Ten Memorable Oscar Acceptance Speeches
One of the more interesting aspects of the Oscars is the acceptance speeches that the winners give upon receiving their little gold statues. Some are quick and to the point, and others lag on and on until music starts playing in an attempt to shut the winner up. Of course, there’s also the bizarre, the political, and the hilarious. After the jump, take a look at ten of the more memorable Oscar acceptance speeches:
Cuba Gooding, Jr. for Best Supporting Actor
Adrian Brody for Best Actor
Roberto Benigni for Best Foreign Language Film
Michael Moore for Best Documentary Feature
Halle Berry for Best Actress
Sacheen Littlefeather for Marlon Brando for Best Actor
Steven Spielberg for Best Director
Denzel Washington for Best Actor
Ben Affleck and Matt Damon for Best Original Screenplay
Three 6 Mafia for Best Song
