

@@deepanshusharma76 Not true. He was in like half the movie. He was great in part 1 but so was Pacino.

@@jameshughes6049 screen presence is not important for best performance

Don't trust the people involved.

Its not like he didnt deserve it but compare to performances that got him oscar nomination in the past, this one is the weakest one. He shouldve won oscar for TGF, or TGF2, or Dogday Afternoon.

@@harukrentz435 The 70s was just tough competition so he lost even though looking back, he gave the best run of performances.

He can’t get too emotional because in his mind he’s already won a dozen Oscars

@@harukrentz435 Your opinion, for me is one of the best.

@Milan Scarface , The Godfather II, Carlitos Way

He should have 6

Godfather 1 & 2. / Dog day / serpico/ scent/ sea of love. Or and justice for all. Either way 5!or 6 he should have

He also shouldn't have won for this

Dog Day Afternoon. But Jack Nicholson had the nerve to star in Cuckoo's Nest that year.

Hes an introvert calm guy.

@johnny67448 Training day had great acting too.

Little did he know he's the winner...

@johnny67448 true malcom x was an epic movie.... but the (dinner scene) in scent of a women Oscar winning performance... all day long it clinched it... even though malcom x was such strong story and acting...

@@Yeehaw_drunkard Desi beauty

It's Jodie Foster but yeah she's stunning honestly.

OMG! Yes, trying to Look sassy. Even Cinderella needs to look nice once in a while lol

She's always looked great.

No, I’d rather talk about how much Al deserved more than one Oscar, not an attractive woman that had nothing to do with Al’s success

@@hr0727 ok

Monster

Daniel Day Lewis then?

@@venkatrajv .. D.D. lewis is one of the best actor tho i agree... but the difference is D.D.Lewia acts naturally in movies n pacino lives in it...

ddw is also a gd actor bt none of them is like marlon brando

They have the same personality,they have not a defined sense of identity. Is Indeed true that they don't act but they become the character they are playing.

Early 40s maybe

Late 30's c'mon lol

Early 40s or a scruffy looking late 30s. Young

@@cindiqq2292 nah he looks mid 30s But his voice makes him sound 50ish

Yea man ages very slowly

Denzel is a pro and I am not a Denzel biased person. He just doesn't fail to deliver tbh I didnt see Malcom x. worth the time?

@@theDARKSTEP Yep he's phenomenal there but that year Pacino was just a bit better

@@theDARKSTEP people say denzel was snubbed that year. I think the oscars were trying to make up for all the snubbing they had done to pacino.

In my home, in my bedroom where my wife sleep, where my children come to play..in my home!

Truth.

Like zlatan

Can you remember who got the Oscar when he didn't got? I can't but everyone remembers Al Pacino and always will.

@@stormshadow5266 good point there

Exacto "

Once an audience does that, you know the winner is highly regarded.

Did u notice Kathy Bates? She is really thrilled. But Al did not give a simple kiss to Foster. Allienated?

@@napoleonhondrogiannis5760 His girlfriend was in the audience...what did you want him to do?

I didn't know that and it is hard to believe.

True , the reason is quite obvious tho That era was the golden movies time I mean dont you see the nominees here They all are iconic movies with phenomenal performance , time when someone wins, he actually WINS

+LoOoDa DWOZ well this is the 90's, and it is at that time, more significant and more famous

+alex kanyima that's what i said , and that oscar worth 2-3 oscar nowadays movies , id wanna take new movies there credit but , scent of a women is on a league of it's own cant really name a movie recently produced near the level of perfection as this one my perfect actor's list OF ALL TIME : 1 al pacino 2- Denzel washington 3- Tom hanks 4-Morgan freeman 5- Leonardo di caprio you cant see a bad movie from these legends ..

+Akabubi Chan I second that

marlon brando

@@waynej2608 I think people admire Brando more because of his personality. That I admire about him. But as an actor, I think pacino is better. His vercatility it's too much.

@@darkriff777 lol nice one

He was growing beard, cause he was filming Carlito's Way.

He still undercover, too bad he ain't wearing a nun outfit

@@yahiryellow1 Nuns don't work on Sundays

because Don Michael was an antihero. There was no possibility to praise a character like that those times.

@@__MarchHare__ It makes me so sad that he's won only one oscar. But fuck oscars..he proved himself. He holds the triple crown

@@__MarchHare__ The early 70s were all about anti-heroes. Hackman won for Popeye Doyle, Nicholson for Randall McMurphy, Brando for The Godfather etc.

@@Saintinthecity-wh9nl suffering and dying antiheroes like Don Vito or McMurphy -- that's not the same like the at last winning Don Michael (although being unhuman with empty eyes).

@@__MarchHare__ I don't think anti hero role was the issue bcz Brando and De Niro won the award for antihero roles (Don Vito Corleone)

I find his humility endearing and so precious a trait of his. He is such a good person.

He is my favorite, and the greatest of all actors!

@@elinsandaker332 greatest american actor of all times.

Fantastic! Actor.

@@datfacenigga 🤣🤣🤣

I know. I was thinking how could he hold those eyes up without blinking? It's amazing!

Whoa!!!!! I actually didn't notice that. Wow!!!!!

you're funny

With his eyes open!! Amazing!

It's funny how he didn't win for his best performance, same as Leo

I think he won one more. I don't really remember the year but u can search for it.

Джасур Мирхалилов nope just one. I think the academy has it against him cause for The Godfather, he boycotted the Oscars that year cause he was insulted at being nominated for supporting actor and not lead actor so who knows maybe the academy doesn’t like him or something

Oscars don't make a good actor

@@chimrichalds9716 Well, he was right then. He was clearly the protagonist.

I've thought that a lot too. And then I looked up the list of his British Academy awards. It more than makes up for it. :-)

all of the godfathers

Glengarry Glen Ross

Carlito's Way

Dont forget carlitos way mannnn

Good call, but I'd replace Scarface with And Justice for All or Carlito's Way. Also, I loved Glengary Glenn Ross, but it was more of an ensamble film. Pacino was awesome in it, but so were Jack Lemmon, Ed Harris, Alan Arkin, Alec Baldwin, etc.

Just like Susan Lucci/Erica Kane from All My Children

actually he was only nomitaded 5 times.

Actually Al was nominated 8 times (5 for best leading and 3 for best supporting actor). 1. The Godfather. 2. Serpico. 3. The Godfather Part 2. 4. Dog Day Afternoon. 5. ....And Justice for all. 6. Dick Tracy. 7. Glengarry Glen Ross. 8. Scent of a woman. And should have been nominated more for his many other iconic roles.

Richard Burton was nominated 7 times and never won :'(

What about poor Peter O'Toole?!!

Would've been great to see them 2 work together in a movie.

Nope...all were best...but for them Al Pacino is there icon or Godfather and Al deserved it.

@@ankitojha4593 ,he made an offer which the jury couldn't refuse.

Exactly. Lol. His expression was like "omg. This is so stupid".

Serpico, ...And Justice for All

bruh he didn't even get nominated for scarface. I mean, WTF??!!

Talha Ahmad I know I still can't understand it to this day. Him as Tony Montana is top quality acting

I noticed that too. Maybe the hair and beard help.

Exactly!!!

He looks ten years younger than he did in godfather part 3, which came out three years before this

He looks younger then he did in scar face which was 10 years before this
