At the next table over, Bill Murray, Elaine May, and Jeannie Berlin are deep in conversation.
Bill Murray on Elaine May: “Probably the most beautiful, intelligent woman I’ve ever worked with. And she saved my life on numerous occasions, professionally.”
“They told me Zelenskyy would introduce me…” jokes Elaine May, accepting her honorary Oscar.
Presenter Denzel Washington rattled off the list of charities Samuel L Jackson has worked with over his career. “That’s what *he’s* been doing… I don’t know what *y’all* been doing…”
Here’s Denzel giving Samuel L. Jackson an honorary Oscar!
“When I got this call last year, it was unexpected,” says Samuel L. Jackson, “but I guarantee you, this thing is gonna be cherished.”
I think you want to see just a little more of how excited Denzel and Samuel L. Jackson are now that the latter has his honorary Oscar
“In Norway, you have to live by a certain rule: Don’t brag,” says Liv Ullman, accepting her honorary Oscar. Then, slyly: “That’s why I brought 20 people tonight!”
Alfre Woodard looking incredible
“I am amazingly grateful for this moment,” says Danny Glover, accepting an honorary Oscar for his political activism from Alfre Woodard
Danny Glover launched into a new tribute to a very moved Liv Ullman
The awards are over but Alfre Woodard is exhorting us to stay and dance and drink champagne. She’s says it’s what everyone deserves after sitting through the show in Spanx all night.
@kylebuchanan This is so BEAUTIFUL, and one of those very special moments that are sorely missed from the Oscar telecasts now! 😟
@kylebuchanan I cannot begin to even verbalize how much I love this man. Had the honor of meeting him THREE times and each time I never stopped feeling proud to have been there.
@kylebuchanan @mrdannyglover Apologies bothering you with my unfortunate situation, and I understand this pandemic has taken its tall to everyone, looking at my situation I thought of swallowing my pride and put my families and I needs, I plead with you to help me with groceries if possible just to go by,
@kylebuchanan He’s “too old for this shit.” Loved him since “Places in the Heart.”
@kylebuchanan In your speech, did you mention the money you stole in Venezuela, along with former dictator Chavez?
@kylebuchanan i remember watching Cries & Whispers (1972) in film class, dir. by Ingmar Bergman
