I like how Glenn Close is so happy for Emma
Aw cmon, Close is a brilliant actress!
Glenn should've have his Oscar for Fatal Attraction of course by that time. How unfair the Oscars always have been for her.
She was amazing she probably was a fan of Emma ❤👍🏻
@@ranmsesmendiola5681 fatal attraction released 6 years before this one so that film was nominated in 1988 Oscars
Fun fact: Emma won everything else she was nominated for that year.
Nope, she won Best Screenplay in 1996
That’s why all the other nominees we’re like: :/
@@gregdelisle6751 What the OP means is that Emma Thompson won all acting awards she was nominated for in 1993 for Howard's End.
She did much ado about nothing with Kenneth Branagh
@@NP-vn8so What do you mean?
2:38 "Give back... the money!" I love Emma's inflection and comedic timing.
Like MIchelle in that film but she should have won for the Fabulous Baker Boys. Thompson was the clear winner for Howard's End. One of the few actors to win all of the major critics awards (NY, LA, National Board of Review, and National Society of Film Critics). Interestingly enough, her wonderful performance in The Remains of the Day, was up against Holly Hunter in The Piano, who also won all four of those top awards, and I might add, they both also won the Globe, which in my humble opinion, mean less, given they tend to judge by star power, less than actual acting.
I love your profile picture!!! MC!!!
She was winning all the awards that season and yet appeared totally blindsided by winning here. Best actress indeed!
Good actress
Funny how Anthony Hopkins presented Oscars to Emma Thompson twice.
VoidedMirror I just noticed that, how ironic?
It is not ironic. That's not what ironic means
Not only that, but she was the last in the list of nominees he read out, both times.
morganfisherart I think it’s done alphabetically. T for Thompson, it isn’t surprising she was last both times
They choose who they want to present the oscar to them.
She was tremendous with Hopkins in The Remains of the Day too.
+TheCrunchySopa she deserves an oscar for that, a much more powerful role than in "howards end".
+Yun Yi Yes! I thought I was alone in this. Although she is magnificent in both films, I almost fell asleep watching Howard's End.
She was absolutely superb in the remains of the day, and so was Hopkins.
I love her so much together with Anthony Hopkins in The Remains of the day!!!!!!!!!They are so a beautiful couple!!!!
Her competition was much stronger that year.
Emma Thompson is one of the best, beauty, brains and brilliant humor all wrapped into one classy, courteous and courageous package. She is always entertaining to watch, though in the most interesting, breathtaking and impressive way. She might be the greatest actress of our era (post 1980), alongside Meryl Streep and Judi Dench. Emma is an amazing woman, that's for sure, and very much unlike most of her peers she doesn't take herself too seriously. Talent wise, she can't be beat, thoroughly commendable, legitimate and awesome as it is, and spellbinding as she can be. Every time she wins an award of such a high and prestigious caliber the Gods of justice dance a spirited jig way up in the realm of the otherworldly, and the afterlife blazes with surreal sunshine. Brilliant!!
Taylor Ahern so true! Don't forget Jessica Lange and Glenn Close. I think that's the top 5 😉
Taylor Ahern are you a writer Taylor? :)
Taylor Ahern she won two. For her screenplay adaptation of sense and sensibility
Beautifully put Taylor. Amen.
@@jessicabayodarn852 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😄😄😄😄
There's something about Emma Thompson...I just love her.
Basically she's spontaneous... that's why the speech always appears genuine. It just shows in many of her interviews. You have to only memorize some points...and just delve into the moment, LOVE HER !
Why is it that the British always give the most eloquent acceptance speeches. They have class and finesse in all they do.
I think... Because you are comparing them to Americans and so it’s too easy to sound classy and sophisticatsd
Gabriel Barrueco yeah you are probably right. But I mean look at the acceptance speech that Regina King gave and that is total class....
I think... Yeah, but the same is said of French people for instance. I think Americans tend to find Europeans in general elegant and stuff
@@Gabriel-hs9mv not Germans and Italians or the Spanish
Big Boy I think they do. They find Penelope Cruz or Donatella Versace really classy in a European sort of way.
She gives the best acceptance speeches!!! I could listen to her all day
I could listen to them all day long too. And it would be a pleasure.
The genuine shock is amazing! Hopkins and Pacino said she was going to win. She just couldn't believe it. What a wonderful structured performance!
Her reaction is priceless
I love that she won, but it's rare that she reacted that way because that year she was the favorite for the award.
Jodie Foster and Emma Thompson should get oscars only for being alive
For my money, the most deserving acting Oscar in the last 25 years or so. She was simply brilliant in that movie. If you haven't seen "Howards End," you really should.
Dame Emma Thompson is one of the finest actresses in the world. From "Howard's End" to "Angels in America" to "Harry Potter", she has shone like the sun in every role.
Anthony Hopkins presented Emma Thompson with both of her Oscars. What a coincidence.
eastwoodkicksass The first time (this video) was very normal. Best actor presents best actress and vice versa (if the person come back in the following year).
When the Oscars were real Oscars....
What does that even mean?!
they still are as long as cate blanchett, julianne moore and lupita nyong'o win them!!
emma deserved it and howards end was the most exciting film besides beauty and the beast but that was another ceremony oh yeah oddly best film the other year silence of the lambs beating hairy guy and book freak 🤣
So true... nowadays things are... banal
To me, it also harkens back to a time when the Oscars were more about the work, and less about appearances. Glam squads, branding, designers labels, etc. It’s all all so slick and commercialized now, there is no room for an actor or actress to express their individuality.
The combination of her with Anthony Hopkins is always a treat !
Emma always makes the best speeches!
Funniest when she happens to be tipsy....
Anthony Hopkins also presented Emma Thompson her other Oscar for Best Screenplay for "Sense & Sensibility".
Amazing how Anthony Hopkins presented both of her Oscars (this one particularly because the lead actor gave to his lead actress), and also that both acceptance speeches began with, "I really don't know how to thank the Academy..."
Did she actually win or did he just read her name and everyone had to go with it...
really sad how you know that :)
Good actress and seems a nice person😀
I love Glenn Close's reaction and I love Emma.
How gorgeous is it that Anthony Hopkins gives the award? Most gorgeous Merchant Ivory film. Only Emma and Tony.
OMG.. all the ladies nominated were all treasured actors..😘😘 Susan Sarandon, Catherine D, Michelle P..Emma ..goodness..they were all deserve to win that day..💪💪
Glenn Close at 1:31 so happy for Emma!
Is there a more delightful and gorgeous lady?
+ajhiflyer She really is one out of the box. Love her.
+ajhiflyer Cate Blanchett, perhaps
EigramGn On a par I would say :)
She's so bloody classy
When I saw this I was amazed at this performance and the eventual breakdown of her character which was brilliant acting
Vanessa Redgrave is beautiful in the audience! She's a wonderful actress.
Gracefully chewing gum, love that!
Now where was her nomination for Saving Mr. Banks?
she's too good for hollywood these days
That's What I've been wondering since I've seen it!!!
and Nanny McPhee.
Hollywood sucks in these days, guys! :(
Dan Tee I RECKON!
Emma Thompson deserved (at least) an Oscar nomination for her performance as P.L. Travers in Saving Mr. Banks.
Just like Julie Andrews won an Oscar for her portrayal as Mary Poppins. Emma Thompson should have received an Oscar for her portrayal of author, P.L. Travers!
Catherine Deneuve is gorgeous!
@Renan C. Maia That's exactly what I was thinking.
Wow he's awarded Emma Thompson BOTH of her Oscars!!!!
Emma, You will live eternally. Lovely human being.
Never seen Nanny McPhee so happy and astonished before!
Leave it to Emma Thompson to be able to give such an eloquent and witty speech despite being clearly shocked!
I love how the Brits deliver their thanksgiving speeches at the Oscars. No loss for words; still very eloquent and don't waste any second on their limited time. And witty, too. Just like Kate Winslet's speech as well.
She is just natural, every role she is in. Like she is not acting at all.
Amazing speech. I'll be honest, Michelle Pfeiffer was my personal winner that year. My runners-up were Emma Thompson and Susan Sarandon. Anyway, I'm glad Emma won. She was fantastic in Howards End
Really? I think Pfeiffer is great but Love Field is not a good film. She should have won for The Fabulous Baker Boys in the 1990 Oscars, though.
I would have personally nominated Meryl for Death Becomes Her but that wasn't exactly an oscar type of performance.
The 90s had the best actresses of any decade, there was Susan Sarandon, Michelle Pfeiffer, Emma Thompson, Kristin Scott Thomas, Jodie Foster. They had beauty, intelligence, strength of character.
Her shock and "That can't be" reaction is too cute...
Such grace and beauty!
Emma Thompson a class actor in her own terms!!.. I just saw again Howards End, and as good as the movie is, I couldn't help but arguing that Thompson gave a much better and complex performance in another James Ivory film, "The Remains of the Day" than on this one for which she won the Oscar. Howards End it's not for everybody, it is kinda slow at times, but as a whole, it survives because of many things such as the superb acting, the cinematography, the art direction, and an excellent Original score. Anthony Hopkins gives one of the most underrated performances and he should've been nominated for an Oscar that year . Whatever the case is, Howards End it's one of the best movies from the last century.
So much class and elegance there was in the 90s
She’s an amazing actress and overall smart person
Glenn Close looked so happy for Emma.
I like how Hopkins gave Thompson both of her Oscar's
LOVE Emma Thompson❤️
Love her! Great acceptance, witty, sharp, and yet somehow humble all at the same time.
It's no wonder Vanessa Redgrave was thrilled for her.
Those British actors and actresses always seem to be most prepared and normally give the best acceptances, could that be why they take home the trophies so often?
It's because they're such good actors and actresses.
THAT's how you give an acceptance speech people: no crying, keep it short, throw in a few jokes, be grateful (without going overboard: it's only an oscar for god's sake) and graceful, thank the right people and then leave.
M Florence Ah, but she DOES go overboard. Please read my above comment. And she almost damn well does cry. Or maybe you left the room at 2:32.
What’s wrong with crying? It takes a hell of a lot to get an Oscar
MisterObjectivity that was actually her laughing. Were you not listening to the joke she made at that moment?
One of my personal all-time favorite performances by an actress. Very deserving win.
Its good to see such a great british actress winning that thing ...
She is just sooo natural in every movie, like she is not acting at all.
I hope she reunites with Anthony Hopkins for another movie...
+Aberforth Cousland yes. he is emma's best counterpart beside alan rickman.
she did remains of the day 😁
and then she does! in king lear (2018), though not a romantic role.
Amazing speech. Authentic, inspiring and still brief.
The ever funny and classy Emma Thompson......a great actress a great woman.
Love Emma Thompson!! Beautiful, articulate, intelligent, funny and so damn talented!!
Emma Thompson should have been nominated for portrayal as pl Travers..and it's a crime that she wasn't even nominated for the movie...
She seemed genuinely shocked and surprised!
She is so witty....love her
Wonderful acceptance speech!!
I really really really hope she's nominated again for 'The Children Act' this year :)
Emma was robbed of a nomination for "Saving Mr. Banks!.
What a classy lady, and speech...
Such grace and intelligence. What a beautiful lady in every sense of the word, inside and out.
My birth year.
World has changed so much.
Love and respect for Emma.
now that's a good oscar acceptance speech!
Great actress.
Wonderful speech. Wonderful actress. Thanks for uploading, Oscars!
We know Emma has won when sir Antony shows up. She’s such a legend!
The Best Actor winner from the previous year always gives out the Best Actress award. And vice versa.
Brilliant actress.
It is so unfair that she has only one Oscar...she's brilliant...
She has 2....
I mean, as an actress...
But she's the only one who's got for acting AND for writing. I find that sooo cool.
Yeah, SHE is veeery cool! But, I would love to see her win onother one as an actress...
It should be noted that a total of about 11 people have received Writing and Acting nominations in the same year. They are: Charlie Chaplin, Orson Welles, Sylvester Stallone, Woody Allen, Warren Beatty, Massimo Troisi, Billy Bob Thornton, Matt Damon, Roberto Benigni, George Clooney, and Emma Thompson.
Emma is the ONLY woman to achieve this feat (she achieved this feat for SENSE AND SENSIBILITY), as well as the ONLY person (male or female) to win both categories (winning Screenplay for SENSE AND SENSIBILITY and Actress for HOWARD'S END).
Side note: With the exception of George Clooney, everyone else have achieved this feat for one film. Also, Clooney and Warren Beatty are not only the only ones in this group to achieve the double nomination TWICE, but they BOTH achieved a unique Oscar feat that no one else achieved (before or since) and they achieved it twice. In Beatty's case, he's the ONLY person ever to receive Producing, Directing, Acting, and Writing nominations in the same year, doing to twice (for HEAVEN CAN WAIT and REDS respectively). In Clooney's case, it is receiving the nominations for 2 different films in the same year (also doing so twice) (in his case, it was Acting for SYRIANA and Writing for GOOD NIGHT AND GOOD LUCK (both in 2005) and Acting for THE DESCENDANTS and Writing for THE IDES OF MARCH (both in 2011)).
If you haven't seen "Howards' End", do. Then see it again, and again after that. Each time you're going to find something new. I saw it in the theater when it was released and didn't care much for it. Then I watched it at home and realized how wrong my first impression had been. For my money, it's the best film of the '90s.
Boring movie. I just watched it
Now, that was an acceptance speech worth remembering. Short & sweet... abit unlike her... tall & sharp as a tack. What a gift she has... & is.
Well done Emma !! She an amazing actress with an amazing award and playing in an amazing movie !!
LOVE DAME EMMA THOMPSON!! Such a funny and humble and classy LADY. Glad she won TWICE!!
I just love her, how we couldn’t??
Emma Thompson is the first (and so far, only) person to win Oscars for both acting and writing!
I saw the movie an enjoyed it but it never occurred to me it would be the stuff of Oscars. I though the acting by everyone was first-rate but, again, had never thought of an Oscar for Emma Thompson. So I watched the movie again and then it all made sense. The acting was so superlative I think I forget I was watching acting.
I think she is a great actrees... She deserved the Oscar that year... I really miss to watch her in outstanding roles, such as In the name of the father, The remains of the day, Howard's end, Sense and sensibility... I love the way you perform those characters, Emma
That was so classy
A legend even then. And far ahead of her time in her gracious thank you!❤️
She’s such a class act.
Emma Thompson is a monster, best actress of my lifetime.
Isn’t it amazing how graceful everyone was compared to award shows now? Don’t see Anthony Hopkins running up and punching Billy Crystal here do you? Well deserved by Emma Thompson - she is amazing in every single role she plays
I just love her! She is great in everything I've seen her in and always does interesting projects. Gorgeous too!
AMAZING ACTRESS! I ADORE HER!!!!
Amazing woman!
Thank you for sharing this. She's a wonderful actress and gives the best speeches.
I'm torn when it comes to this Oscar win. I saw Catherine Deneuve in Indochine a few years ago and I wanted her to win. About two years ago I saw Mary Mcdonnell in Passion Fish and wanted her to win. I saw Howards End about three weeks ago and I'm happy that Emma won. I wish that Mary and Emma could of tied it. Passion Fish is still one of my favorite movies.
+aprilwearsgucci I know what you mean, it happens sometimes when I cannot choose either. I think those are the good years :D
That year was particularly blessed, unlike some other years.
Glenn Close behind Emma
Both of the times Emma Thompson has won an Oscar Anthony Hopkins presented it to her
Cindy Crawford & Richard Gere behind her
Brilliant at everything she does. Bravo. (Saw her for the first time on the big screen and couldn't take my eyes off of her; knew she was special).
Same here!!!! Glad that Emma won, but I would have made it a three way tie between Emma, Catherine and Michelle!!!!
Great clip. Nicer times for AA in those days. Not so hysterical. Emma Thompson is wearing trousers. She's the greatest. Could she and Cate Blanchett please have some kids together, preferably some girls, in order we can have some great actresses who can and will speak up, also for the future.
Could she be more ahead of the curve ? Genius woman
The Academy lacked the courage to indicate one of the most daring works of that year. In Basic Instinct, Sharon Stone magnetizes the canvas every time she is on the scene, Catherine Tramell's sensuality goes far from a free trivialization of nudity to a game of manipulation and domination over her partner and control of the situation that is interpreted in a way spectacular by Sharon Stone, one of the best female performances of the 90s and that redefined a genre and marked an era of pop culture. And when we look at the list of nominees for Oscar 93 for best actress, we see how absurd that snub was, because although they were excellent, none of the nominees that year performed better than Sharon Stone in Basic Instinct and that even includes own Oscar winner who was Emma Thompson.
She was always great...her second spring several years ago was wonderful but she hqd never really stopped working...one of the most devoted and hardest working actresses over the last 30 plus years. She deserves 5 of these!!!!
It's funny that they play the Howards End music both when Hopkins enters the stage and when Thompson wins.
It's actually the music from "The Silence of the Lambs"
Ke Vin
It is? It's been a while since I've seen either film but I just assumed it was the Howards End theme because they played it when Emma won. Why would they play The Silence of the Lambs music?
