Roberto Benigni winning Best Actor

[1991elmstreet]

Damn I want Edward Norton win oscar

[lucretiam]

@PeridothSky Maybe he is ugly, i don't say he isn't...but isn't boring, how can you say a thing like this? Have you ever seen one of his movies? Is for sure one of the BEST directors and actors! Great Roberto!

[welcometotheshack]

@PeridothSky roberto deserved to win

your mom is very ugly and boring

[ferghyfergie]

@PeridothSky Are you joking?

[6labi4]

Benigni sei grande, ma non ci vuole molto a fare un po' di fenetica. Ma mi ha fatto sganasciare lo stesso! :D Fenomeno.

[MrXGLWalker]

This man is full of life.

[BRBaller1213]

Benigni was great in Life is Beautiful, and it was a great film, but I think it should have gone to Tom Hanks or Edward Norton

[9Ulysse]

W ITALIA!

[Scorpionik92]

l'orgoglio del nostro paese =)...

[FilmDisney]

Apparently Nick Nolte, Ian McKellen and Edward Norton got really drunk after this

[pinturicchia87]

oroglio italiano :-D!!!!!!

[oldsiamsir24]

Tom Hanks got robbed

[DrakeBrunette]

Only Nick Nolte seemed disappointed...

[klausweasley]

@DrakeBrunette There's an amusing behind-the-scenes story about that. Ian McKellen said that Nick told him he doesn't mind losing...he just didn't wanna lose to Roberto Benigni. LOL.

[LolloSangio]

bellissimo il momento in cui è inquadrato Jim Carrey che ride! :)

[DaniEzze]

Benigni showed us that a movie doesn´t need explicit holocaust-scenes to make us cry !!

[DavePlissken]

Oh my God... Roberto Benigni beaten Gandalf as best actor!!! O.O

[extenebrislux]

Aww I really hoped Ed was gonna win, because he's an amazing actor and he deserved an Oscar for that role, but I can't say he was "robbed" because Benigni did a bloody good job!

[Nebisis]

Awww! I love him ^^

[pkaapl]

quando sentiamo il "tumult" a ogni italiano viene da ridere!

[pkaapl]

quando sentiamo il "tumult" a ogni italiano viene da ridere!

[TouristTrophyRecord]

Roberto è uguale e identico a com'è nel film... un grande uomo.

[dehihihohh]

Roberto Benigni...Tom Hanks...Nick Nolte...Edward Norton....Saving Soldier Ryan, American History X, La Vita è Bella....THAT WAS CINEMA

[dehihihohh]

roberto benigni...tom hanks...edward norton...nick nolte..american history X, saving soldier ryan, la vita è bella.....THAT WAS CINEMA!!!

[cawinhosurf]

is that guy BORAT?

[minnbeef]

I finally saw Life is Beautiful last night. Benigni was absolutely incredible, as was the little boy who played his son. That little 4 year old boy should have received a Best Supporting Actor nomination. Viva Italia and Viva Benigni.

[IntrInsec1]

from the bottle of my heart

[ayanni07]

"this is a terrible mistake because i used up all my english!"

[ilovemyschnauzer1]

lol. the look on tom hanks' face!! he looks happy that roberto won

[anmepa93]

1:19 hahaha Robin Williams tries to hug him :)

[CustomVideoEditingV2]

like no joke, from the looks of this, in the movie he practically plays himself, hes pure in spirit and heart.

[CustomVideoEditingV2]

0:59 look at Nick Nolte's face hes like, yea w.e ill clap -__- while all other nominees clapped with happiness for roberto.

[thatfilmgeekguy]

sorry but it really is quite unbelievable that he won over norton

[MackGarko02]

Edward Norton's performance is just BRUTAL....

[aaronmichlin]

I'd put Norton and Hanks above Benigni

[crazyguy43]

@aaronmichlin I'd put Norton above everybody.

[lucadtgs]

the second guy back there was about to give roberto a hug, but roberto only gave him his hand

[CustomVideoEditingV2]

@lucadtgs lol he was too excited to stop and hug him

[lucadtgs]

the second guy back there was about to give roberto a hug, but roberto only gave him his hand

[Wawanakwadude]

i think edward norton should have won

[danmesk]

Cecchi Gori al minuto 2:20 sembra voler chiedere "cazzo ha detto?"

[Cokain3]

@danmesk ajajja

[manu89pa]

mi sono emozionato ragazzi... ha vinto tra mostri sacri... .. mamma mia.

[Rubiicon]

HE IS THE CUTEST THING EVER

[zleeloo]

his accent is so funny!

[ianapeixoto1]

Helen Hunt's face on 2:41 lol

[djugopiazza]

NOTARE CHE QUELL'ANNO C'ERANO NOMINATI ATTORI COME TOM HANKS ED EDWARD NORTON NEL MITICO AMERICAN HISTORY X !!

ROBBBERTO !!!!

[andreafender70]

ci vorrebbe un film con roberto benigni and jim carrey :)

[Valmolko]

mi fa piangere sentire la loren che urla "roberto!!!" mi sento fiera di essere italiana per un secondo

[Valmolko]

è normale che mi faccia piangere quando la loren urla "robberto!!"? Mi sento fiera di essere italiana per un secondo

[conteforever]

Life is Beutifull Great Movie!!! Roberto Benigni Grazie

[HDNiko]

and the oscar goes to, Rouberto benini ! ahh

[HDNiko]

and the oscar goes to ... Rouberto benini ! ahh

[HDNiko]

and the oscar goes to ... Rouberto benini ! ahhahaha

[fibrantonio]

life is a beautiful

[fibrantonio]

LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL

[missvannelli]

Ha battuto solo gente come Hanks, Nolte, Norton... robbetta da niente! BENIGNI PRESIDENTE DELLA REPUBBLICA <3

[slappin24]

"I don't deserve this...but I hope to win some more Oscars!" hahahhahah!

[HDNiko]

c'è rimasto male Tom hanks lo meritava anche lui in salvate il soldato ryan , GRANDE FILM

[nebli]

this is not the real oscar moment?

[TNO73]

People can say whatever they want good or bad about La Vita Bella (Life is Beautiful), but for me it a fantastic movie that never fails to move me in an emotional way. And no matter how many times I see it I always cry at the end.

[jackalizator]

certo che far ridere jim carrey... grande

[yukarishingame]

secondo me era meglio "salvate il soldato Ryan".....niente contro Benigni, per carità, però...

[NenitaTransex]

@yukarishingame machhè cavolo stai dicendoooooooooooooo...maremma bona¡¡¡¡. Benigni è stato bravissimoooo in questo film. Non dire bischerate¡¡¡

[blindboyfly]

@yukarishingame benigni...è geniale...nessuno è all'altezza!!! salvate il soldato ryan è bello...ma la vita è bella gli fa 100000000 a 0

[jjzgamer]

"I would like to be Jupiter and kidnap everybody and lie down in the filmament making love to everybody!"

Most epic Oscar acceptance line EVER!

[TheGiacomopuccini]

@jjzgamer firmament ;)

[pintuforever]

-My body in in TUMULT!!!

ahahahaha Benigni sei un grande, uno dei pochi grandi GENI italiani! grazie d'esistere

[maferr1994]

2:41 her face! :/

[ShootEmUpSteve]

EPIC. 

[thenewmodfather]

nobody deserved it more that year

[partsovone]

Non ci credeva neanche lui! :D

[TessyClaireBear]

I love Tom Hanks and Ian Mckellens' reactions.

[lilleblomst84]

I love him.

[tmoneyla]

caro mio!



[brandinhon23]

ESTE OSCAR SE LO MERECIA EDWARD NORTON TODA LA VIDA SE LO ROBARON FUE UNA ACTUACION SOBERBIA,LA MEJOR ACTUACION QUE SE PUDO HABER HECHO.

[cvezjos]

@brandinhon23 fue grandiosa si yo vi el film, pero Roberto se lo mereció, hizo una espectacular interpretación llevándonos de la alegría al llanto con una facilidad que hace de estas una de las mejores películas que vi....Norton fue el segundo...es un gran actor, unos de mis favoritos diría yo. saludos.

[welcometotheshack]

edward norton's performance was definitely oscar worthy and could've won any other year except this because benigni's peformance was just that good

[ThirdReich100]

Roberto Benigni won an oscar and Gary oldman has not even been nominated. What a bunch of crap.

[Lucignolone90]

@ThirdReich100 Benigni was amazing in this movie

[pier755]

@ThirdReich100 What a stupid comparison.

[SuperArchitect101]

This man is pure passion! Brilliant!

[SuperArchitect101]

This man is pure passion!

[blackeagle041]

This Man right here, is one of last flickers of hope for my country. Thank you Roberto!

[ilgattObeso]

grandissimo benigni!l'italia ti adora

[Aneurysmization]

Эдвард Нортон (Edward Norton) был круче...

[Valeria3092]

GRazie a te ROBERTO

[bigjoetube]

His performance, and his movie, were nothing short of magnificent.

[88Greace]

GRAZIE ROBERTO!!W LA BELLA ITALIA

[amylouisepepper]

His joy and honest appreciation just makes you smile.

[TheSuelber]

It's unbelievable that Jim Carrey did not receive a nomination for his magnificent performance in The Truman Show, where he won Best Actor - Motion Picture Drama.

[gavat88]

The oscars would be so much more fun to watch if everyone who won were Italian

[Umbreakable94]

ROBERTO THE BEST!!!

[DavideT2207]

Grazie Roberto.

[DSQTTANTI]

He sounds like like the dude from "District 9"

[letithatter]

cosa vuol dire commento in sospeso per approvazione?!

[letithatter]

Eravamo ammirati grazie a geni come Benigni,oggi ci ridicolizzano a causa di buffoni come Berlusconi. CHE TRISTEZZA!

[TheAlexx27]

Should have been Edward Norton hands down.

[rockboysrwe]

@TheAlexx27 You clearly have seen La vita è bella so

[eLyske]

The wicked moment when Roberto Benigni's words meet Jim Carrey's laugh. The two best comedians of all time.

[PS2hobby]

@eLyske AGREE :D

[LizzieBennet01]

2:44 Grazie all'Italia. Benigni è uno dei (purtroppo pochi) motivi che mi rende fiera di essere italiana, sentirlo parlare dell'Italia mi piace tantissimo, ho un amore sconfinato per questo paese... Grazie Roberto :D

[JaimeinUK]

I didn't detect any Italian accent, man

[darcass69]

Roberto Benigni is Epic

[piterscott]

Roberto Benigni is stupid performance

[amedeus1995amedeo]

@piterscott and you are a stupid man.....

[wolly1979]

stupendo..troppo forte!

[MrSimpsy87]

2:41 Helen Hunt's face :)

[HandyRaib]

Roberto, your english is very bad XD

Well, I love you <3

[DonRMB]

2:16 ¨What the hell is this guy saying??.. Oh the camera´s on me, quick Jim do something!.. *Fake Smile*¨

[MrSere1903]

@DonRMB thats right..Jim would have gotten it

[dldee912]

Who is the composer of the music at 3:05?

[WeaponXXIV]

I think at least three people deserved this over Benigni

[pongolein]

il momento più alto del nostro cinema nel mondo (forse dopo Fellini)... Al giorno d'oggi il nostro cinema è fatto solo di commedie scadenti e i soliti film drammatici/sentimentali visti e rivisti...Grazie Roberto per aver contribuito a fare grande l'Italia nel mondo, sei il nostro orgoglio.

[danteale83]

@pongolein O di fiction sulla polizia...siamo pure rifiniti a riciclare i telefilm austro/tedeschi, tipo quella merda di Cobra11...povera televisione...

[imvigaoftheworld]

Perchè urla?

why he shouths?

Grande roberto!

[arwenaann]

Ed Norton was AMAZING in "American History X"!!! He needs roles like this nowadays

[AcademyAwardsPerson]

Helen Hunt's hair is scaring me.

[Fazioma00]

Edward Norton is the best actor in the word in my opinion.. But benigni did a masterpiece called ''Life is beautiful''.. First watch the benigni's film, and then you can say if he didn't deserve this oscar..

[MissKucabara]

I wonder if english people understand what he say...because italian people do!

[ShockWave241]

ROBERTO RULES

[vadimzdonutube]

norton lost to cuba gooding jr and this clown??? un-fucking-believable.

[yingwangsays]

@vadimzdonutube roberto benigni is not a clown. he's one of the acting greats!

[xxChiQuiTitaxx73]

@vadimzdonutube this clown? HAVE YOU SEEN his movie? now you'll know why he won best foreign picture and best actor! if you have and you think he's a clown then you just don't have a ense of humor! he's just so kind and funny and happy! the world be much better if we had nice people like him

[xxChiQuiTitaxx73]

@vadimzdonutube this clown? HAVE YOU SEEN THE MOVIE,? you'll see then why he won best actor and best foreign picture, h'es not a clown he's just a funny , kind person! the world be much better if we had nice people like him

[generalbagsik]

@vadimzdonutube Watch his film then die in a hole.

[deslynam01]

edward norton was robbed by begnini's oscar gold

[dreamtstreet]

Edward Norton should have one but i am glad that Roberto Benigni won.

[America4ever97]

Roberto...l'unica persona italiana che mi fa essere fiera di esserlo anch'io!! <3

[voiovedestecose]

@America4ever97 Anche se LA VITA E' BELLA è una forza della Natura, una POESIA che rende onore al genere umano, non direi che solo Benigni mi fa essere fiero di essere Italiano, ma anche ad esempio tutti quelli che lavorano con onestà per il bene della Famiglia educando i figli all'onestà ed anche tutti quelli che dicono di amare il film LA VITA E' BELLA!

[fiorinodoro]

@YamatanoOrochi1 Esatto!!!!!!

[JohnTripinTokyo]

I really like his performance in the film, but jesus. This speech is ridiculous.

[missshaolin89]

@JohnTripinTokyo noooo è solo sincero =)

[madmatt06lol]

LOL Jim Carrey's face on 2:17

[AcademyAwardsPerson]

@madmatt06lol He's probably thinking, "You stole my Oscar, bitch!"

[emanubuff]

Che uomo

[boski05]

This guy is amazing.

[jimbo271uk]

Nick Nolte looked so pissed off

[missvannelli]

Ha battuto solo gente come Tom Hanks, Edward Norton, Nick Nolte ecc ecc... NIENTE, INSOMMA! Benigni rimane uno dei pochi motivi per cui sono FIERA di essere italiana!!!

[ThePumpkinPals]

Norton should have won this.

[nahch1990]

I can presume what Jim Carrey was thinking at this moment...

[q888868]

This is Oscar's mistake ,  Benigni ,He is an idiot !

[AlesSimoncia]

@q888868 and you are a son of a bitch

[AlesSimoncia]

@q888868 and you are a moron

[AlesSimoncia]

@q888868 and you are a son of a *****

[1StIwY1]

@q888868 I agree. Benigni don't deserve any Oscar.

[MELARASTA]

@q888868 wash your mouth before speaking Benigni, moron

[rosabianchissima]

@q888868 did u see "la vita è bella?"

[NICOLA3462]

@q888868 FUCK YOU

[inter2997]

@q888868

sei solo un coglione!!!

[nautron100]

@q888868 obviously, you have not seen the movie

[ChicoBlancoFilms]

Italiana! Ma Ma Mia!

I from India, but I still celebrate!

-Abisch

[Reinpret]

man, what a seriously hard one to call. for my money it would have been Edward Norton, i think he is superb. But so is everyone else. I was moved by Benigni's performance like all of you.. this is one of the hardest ones to call..

[Rumisonqqo]

Well, to win over Tom Hanks you gotta get an awesome performance.

[Ricciuto9]

nice to see him win but i think when you look at who was nominated that year you couldnt even come close to a decision on who should have won

[genkster]

if americans knew him like italians do

than they would really understand thats he's gods gift

[fiorinodoro]

@genkster

[fiorinodoro]

@genkster Bravo!

[arnie4707]

Roberto!!! He was the best!!! Congratulations

[albertstock85]

Man, Jim Carrey is thinking "why only foreign comics?"

[vadimzdonutube]

this was nothing more than a publicity stunt, benigni;s performance is inferior to norton, hanks and mckellen's work

[berkamilan]

They should have had 2 Oscars that year -> one, automatically, for Edward Norton and second one, to give it to winner of the competition. Because, honesty, Edward Norton's performance was unrivaled.

[MrMisho74]

BRAVISSIMO.......ROBERTO !!! your film is GREAT....tank you!!!

[captainjjb84]

Edward Norton should have won. His performance was so powerful in AH X

[anvedila]

SEi e sarai unico Benigni.....l'orgoglio italiano anche per noi al estero.....mitico!!!! Cé ne sarebberò altri come te...!!

[83mizar]

I understand what he says about Robert after he won

[jamietotz]

aww hell no. Edward Norton is more deserving of this Oscar!

[burrowsshreds]

If it hadn't been for Spielberg and Saving Private Ryan, I would have wanted Benigni to be the first person to get Best Director and Actor.

[Kenshiroit]

Matt le Blanck deserve a oscar....

[MGSmucker64]

I dont think I have ever seen a man so happy in my life

[Kenshiroit]

I would love to see a movie with benigni and Robin William

[Geitojm]

But I'm open to win some others oscars!!

Every time i watch it it makes me remember to be proud of being italian. He is not only a brilliant actor, he is also an amazing person inside. He has more knowledge of the things that matter ( like the divina commedia) that anyone that commented! He is one of the few actor (well actually the only one right now) that has a diploma in literature and a vast culture. Ro
