Best Picture Oscar Speech 2008

  • From Oscars.org:
  • Best Picture Oscar Acceptance Speech by Scott Rudin: This is an unbelievable honor and a complete surprise. So many people have a part of this, chief among them Cormac McCarthy who wrote a wonderful book that it was an honor to make into a movie. The three men sitting down front: Josh Brolin, Tommy Lee Jones, Javier Bardem; without them there would be no movie. These two gentlemen, I can't think of anybody I would rather be standing here with than the two of you. Thank you so much for this.
  • Everybody at Vantage and Miramax, who financed the movie together. The entire team at Miramax who did a brilliant, brilliant job selling it. Thank you to all of them. I want to thank Mark Roybal; it's a pleasure to work with him every day. I want to thank my friend Sydney Pollack, who taught me that with the responsibility – with the opportunity to make movies comes the responsibility of making them good. This is for him.
  • This is also for my partner John Barlow. Without you, honey, this would be hardware. Thank you so much. Thank you.

Best Actor Oscar Speech 2008

  • YouTube Video: Best Actor and Actress (Time: 2:07)


  • Daniel Day-Lewis Oscar Acceptance Speech from Oscars.org: That's the closest I'll ever come to getting a knighthood. Thank you. My deepest thanks to the members of the Academy for whacking me with the hansomest bludgeon in town. I'm looking at this gorgeous thing that you've given me, and I'm thinking back to the first devilish whisper of an idea that came to him and everything since. This sprang like a golden sampling from the mad beautiful head of Paul Thomas ANderson. I wish my son and partner HW Plainview were up here with me. So many people to thank. One amongst them Mrs Plainview down there, the enchantingly optimistic and open minded Rebecca Miller. I hope that all those who I owe and who I feel the deepest gratitude will forgive me if I say simply thank you, Paul. I've been thinking about fathers and sons in the course of all this. I would like to accept this in honor of my grandfather, Michael Bolkin, my father Cecil Day Lewis, and my three fine boys Gabrielle, Ronan, and Casil.

  • Coen Brothers Oscar Acceptance Speech: Thank you very much for this. Than you Scott Rudin for bringing us the novel and giving us a chance to make this movie. Whateve success we've had in this area is entirely attributable to how selective we are. We've only adapted Homer and Cormac McCarthy. Thank you.

Coen Brothers Best Directing Oscar Award Speech

  • YouTube Video: Achievement in Directing (Time: 2:51)


  • Coen Brothers Best Directing Oscar Award Speech from Oscars.org:
  • Ethan Coen:
    • I don't have a lot to add to what I said earlier. Thank you.
  • Joel Coen:
    • Ethan and I have been making stories with movie cameras since we were kids. In the late '60s when Ethan was 11 or 12, he got a suit and a briefcase and we went to the Minneapolis International Airport with a Super 8 camera and made a movie about shuttle diplomacy called "Henry Kissinger, Man on the Go." And honestly, what we do now doesn't feel that much different from what we were doing then. There are too many people to thank for this. We're really thrilled to have received it, and we're very thankful to all of you out there for letting us continue to play in our corner of the sandbox, so thank you very much.
