  • the most fair Oscar awards i have seen till date. best actor -sean ,best actress -kate

  • finally, someone who actually diserves an oscar..He's an amazing actor, amazing producer and most of all an amazing guy! Hands up from Japan :D

  • hes right bigotry is learned in the home and on fox news

  • two academy awards that boy is bad

  • Sean is great but Mickey Rourke definitely should have won

  • One of the best actors with De Niro,Pacino,Nicholson and Day Lewis. He got the standing ovation too thats not for everyone but for Sean Penn it is very well deserved.

  • Sean Penn is such a fucking hypocrite, he supports gay rights but then he praises and hangs out with people like Hugo Chavez who hates gays with a passion and Castro who put gays in labor camps because he hates them.

  • @jbcowdery You know what, that's an excellent point. I was just in Cuba and, oh wait, the gays were all hanging out on the Malecon having a huge party. So I guess the "old man" isn't putting them in camps anymore. Not saying Castro isn't a murdering fuck, he is. I know Sean. I think he tries as best he can to be pretty tolerant.

  • I miss Chris Penn

  • @Lostdog171 - I totally agree. People came down on him for talking so seriously about the topics connected to Milk, but the topics connected to Milk ARE serious. People who knew Harvey see the way he talks about gay rights, and are happy that he is taking it so seriously. If he had been up there joking around, it would look like he didn't care.

  • Mr. Penn needs to quit smoking for the sake of his face.

  • wow he takes himself seriously... what a dick 

  • his best movie was i am sam. brilliant performance!

  • @Chutneybhai idk i think i am sam tied with mystic river

  • Nobody can deny this man is one of the best actors ever and I'm glad to see how intelligent he is. The time for equal rights is going to come. It' just common sense.

  • i live in badaxe michigan which is just a very small town right on the tip of the thumb and sean penn is here right now filming a movie!!! everyone here knows obviously cuz news spread so fast and i got to MEET him!!!!!!!!! he is amazing so kool ikr?!? lol

  • These are human needs and they will be... got.XD

    Sean is so wonderful for the things he's done for the world

    that first answer was so brilliant!!

    and he is very nice-looking in this video:-)

    he is a very nice-looking man

    Sean Penn rules!!!

  • sean penn is my favorite actor and is one of the greatest of all time

  • sean have that f... cool italo-stereotype !

  • fast times at ridgemont high!!

  • And the nominees for best person ever are: Jesus Chris, Martin Luthar King Jr., Ghandi, Mother Theresa, Abraham Lincoln, and Sean Penn. And the winner is..............Sean Penn for his brilliant portrail of the gay civil rights advocate Harvey Milk. Sean Penn is going to save the world, end world hunger, find Osama Ben Laden, end unemployment, end Justin Bieber, and make mars inhabitable all with his wonderful, super acting skills. Super Man? or Sean Penn? I can't tell the difference.

  • @BenBeanin Well he is definitely better than Mother Theresa, the lunatic, maybe not Ghandi or Lincoln though. I dare say he's been better than Jesus Chris and Martin Luthar King.

  •  sean penn is awsome

  • Damn, I hate these commercial intros!!!

  • a great actor, excellent, powerful one indeed and a jewel of a person. A true role model.

  • I love SeanPenn

  • What a class act, impressive.

  • 2:58

    lmao!!! To your right ... "no your left!! Our right!!"

  • Sean Penn validates Communist dictators so well, he just might want to play one in the movies! Milk, never saw it, but I've seen the crap he's produced in the past, so I will have to say the gay's prop'd up Milk as some kind of great film about the Mayor of San Fran. To me, paying good money to see films of such distasteful subject matter, it's this kind of dribble that keeps companies such as Tums & Milk of Magnesia in business. - Academy, shame, shame!

  • @QuadSonicStereo moron...also

  • how is the world a better place to live because of an actor?

  • How can you not say that Chavez is a dictator. WTF!

  • Look, Chavez is democratically elected. Pretty much not a dictator by definition. You can disagree with his policies, but he does abide by the popular vote.

  • Today is a better actor of the world, best than De Niro and Pacino

  • I really like Sean Penn. He's such a .. good man. And someone I definetly look up to.

    And he is hot.!

  • fuck me sean

    youre one of my favorite actors

  • ...the Pennmeister!

  • I think he is a very handsome man

  • i loved his film "bad boys'

  • It's funny because every time I listen to Americans speaking about communism it's not only the same predictable shit but a clear exibition of hate and ignorance. Don't get me wrong, I dont like communism myself, but for entirely diff reasons than u. Just read a book or something.

  • Oh gee, how many times has my country been fucked by a revolution? I dont know, but Greece ahs been SAVED by revolutions many, many, many times. The most recent being in 73 when the students overthrew the America-supported Junta. You are the land of the world-wide expliotation and home of the world-wide Dicators, which is something we never forget.

  • @avend666 Like I said and you suffer from Ameriphobia..America is the land of the free and home of the brave and don't you forget that you fucking commie leftist parasite.,

  • Right man, you keep saying that to yourself and someday you might even grow to believe it. At least where I live we don't worry about getting shot round every other corner and we can study and go to a hospital for (almost) free.

  • That was great what Sean said about Mickey Rourke. Those two should really act together someday - the sooner the better.

  • Sean is a great actor. Through his life and his hard work, he makes a difference in the lives of so many and this world a better place to live. Thanks Sean! Super work!

  • Don't mean nothin' man. Notta thing!

  • @Jessecraft1954 well said, Sean Penn is a true American hero!

  • @oneirishpoet

    Yep, an american hero

    With love from New Zealand, u stay classy sean

    Same goes for all of seans fans

  • what are you people talking about, sean penn is an amazing actor.

    what are you, homophobes?

  • He'll always be Spicoli to me.

    "Hey, bud, let's party!"

  • I wish I lived in amarica

  • Sean was very professional, formal and polite. The lady doing the talking was an inconsiderate, impatient bitch.

  • thats why we all know him and nobody knows you. You are a good for nothing nobody and you will always be that. Pathetic mistake of a human.

  • I like him he did very good job

    in the Movie Milk.

  • His best movie is At Close Range, early in his career when he was very young and impressionable. Make sure you watch it.

  • I'd say his best movie is dead man walking

  • i just love him 8)

  • yeah Penn excelled in Milk, he is amazing, thank god for people like Sean, did anyone see Elephant

  • Good on ya Sean!!

  • i Love him in Mysterious River and Milk Sure

    Those Are The Best Movies Sean Beside u r Hot

    LOVE YOU.....

  • It's called Mystic River

  • I am Sam is a very good movie

    I love it

  • remember the classics

    hey bud lets party

  • mickey rourke!!!!

  • Sean Penn is the man of truth :)

  • hahahahha his face is funny when listening questions. idk why but even though he is a lil bit old for me, i still think he is really handsome!!!

  • he was handsome in dead man walking

  • he played that cop who's daughter was raped and killed and thought it was is old neiborhood friend.. he was fuckin good in that,... real tuff guy shit...mafia kinda power thing.

  • You guys are dissing him because of him not being great speaker like obama or whatever,but fact is that he won oscar and a very good actor. Well done dude!

  • Maybe he doesn't know how to express his feelings or maybe he has so much to say on the subject that he doesn' know where to begin. These are deep and delicate questions that they are asking him and he needs to know how to put it in words specially since that is his job, he is an actor. I am sure he had to deeply understand these gay movements in order to do a movie and win the oscar. Impossible to judge based on these 4:30 mins.

  • so clever, so interesting, so hot, so human! Perfect man! je veux le même!

  • me voilà...!

  • parfait...si tu ne ressembles ni à elvis ni à un des representants de la vague rockabilly...

  • hahahahha.....et alors elvis il était pas mal,....

  • I love this man.

  • i love u!!! i love his movie i am sam sooo much i cried alott!!!!!!!!u rock sean!

  • I take it you're a right winger, who thinks that all liberals are godless evil anti-american terrosist supporters

    And that Sarah Palin is an angel and a great human being, adn George Bush is a great terrorist fighter, fighting the evil force of Islam

  • he's total spucolie

  • HOMOPHOBIA IS GAY!!!!! EQUAL RIGHTS

  • Sean Penn is such a gr8 actor bt I hate him seeing endorsing homosexuality.......

  • A human need????

  • I'm not gay. I support civil rights and if two people are in love then they should be able to express that love in any way they want to.

    Well done Sean!!

  • I totally agree!

  • oh my god......

    sean penn is a very great actor!

    i love him <3

    he looks awesome in his outfit

    <3

  • I hate SOME people that go to a page and offend the person who the video is about.

    In my opinion Sean Penn deserved a lot this oscar, and he was so mutch elegant in the cerimony, his spech was so mutch inteligent and his answears in this interview were amazing.

    That's just my opinion, and I, please, ask respect about it.

    Would be good if everybody could give your opinion educadely.

    And I'm sorry if I made some mistake in the english, that's because I'm foreign.

  • I think that Americans are the ones that need a new education.

  • My ancestors came from Europe. Your response only proves my point.

  • You are right sir, I am American and I know that many Americans are just drones and do not think that well, with all the television being watch and food that is consumed.

  • It's sad, but very true. Many have been locked into American Idol while eating their super sized fries for years! I think that America has a lot of potential, as well as many bright educators, BUT there are people in this country that hold us back as a society. I live in Oklahoma, and it always amazes me at the ignorance that I am surrounded by. People stil think blacks should be slaves, and gays are taking over the world. Look at countries like Denmark who no longer have these issues!

  • i wonder if he practices what he preach i wonder what he would do if his son was gay lol but good actor..damn why does he always look so mean sometimes it seems like he has no sense of humor like someone sucked his soul out of him

  • what a class act!

  • sean penn has seriously aged since winning his 1st oscar.

  • Comment removed

  • I agree; it's a human need.

  • He might be, but seriously, the world is mature enough for gays to finally have equal rights and if that's what this very arrogant guy supports, then I support him at least as far as his gay right policies go.

  • Sean Penn looks so stylish in his outfit!

  • best mickey rourke!!!

  • Graet actor! I love Sean!

  • what sign's are they talking about??

  • amazing guy!

  • Mickey Rourke should have won the Oscar!!!

  • Yes Mickey Rourke is poetic.

  • He's really a lovely guy, great and very intelligent person...no matter how dissapointed I was with his win I can't stop admiring him ;-)) The way he talks about Mickey...it's touching

  • have you seen Milk? if you haven't i wouldn't even talk. Sean did such an amazing job, he didn't win because he was a poster boy,

    he won because he WAS harvey milk.

    watch the movie, then you can critizise

  • ok this is what i say when ppl ask y im gay

    i would rather marry a man and live my life happy rather they marry a woman and not live a happy life

  • well when people ask y i plug my rubber pussy,I say,because it feels the same,when its over its over,ya get it whenever you want,no disease no babies.

    Now theres happiness.;~^

  • The government MUST give freedom for the gay and lesbian community, because they are our brothers and sisters, too.

    God love them, too!!!

    Please mind your business!!!

    If you say you try save gay/lesbian people from sins of being who they are, do you think that being religious/straight people are sinless?

    So, before you save them please save yourselves first, because we are sinners and don't try become an idiot hero.

    So just let them happy by letting them marry.

    peace!!!!

  • AMEN TO THAT!!!!!!!

  • Who were the people with the signs? The Phelps? How embarrasing.

  • Sean totally deserved the Oscar for best acter!!I saw Milk twice and I have seen him in 3 other movies and Milk is by far his best performance! I agree what he said about prop h8,the people for prop h8 are afraid of gay people gaining equal rights because they are afraid of change in society.Just as certain white people were afraid of blacks and other racial minorites gaining more equal rights because they were afraid of change in society as well. Gays are people too and they desserve equality!

  • Mickey Rourke deserved that Oscar more. Did you even watch the Wrestler once? Unfortunately, the Academy could not award an Oscar for a character that was a washed-up wrestler played by Mickey Rourke whom they do not like. Sean Penn told local reporters in Los Angeles that he did not expect to win and was totally surprised he won. Hence, the shout out to Mickey Rourke during his speech. Mickey Rourke is not only one of Sean Penn's closest friends, but one of his acting idols.

  • No I haven't seen the Wrestler yet but I will eventually. Either I'll change my mind of who should have won best actor or It'll remain the same as before. But I think Mickey was GREAT in Sin City though :D !!!

  • 1:14 - The weird thing about Penn is that you can never tell, through his grimaces, whether he's angry, about to cry, or if its just his natural expression.

  • I still do not understand why some people feel intimidated by the fact that two people of the same sex can get married. Will that ruin the marriage of a strait couple? Why can't everybody mind his own business?

  • Religion is to blame.

  • E X A C T L Y.

  • and even moreso when two people are married they have the "bieng togethor for life feeling" and they wont look like a gilrfriend boyfriend fer life. its eisier with that ring they can truly devote themselves to eachother

  • Good to know there are some liberal rockers and metalheads overseas! Take care man!Cheers!

    P.S Penn is a close friend of Metallica (in case you didn't know)

  • hmm no i didn't thanks man

  • Dido!!!! Let the gays marry and the people for h8 should mind their own business !!!!!!!!!!!! How would they like being targeted by a political group not being able to marry the man or woman they want ????? They should think about THAT !!!!

  • I dont care....

  • why you rating me at -15

    that movie was so bad

    it was gay movie..

    yeeeeeeeeeeeeek..

  • a fucking piece of shit, whop fucking cares, there are kids who are getting arms cut off in wars, live in poverty and have nothing. Girls get sold in third world countries I don't give a shit if homos can't marry. This guy could use his celebrity for good use instead of this shit.

  • You asked who cares? Well all gay people, their families and friends around the world care. I'm gay and I just got married. Both of us had our FULL family, friends and work colleagues support. His celebrity is being used for good. Your discrimination against gays has continued to fall globally. You are out of date and you are losing your homophobic ignorant battle. You'd do better spending your energies on positive things. You'd be a much happier person!

  • I dont discrimate i just dont care! I help poor kids, gay marriage is probably at the bottom of my list of political list of issues. I have gay friends to by the way, I just don't care. Do what you want to do. It is not an important issue to me. Most people don't care.

  • You are so full of shit. No gay man is friends with you, you would know what friendship even is. Helping the poor? Is that ALL you do? Are you just a 1 trick pony? We all help the poor. I grew up poor and gay and I dont care what your issues are you do discriminate. Your name says it all. RETARD.

  • That Oscar was for Mickey Rourke...he was robbed by Penn

  • true that Sean Penn

  • How very ignorant SerpantSlayer1... I bet you haven't seen Milk and how can you call Penn a 'never-has-been'?? He's clearly had a hugely successful career and life!

  • he rocks!

  • great man, great actor, great performance.

  • For a second there, I thought I saw smoke coming from his ears..do to his brain burning from the questions..

  • There were ALOT better actors and movies up for an Oscar ,than a washed up never-has-been like Sean Penn,in this movie that hardly made a dent at the box office compared to the other nominated movies .

    Guess all you have to do is include a gay theme in your movie theses days, to almost guarantee that the powers-that -be will feel compelled to give you the Oscar nod...whether its a good movie or not. Whats the point of an Oscar these days?It used to have something to do with good acting.

  • Serpent: What a crock of ignorant SHIT!!!

    This is about ART, not box-office numbers. Clearly, you're misinformed about the criteria involved at the AMPAS.

    If you want to bash an artist, try Julia Roberts, Gwentyth Paltrow and countless others who represent the mass box office appeal. Pffffftttt!!

  • He won because he did a good job acting in a great movie. It has nothing to do with a gay theme...

  • what an insightful person, well done him

  • Great actor of all time Sean Penn ;)

  • TO YOUR LEFT MR. PENN

  • Comment removed

  • Sean Penn fucking rules, he deserved it and no one else.

  • No! you will rot in hell and you're angry because you know that!

  • zip up coleharvey242, your ignorance is showing.

  • I think your a gay who is still hiding in his closet. You homophobe douchebag. I bet they think that people like you should burn in hell. What would you say to that?

  • lol

  • ok well you just contradicted yourself, if im a homophobe how am i gay??? lol idiot.

    I would say that anyone who is gay is ok with me, as long as they dont fucking show off their gay asses like most of them do... But still gay marriage should never be legal. and its bullshit how on the oscars a gay comes out and says how gays will be allowed to marry. and god loves them all.... makes me sick, its about movies not fags.

  • I call you gay because you said that all gays should burn in hell. Because homophobes are just petrified of gays but most of the time, homophobes actually are gay but they exert their feelings to prevent that inner gay prisoner from coming out.

    And you just contradicted yourself. If anyone who is gay is ok by you, then why do you continue to call them fags and for being able to pursue gay rights and by saying it should never be legal. Moron before you present a formidable point, think first.

  • saying gay people are ok but i dont think they should be married is not contradiction. Refer it to me saying i like soccer, but i dont like french soccer teams for instance, that is not contradiction at all. Learn the meaning of the word before you try to use it on me. And seriously do you think it is healthy for children to grow up with 2 gay parents that are married... Hell no. Bad parents encourage bad children to be like the parents.

  • actually Gay studies have showned that children (adopted obviously) of Gay parents are healthier and do better than children of straight parents in every field (e.g. better social skills and excelling in academia) and there is no evidence that children of gay parents are more likely than children of straight parents to turn gay

  • of course the studies are slightly biased in that only gay men are studied because lesbians are harder to study, and that gay couples who choose to adopt are generally better equipped to raise a child than those who don't; also adopted girls of gay men do especially well because there is sort of the girls-raised-by-fathers-tend-t­o-be-smarter effect

    but still, these facts still contradict the popular (and misguided belief) that children of gay couple will become gay (or unhealthy in some way)

  • so please people, check your facts before you make such cock-eyed judgment that gay people are not equipped to raise children and/or they should not have the right to get married

  • Wow, dude you missed the whole point of what i said. But we could just agree to disagree. Hell with it, to each his own You believe one thing and i believe the other. Honestly, people can grow up however they wish or please. But we cant say how a person SHOULD raise a child, its not our business. I cant tell dictate what people do behind closed doors. Like i said To each his own. If the gay parents raise the child with correct values, right from wrong, morals then its all right with me.

  • It's about people from every where of every gender and every race coming together. That includes gay's. Get over yourself. Juts because they're gay doesn't mean they're going to crack onto you.

    loser.

  • Why does he look like hes going to cry every time he talks?
