I really don't like him, and i think he is an overrated actor. The speech lacked of sincerity, all i get from this is conceitedness.

[JuanMacready]

@thelupoistheman1 I always hated his horrid gravel voice.

[ShowBusiness90]

Micheal Douglas is one of the best!

[MrRobertJameson]

This was a boring speech.

[antikoerper256]

lol @ Jack Nicolsons whistling

[kenen112]

Does anyone know the actress at 1:15?

[sidrahsiddiqui]

A great acceptance speech directly from his heart.

[7workinggirl]

Mikey D is such a lovely person and a true legend! :-) xxxxx

[Ronnie9P]

@JuanMacready As for me and my taste, I still watch MD films, I think he is brilliant in his class. If you hate this mans voice... there are thousands of other actors ... watch them . I don't like some actors... I don't go to there performances. Same with singers... To me, Michale Jackson always sounded like he had his balls in a vice. Michael Bolton sounds like he has laryngitis., so I switch the station.

Try it ... you'll see it works every time.

@RichardElden M. Douglas acted for a living. As I expect U work or Ur father works!. At some age we all retire, as my parents have done! Still loved & useful with wisdom, life experience , grandchildren, charities, etc.

 Douglas when diagnosed was working on a film, regardless of a Oscar performance, but who knows? Hes done it before. Many actors have winning performances well into there 80's .

When Ur dad is mad & asks U, “Do I look stupid?” Do Ur self a favor...

Don’t answer !

@RichardElden If aliens are looking for intelligent life?! WHY THE HECK WOULD U Be SCARED? Ur comments, as most on here show pure ignorance..

Do I understand this... B/C most of Americans were smokers at one time. Our houspitals deserved to be filled with people dieing of lung cancer? Only 2 things are infinite, the universe & human stupidity, I’m not sure about the former ! Stop being so stupid.. it’s my turn.!
