its a shame people can't be as wonderfully articulate and well spoken in acceptance speeches nowadays. just contrast derek jacobi with the swearing morons we have today.

This is the most well polished, humble, lovely acceptance speech. He's soooo cute!

I love Derek jacobi..... I remember watching this when I was young (probably too young but my mum thought it was so great) the actors in it were amazing, him, George Baker (who has just died) Brian blessed etc... amazing......

That, and Robert Donat's Academy Award for "Goodbye Mr. Chips."

One of the most well-deserved awards ever given for any acting performance.

His acceptance speech is of a truly noble and civilised quality; with a modest, natural eloquence that is magnificent.

@ravaldo11 Christoph Walz gave a beautiful acceptance speech for his role in Inglourious Basterds. Worth watching!

All my idols are so old, like 40-50 years older than me.. In a way that really sucks, but in another that's what makes them my idols, isn't it. Bittersweet.

When I was 12/13 my idol were Cary Grant & Sean Connery, so, don't worry, it's a common desease ^^

I can't believe he didn't win an Emmy for Claudius. I Claudius nonetheless has a big following here in America. Don't want you Brits to think us yanks are a bunch of rubes.
