Robert DeNiro winning an Oscar® for "The Godfather Part II"

[joker316ful]

V GAZZOOOOOOOOOO

[longhorns13192]

he's such a cool cat, no emotion just chilling has other people getting up to except his awards

[nomibe2911]

Why didn't Robert show up? WTF. 

[smichelle65]

All the nominees look like they wanna go up there and kick Ryan's ass; see how he nudges her at 1:49 to signal her to talk!

[razbigranicu]

Tatum and Ryan making their crappy family sitcom on the stage...

[Jordi1207]

poor tatum

[massivecrown]

You know anyone name Iris?

[pollockdonald]

de niro should have also won for cape fear, the deer hunter, taxi driver, heat and goodfellas

[gusyyy23]

Godfather everywere! 

[capricancer1000]

Ryan O'Neal is a scumbag, he's obviously raging mad for whatever reason, I'm surprised he didn't start choking his daughter on stage.

[SeiFSuper]

he damn deserve it !!

[RealDefentertainment]

Ryan Oh Ryan life is a bitch.. look what you have become

[SuperJuliusC]

@RealDefentertainment "Tatum! You have too much screen-time..."

[theballer04]

BOB HOPE, BITCHES

[junior0149]

The little girl was fucking up by not saying who the nominanees were and what movies they were in. Her dad had to step in. It's not that he was stealing the spot light. She was about to fuck up.

[Starkardur]

After the ceremony Ryan dragged his 11 year old daughter Tatum to a bar where they got hammered and snorted 2 lines of coke and then Ryan slept with 3 women in front of Tatum. This man is disgust.

[ARSONISTJOE]

BORING EXPLANATION RYAN, thank god they don't explain the voting process nowadays XD

[EarthlingChild]

De niro :Vito Corleone

Brando:Vito Coleone

I like how de niro kept the tradition of not even turning up to accept the award EPIC!

[EarthlingChild]

De niro :Vito Corleone

Brando:Vito Coleone

I like how de niro kept the tradition of not even turning up to accept the award EPIC!

[ciaobellakate]

O'Neil is the worst father ever.

[toby099]

all the cool actors like deniro, brando, george c scott stay home when they win their oscars

[1992corleonesicilia]

@toby099 Umm. No.

[lordvoldemort578]

2:57 I think he's done a pretty good job so far. Im also viewer # 96,666 Heat, Goodfellas Raging Bull

[leafyutube]

It's good that Hyman Roth and Frankie attended considering they were killed in the movie.

[88mphsss]

Who's a better host, Hope or Carson?

[leonardodp34]

2:48 - Premonition: Coppola really knew what he was talking about, didn't he?

[lotzapoppa89]

what a bad father

[Ktig88]

Ryan O'Neil is one of the Biggest Douchebags in the History of Film

[alebecks]

Wow look how he gave a little punch with his elbow at 1:48

[curtisjones400]

@alebecks It is sad that Tatum and Ryan do not get along today-I saw them on a television interview and Tatum said that it was the 1st time she has spoken to her father in years-Thy were trying to get in some type of family therapy

[themightydodo]

the true story is that he didnt show up at the oscars because he didnt think he would win!

[brainsick213]

3 actors in one film? is that possible?

[epicvlas]

for fuck sake i mean deniro is alwais imitating brando in evritzng so..... zou know. cos brando didnt want the oscar ..... deniro had to do a fucking paret parade!

[kieranmatiz]

Not too many nominations for The Godfather Part II lol

[WalterLiddy]

Jesus you people need to get a clue. All he did was stop her from opening the envelope before the nominees had been announced. He wasn't mean about it and after all he let her read out the winner.

[TheLastMoonshine]

I think the true reason why De Niro didn't show up was that, for his role, he had transformed himself into Marlon Brando ...

[bulletz4life]

@TheLastMoonshine I doubt it because if you look from the other times he was nominated, hes usually not at the oscars.

[GabiMuse6]

No wonder Tatum is so messed up. Her dad is a jerk and you can tell he wants to hit his own daughter. You can tell he has that temperament. So sad.

[CroPETROforever]

De niro is great actor, but I always had a feeling he is little bit a egoistic person... like really... that why my best actor is AL PACINO

[liquidkraken]

that dress is very revealing for a young girl..

[whuboi962011]

I had a feeling an actor from the godfather might win.

[lionardo9]

how can De Niro miss this ? :/

[rivermoonrise]

Jeez, that whole thing between Ryan and Tatum O'Neal was just uncomfortable to watch.

[virtualsnake1994]

deniro is such a badass that he doesnt even go to the places they call him...

[jamietotz]

Michael V. GAAAH-zo in The Godfather Part II. Cracks me up everytime!

[traneluv]

Just to see Jack Nicholson sitting next to Fred Astaire.....holy mother of christ

[SteveResin]

I love the way there's no dramatic pause with her announcement, lmao... just fast as fuck "andthewinnerisrobertdenirofor­thegodfatherrrrrrr"

[theballer04]

Haha they almost fucked up! Ryan was more nervous than his daughter! Oh man, oh god, oh man, oh god, oh man, oh god

[TheKid752]

why do all the actors and actress never showed up to win their award ?? Robert De Niro why???

[timothyw98]

De Niro best performance will always be Taxi Driver, hands down, his best role

[missisfreddiemercury]

Tatum was adorable :)

[jroeder0]

Phenomenal performance.

[Kondzio717]

Someone once said why this De Niro role is so big masterpiece. It's because Robert wasn't playing young Vito Corleone - he was playing young Marlon Brando who was playing young Vito Corleone.

[joker316ful]

michael v gazzoooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooo

[joker316ful]

michael v gazzoooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooo

[Goodfellas61]

Al Pacino should have won the Oscar in this film, his performance as Michael Corleone was great, even better than Robert De Niro.

[spxeli]

@Goodfellas61 No, he wasn't better in my opinion. I think the fact that DeNiro was working off a blueprint of a character that Brando already created in the first movie speaks volumes of how much work Bobby D put into it and it shows with his performance. Pacino was equally as great though. And I agree, he did deserve the award. His lose was a complete travesty imo.

[Theargoytimecompany]

1:57 oh my god!!!! ITS THE DUDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[napoli4ever0]

1:48

LOOOOOOOOOOL

[MagnaThor]

Graaacieee, graaacieee.... fucking LOVE young Vito.

[Barefoot67]

Al pacino is way better than de niro in godfather I think

[TonyUSATony]

@Barefoot67 Hey... I have a question to ask you and all the others like you. What is it that drives your kind to senselessly compare great talents like Pacino and De Niro? I like them both. I think they're magnificent marvels of their craft. I wouldn't be caught dead claiming one is better than the other. No true appreciator of film, theater, broadway, and all the performers would ever do such a thing. Greatness is to be appreciated - and never measured on a scale.

[RifatDraga08]

DeNiro stole al pacino the show :D

[changez07]

where the heck was he?

[GangGreen80]

@changez07 i think i have an idea lol

[AStopMotionChannel]

I noticed that Robert De Niro didn't show up to any Oscar ceremonies he was nominated at until he won for Raging Bull. I wonder why that is...

[ghost234346]

@AStopMotionChannel why ?

[kingcaesar5]

@AStopMotionChannel he was the frontrunner for Raging Bull, all the precursors pointed to him, and rightfully so.

[Bullz4eva93]

What the hell was De Niro doing that was more important than winning the award at this time? Like really

[kingcaesar5]

@Bullz4eva93 1) he was shooting a movie in Italy 2) everyone thought Astaire was going to win (Bob wasn't even nominated for a golden globe) so why fly all the way from Italy and lose 3) a lot of actors don't think oscars are all that important 4) he's Robert Fucking De Niro.

[kingcaesar5]

@Bullz4eva93 1) he was shooting a movie in Italy 2) everyone thought Astaire was going to win (Bob wasn't even nominated for a golden globe) so why fly all the way from Italy and lose 3) a lot of actors don't think oscars are all that important 4) he's Robert De Niro.

[Mowgli15221]

@Bullz4eva93 So True! He was absolutely BRILLIANT in the role of Michael Corleone. This special moment will never be repeated in history. He miss it.

[pinksugarganster]

@Bullz4eva93 he had acting commitments in italy to film the movie called 1900.

[FUwogs]

@Bullz4eva93 he was fucking your dad

[justinrockercts]

@Bullz4eva93 He had a scheduling conflict and was filming Bernardo Bertolucci's '1900' out of the US

[deeeeeeeeeznutssss]

@Bullz4eva93 just being Robert DeNiro, I'm sure.

[TheLastMoonshine]

@Bullz4eva93 I think De Niro was so absorbed into his role, he just kept on imitating Marlon Brando ...

[behebihou]

@TheLastMoonshine that was the role??

[DoubleTalkingJive]

@Bullz4eva93 Shooting "1900" with Bertolucci in Italy...

[KayWildcat]

@Bullz4eva93 Making a movie (taking part in shooting)...MUCH MORE IMPORTANT!

[juancarlos23alva]

@Bullz4eva93  cause the oscars are a BULLSHITT awards (learn from BRANDO)

[starsky1012]

@Bullz4eva93 chuck norris called at the last second.

[griffin324]

@Bullz4eva93 I think he was doing a play.

[bierbuik]

@Bullz4eva93 who gives a fuck about awards. De Niro doesnt, why should u

[outinsider]

@Bullz4eva93

Acting, of course.

[WizardGlik]

'Lil bit?

[jonbz17]

Even though he was in the movie for a small amount of time, he was amazing in this role. He really gave us an insight of Vito past life . Well deserved oscar..too bad pacino didnt win for playing the famous michael corleone

[johnyzero2000]

Geez Ryan you are so pathetic competing for the spotlight with your own goddamn daughter!

[PraetorShinzon]

@johnyzero2000 Also her dress was too skimpy

[GeneralArmorus]

enrich, eh?

[ToddSolley67]

Em198507 Art Carney DID win the Academy Award for "Harry and Tonto" as Best Actor.

[sovietsmirnoff]

Lee strasberg shoudve won the award

[rickup12]

de niro was in ittaly shooting 1900 i think...

[Shelby596]

Al Pacino should have won best actor that year. The Oscars SUCK.

[Em198507]

@Shelby596 art carney deserved the award...really...if you watch "harry and tonto", you will understand what i mean...

[vadimzdonutube]

@Em198507 over pacino and nicholson? i dont think so. i have seen chinatown, godfather part 2 and harry and tonto just so u know

[TheCheweeRevolutions]

as soon as i saw that guy stand up i thought, fuck robert let himself go...

[RK831]

I'm glad there wasn't a damn Indian protester accepting the award to make a stupid political statement.

[belikewater001]

@RK831 Youn need your scalp sliced off.

[Hyman74Roth]

Coopola's speech is a major understatement to De Niro's future.

[bawan44]

where was robert?

[feltedricky]

@bawan44 shooting taxi driver? that was his next movie. that's usually why people miss the awards

[Em198507]

@bawan44 he was in italy for bertolucci's 1900...

[csucsu80]

For that year they should have established a special cathegory: The Frankie Pentangeli Academy Award

[ahmedsalah86]

Where is Robert de Niro ??

why didn't he show up in the Oscars ??

[jonpaulmoen]

I bet they were both high that night. Either he was nervous or stoned. He almost had her just open it up before they announced the nominees.

[DonTrustZepHaters]

that kids dress is kinda low....

[binnoshi]

@DonTrustZepHaters maybe thats becoz it was in the 1970s !

[epicvlas]

it was a very bad moment that deniro did not recive his oscar personaly ..... !!! wat a fuck did he thik he was- marlon brando as a young man ..... ? !!! he was not BRANDO., BARANDO WAS TOTALY DIFRENT FROM DENIRO IN EVRY WAY BRANDO WAS A SEX SIMBOL A GENIUS ACTOR A MAN HO LOVED AMERICAN INDIANS AND A GOS OF CINEMA ! DINORO AT THAT TIME WAS JUST A SKINI HIPY HO WANTED TO IMITADE BRANDO BUT HE LOKED MORE LIKE BOGART NOT BRANDO.... !!!!!

[sonaliegh]

Thank GOD!! I've been waiting for this footage! I had only seen him accept the Oscar for Raging Bull but never this one. Thank you!

[ciaobellakate]

Jeff's a bit of a cutie.

[ACNC1]

Bet they where soo p1ssed when he no showed..especially after the Brando fiasco!! I think thats why DeNiro does´nt get asked to do the hands & feet imprints and the hollywood walk of fame!!!

[Shelby596]

Pacino should have won an Oscar for The Godfather.

[tubeskiller]

@Shelby596 ya, the best acting ever!

[gonzasabbath]

@Shelby596 Sure, and also for Scarface. But he got it, finally, for Scent of a woman, another gorgeous film.

[feltedricky]

@gonzasabbath not for scarface.

[generalmacedon]

He was right

[tmllac]

1:41 And 1:48 - Ryan is a great father.

[BigPostal]

HOW MANY TIMES HAS JEFF BRIDGES BEEN NOMINATED? HE LOOKS THE SAME

[robaquarian]

it was ryan's sone andher brother that killed coppola's son

[ervinpacino]

what about JOHN CAZALE man ?!he deserved also nomination !

'' i am your older brother mike and i was step'd over''

that's the way pap wanted it !

''and not the way i wanted it,i want some respect,i'm smart and not dumb like everyone says''

send FREDO do this send FREDO do that send FREDO to take care of mickey mouse night club''

what a performance a ???

[3DON291]

@ervinpacino totally agree with u man. loved him as fredo, not that i like that character that much because of what he did, but i felt bad for him, and he was a great actor. i wish he was still around, or at least lived a longer life. what a shame

[Marty0Mcfly]

Every single actor from godfather part II was nominated here?

[nbvu1]

from lightfoot to legacy, bridges brings magic.

[Jev0]

Thank you for this upload. Do you have Academy Awards from 1984? I would like to see Robert Duvall and his Oscar for Best Actor in "Tender Mercies"

Thank you again

[InvisibleDiary]

Jeff Bridges: "Yea...well...The Dude abides.

[99681655]

look 2:18 with glasse man say oh fuck

he is so worse bitch

[rampskater0102]

john cazale should have been nominated as well instead of michael v gazzo, not he was bad or anything but john was so much better, and if he didnt die so young he would be one of the modern great actors

[ahceda09]

what happen to those two how did they got involve with drugs

[hyghiaumtym]

alsooo, 1:57, freeze the video, haaaa it's john lennon :P :P :P

[hyghiaumtym]

3 things:

1. let's see who the nominees are. (NUDGE)

2. jeff bridges looks SO YOUNG!!! :O

3. it's quite obvious that francis ford coppola is obviously a slightly slimmer time travelling peter jackson :')

[majesticmaniac]

How pacino did not win is beyond me

[henrysinaga]

@majesticmaniac Art Carney deserved his oscar

[SuperYawo]

Jeff Bridges so young

[248productions]

Have you noticed that both Brando and DeNiro didn't show up to accept their awards for playing the SAME character? Weird

[TheStudyOfPedro]

where the heck is robert?

[LizDee1]

@TheStudyOfPedro

That wasn't uncommon back then.

I remember the Oscars from long ago, and a lot of the actors were absent from the award shows. Sometimes 2 from a category.

I think that's why they started giving out those elbaborate gift baskets, to give them a reason to show up.

[kingcaesar5]

de niro is the youngest actor to win two competitive oscars, and the only one to win for a reprising a previous winner, and win in against two other actors from the same film. Thats a nice feather in his hat.

[mhaze210]

WOW, i totally forgot Jeff Bridges was nominated the same year.

De Niro deserved that award more, but I'm very happy that Jeff FINALLY won an Oscar last year for Crazy Heart.

Both of them are excellent actors (and Anthony Hopkins and the rest).

[Marty01Mcfly]

Where was de niro?

[Andrew93Mike]

accepting the award for de niro here is a fat monkey

[kingcaesar5]

@Andrew93Mike that was actually de niro, he completely embodied the essence of coppola. That's the mark of a great actor, he fooled you all.

[kingcaesar5]

@Andrew93Mike that was actually de niro, he completely embodied the essence of coppola. That's the mark of a great actor.

[aborins]

@Andrew93Mike Hilarious!

[93johnk]

why wasnt he there?

[TiCkToCkMaRiO1473]

''He's going to enrich the films that are made for years to come''

He was spot on.

[JRR951]

@TiCkToCkMaRiO1473 All the way up until about 1990 something at least....

[ogdoad4]

why wasnt De Niro there to receive his oscar?

[dorko225]

@ogdoad4

Maybe because he thought he wasn't going to win and he decided to not bother coming

[kingcaesar5]

@ogdoad4 he was filming novecento in italy

[kvrmurthy]

Thanks!

[mayaaisabel]

hands down all time favorite movie

[VEGAxProductions]

I believe Al Pacino deserve to win that year too!

[stephie4066]

@VEGAxProductions well yeah!!!

[SupernaturalLover67]

wow those O'nmeals raslly fucked up that "presentation"

1:40 he told her to open it, and then he wa slike "SHIT" and pushed the envelope down cause he forgot to say the nominees.

[mrbungle311]

@SupernaturalLover67 About as bad as your spelling/typing skills.

[Alxe73191]

@SupernaturalLover67 and than gives her a nudge to remind her to say the nominees

[UFOSPACE1999]

IT truly surprised everyone there..Fred Astaire SHOULD OF WON..NOT because of his performance..SOMETIMES those Academy Members vote for YOUR long career...DON AMECHE ring a bell? AND everyone thought the Godfather Crowd would cancel out everyones votes...I guess NOT!!!

[ku909603]

robert de niro deserved this

[killik2099]

best supporting actor? he was fine, but it was a pretty bland part in that film. He had no emtonial scenes or any chance to really act. Definitely not an oscar winning performance, just a good performance in a brilliantly put together film.

[zim83]

@killik2099 Sometimes, that's what acting is all about: looking believable and convicing playing an "ordinary" person. I'm sick of seeing Oscars handed over to people playing mentally challenged roles, nervous breakdowns, Holocaust victims or suffering mothers. Comedy or day-to-day people are much tougher to play.

[stephie4066]

@killik2099 wow. just wow. lol

[TheRealUnderherfeet]

You can't lose playing Vito Corleone. One of the greatest film characters in the history of motion pictures.

[imsusceptible]

bob where are you? y dint you come to recieve the award

[hawkeyepierce12]

@imsusceptible

Bob didn't think he had a chance to beat both Lee Strasberg and Fred Astire, so he didn't bother showing up. 

[JerseySurvivor]

@hawkeyepierce12

Bob was in Europe shooting 1900 and was unable to get to LA.

[laksa72]

@hawkeyepierce12 Lee Strasberg was Bob's mentor, surprisngly, Bob was not even nominated for golden Globes that year.

[JerseySurvivor]

I remember this well. Fred was the odds on favorite (everyone figure the G2 three would cancel each other out like the thee in G1.

Love that 'nudge' Ryan gives Tatum when he realizes they almost forgot to read the nominees. So long ago...wonder what happened with the two just prior. Hmm.

Hope they post Hearts & Minds and Sinatra's rebuke next.

[EretzLaAm]

Even then, the Dude Abided.

... abade?

[razbigranicu]

wow Lee Strasberg was there. De Niro deserved mostly, but they should give it to Strasberg as an honorary oscar. De Niro was going to win sooner or later...

[zim83]

I've been so waiting to see this, thank you.
