Larisa Madolimov what a weird twisted world you live in. To obsess on something so obviously wrong. If she's a transsexual her twins must be the second coming because that's truly a miracle. Sad.
Ellen Burstyn put her soul in Requiem For a Dream, I can't imagine how hard and challenging this role might be for her...I love Julia Roberts but I would love to see Ellen win the award.
@@secrets.295 yes she is but if someone has given someone has given arguably the best female performance of all time its better if that person walks away with award even if she has a win
I thought Julia deserved it until I saw Requiem for A Dream. Good Lord Ellen Burstyn put on such a great performance it's one of the many reasons I can only watch that movie once.
Addiction has completely destroyed my family...literally ripped our souls out...so I've never been able to watch it...I feel I'm probably making a mistake though...thoughts?
You expect Ellen to be brilliant she's always amazing and she already has an Oscar Julia on the other hand also blew me away and I'm not one of her fans
Ellen Burstyn deserved it (let's be honest), but Julia's Oscar speech is still one of my favourites. She's so infectiously giddy and genuinely happy about it, without being weepy and melodramatic. "I love it up here!" I can imagine.
ugh… At first I actually thought Julia Roberts was going to be humble for once… But nope. “I love it up here!… I love the world!” and yes, I’m bitter because it adds insult to injury that one of the best actresses of all time in one of the best performances of all time… Ellen Burstyn “Requiem for a dream… “Loses out to this Hollywood show pony with the big smile and poofy hair. 🙄…. This is kind of the exact moment that real acting was pushed aside for politics and greed… And it hasn’t changed to this day.
In this Oscars ceremony, which ran for 3 hours and 23 minutes, a bonus was thrown in - a free television set for the shortest acceptance speech. Hence Julia's comment at 1:26 - "I *have* a television, so I'm going to spend some time here..."
Oh, I thought that all of her friends and family were watching television. Hence, they were watching her speech and she wanted to tell them stories by enjoying the moments.
This is probably the cutest most genuine acceptance speech ever in Academy Award history. Such a great personality, smile and positive spirit. I will always root for Julia Roberts.
Total agree with you. Maybe she is not my favourite actress but this show us definitely that she is unique. and how she can be authentic and totally open to speak from her soul without any fear
Such a great speech. It was an amazing movie and this award was well deserved for her. Just wish she acknowledged Erin Brockovich herself in the speech...
She did say after her speech that she completely forgot to acknowledge the real Erin Brockovich, and felt terrible! But I can imagine it’s very hard to remember some even very important people under the stress of being on that stage! And I agree - she deserved this Oscar - she was phenomenal in that film.......I’m watching it as I type this!! 😂😂
I cried with her last words, not because I am sentimental but because above all they are true, genuine, spontaneous. This is not Julia speaking here, ladies and gentlemen, it is actually her soul.
she said that she somehow deserved the price. "if I earned it, then it's that I was not too bad" ( body language says brilliant). what actually brilliant actor/actress means so much of narcissistic sense in the way he/she receives such prestigious award? NONE of the ones who I saw on the stage being honored that way.😊
I can imagine how people got tired and bored after so many hours of ceremony, and then beautiful Julia comes out and shares her confused emotions and entertains them
Burstyn was excellent! It is too bad the studio didn't push for her to be in Supporting...would likely have won! Laura Linney was terrific in You Can Count on Me!
@@paullemon5154 The studio actually wanted to put her in the supporting category but she said "absolutely no". Besides, her role was not really a supporting one imo...
@@saudinc6267 Wow! I had no idea that was the case...thanks for sharing that info! Burstyn already had the Best Actress win...nothing wrong with a Supporting Oscar (ask Streep, Lange, etc.).
Ellen should have actually been in supporting category for this performance, she could’ve won there… Julia won all the precursors and was unstoppable that awards season…
Ellen Burstyn had won an Oscar for her performance in Alice doesn't live here anymore, but this is so unfair. Her performance in Requiem for a dream had me crying for 20 minutes.
ELLEN BURSTYN DESERVES IT !!! , HER PERFORMANCE IN REQUIEM WAS BRUTAL AND ANTONISHING, , THE ACADEMY GAVE THAT OSCAR TO ROBERTS IN RECOGNITION OF HER GOOD DECADE ,THE 90`
I just watched requiem for a dream and I was so convinced that Ellen would have won the Oscar just with the performance. And I looked it up and found out that Julia won... I loved erin brokovich and I love Julia but omg Ellen deserved it....😭😭😭
I think it was that Roberts' movie was more advertised, than the others. Isn't the first time this situation happens and unfortunately, keeps happening. It's even worse when the nomination is snub!!!
At least we can find a bit of solace in the fact that Ellen Burstyn has a Best Actress Oscar. This snub feels more tolerable than ones like Gloria Swanson or Judy Garland, because at least Ellen has an Oscar.
@@laniejean6618That doesn't justify Julia's win. Requiem for a dream should be awarded in different categories. Jennifer connelly was not even nominated
@@Alpha-bt9bh her movie was shite, Julia outshined her in Erin Brockovich that's why she won not only the Oscar but the BAFTA, SAG, critics choice and the golden globe i mean... critics and the voters> you and your opinion
Burstyn gave one of the most brilliantly and convincingly hysteric performances ever on film. And she probably deserved the win. I also loved Laura Linney's performance in You Can Count On Me. However, I can't begrudge Robert's win. It's a fantastic "movie star" performance built on charm, strength and screen presence, the type of performance we so rarely see nowadays. Blanchett is the only winner I would definitely put ahead of Roberts as far as winners in this category post 2000. And her performance would probably make my top ten Best Actress winners. So, while Ellen for me was more worthy, Roberts was hardly unworthy. There's some movies/performances that win that are truly unworthy. This wasn't one of them. Put aside whatever bias you have against Roberts and her work in other movies. Her performance in EB is great stuff and still holds up.
@@amr_12_Definitely not, Jennifer Lawrence nailed the layered character of a person with BPD… She is as worthy of the Oscar as Julia is for Erin Brockovich…
Cleveland Society Spamming every comment with the same BS won't help you get out of your misery. Julia is still loved by a lot many, while you are drowning in your own hatred..
Ellen Burstyn perfectly executed a masterclass acting in Requiem for a dream, she dissected a character so perfectly that took acting to a whole new level. Even some Julia’s fans were a bit disappointed when the winner was announced.
Julia Roberts was very good in Erin Brockovich but Ellen Burstyn gave one of the best female performances of the 2000s alongside Marion Cotillard, Charlize Theron and Cate Blanchett IMO. They could have at least put Burstyn into the Supporting Category and reward her if they really wanted to give Roberts an Oscar.
Definitely...it's like how they turned that one movie into a comedy just because two dramas were good...oh yea the martian....so stupid...she deserved it so much and in her age not to reward her is BS...plenty of ppl had great performaces that got ignored as well...so they could have waited...i thought roberts was better in 2011 movie with meryl Streep
@@theworldisimmense now that I didnt know. Wow, I would never have known. I just thought she's just really nervous and still in awe of the award. I mean, she was definitely amongst some heavy hitters in that category.
Well it seems a lot of people are shitting her for winning this award, so i looke it up and this is what I found. "For her portrayal, Julia Roberts became the first actress to win an Academy Award, BAFTA, Critics' Choice Movie Award, Golden Globe Award, National Board of Review, and Screen Actors Guild Award for a single performance." This is not an isolated win, she snatched every win she can. I think this says something.
As much as I adore Julia Roberts and her role, Ellen Burstyn should have won the Oscar. Her role in Requiem for a Dream haunted me for the rest of my life. It is one of those performances that stick to your mind and you can never forget it.
I just think this is beautiful. All of you who say "so and so should have won" or "she's acting" should go find somewhere else to put your 2 cents in. Because this video is about a true and genuine soul being ecstatic and thankful and sharing that with everyone. Beautiful, beautiful soul. Beautiful acceptance.
Christian 4_Realzz Well you need to get over yourself. It's been 16 years and like it or not, many people including the members of the Academy and other panel of jury for the various awards shows that year thought she deserved it. You have a lot of nerve to say that we should all respect your opinion, like it is the only one that matters, when you can't even respect ours. Julia won. Period. So have a seat.
Many awesome performances were ignored that year - Gillian Anderson ("The House of Mirth"), Nastassja Kinski ("The Magic of Marciano"), Kim Basinger ("I Dreamed of Africa"), Sandra Bullock ("28 Days")
I agree that Ellen Burstyn was absolutely robbed. Her performance stuck with me for a long time after watching the film, and I've only been able to watch it twice. Such a hard but rewarding film. Ellen is a true actress, very skilled.
Nobody was robbed… In fact, Ellen robbed someone else’s nomination, because her role was actually a supporting one and even the studio wanted to push it in the supporting category…
The best genuine reaction. Every oscar acceptance should just be spontaneous like this, it a show for entertainment --- just let it be. It so much joyous and lively. Scripted speech are boring
LOOOOVE her speech and how she says: I have a television so I'm going to spend some time here to tell you some things jajajajajajaja. She is amazing and maybe she wasn't the best that year but she certeanly deserve the award itself
Burstyn was amazing in Requiem, but I have a feeling that people prefer these type of performances - like an addict role - because they think it's harder to play these roles. And of course it's not easy to deliver such performance, but just imagine how difficult it can be to play a single mother of three, who has a big mouth, but other than that, there's nothing special, in the meaning of addiction, disability and such. Just a real, normal person. And that is a tough thing to do, to play that character so wonderfully that audiences will rememeber it, will actually notice it. And when you play a drug addict, that's already there, the audience already knows the most important thing about the character, so the actor actually has a head start IMO.
Exactly! In Burstyn's case 90 % of her acting is the role, 9 % is the director and like 1 % is her. Granted, that 1 % is flawless, but I would still give this Oscar to Julia Roberts any day over Ellen Burstyn, because Julia had to carry this movie on her own!
Ellen Burstyn deserves this Oscar until this day Her performance was unforgettable I'm still in shock about that finale. But Julia's movie I can't even remember what was even about, so forgettable.
It’s the other way around for me because Julia’s performance was unforgettable and brilliant… Ellen deserved to be nominated in the supporting actress category for this role, it was a category fraud…
I love Julia Roberts she’s amazing but that year the Oscar was for Ellen Burstyn she was totally robbed,I mean how can she not win?Her performance is brilliant just from another level.
I hate reading comments under oscar speeches. It's always this person didn't deserve it, that person did. No matter how many people say it, it's not going to change the reality, so can we stop with this and just appreciate the speech.
GracefulDanny I've seen both movies. Both actors were incredibly strong but... Ellen got robbed here, Julia Roberts was good but Ellen's performance of the tragic Sara Goldfarb was thought prevoking, emotionally draining and every second of that performance felt real and constantly in your face.
You can call Ellen the most deserved winner, but Julia still had her name called out and got to take the Oscar home which kind of makes her the real winner. 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
Everyone...quit whining and watch the video. All 5 deserved it, that is why they were nominated in the first place. Julia Roberts is one of the finest and most sincere actress of the last 25 years. It was nice to see her recognized.
@@normadesmond6017 Sad but true. Anyway anyone with some brain, won't do any effort to think that Oscar, of course and as shown, doesn't mean that the film is automatically a masterpiece. At all.
@@1StIwY1And guess what????? I do have some brain…..And i do realize that some awards are given because the actor/actrice has made hunderds of millions with their movies for the studios. But it doesn't make it right, now does it? Anyone with some brain must just say and feel: what fake, this whole thing….
of course she should have. But she never made hunderds of millions for the studios. Julia Roberts did. And this was a Thank you for that. Nothing to do with great accomplishment.

Ellen Burstyn's performance in Requiem For A Dream is memorable, even after the credits roll. It's brilliant.
Sadly there can only be one winner. No silver or bronze medals. As we have seen and will continue to see, great performances that don't get the prize.
Ellen forgot to wear her red dress that she wore to Jared Leto's graduation.
No.
Ellen should have won. And there actually can be more than 1 winner. See the year Barbra Streisand tied with Katharine Hepburn.
So is Julia’s performance in Erin Brockovich… She was phenomenal and deserved the win…
Ellen Burstyn put her soul in Requiem For a Dream, I can't imagine how hard and challenging this role might be for her...I love Julia Roberts but I would love to see Ellen win the award.

Bjork -Dancer in The Dark, Michelle Yeoh - Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
I agree that Ellen Burstyn was absolutely robbed. Her performance stuck with me for a long time after watching the film, and I've only been able to watch it twice. Such a hard but rewarding film. Ellen is a true actress, very skilled.
Nobody was robbed… In fact, Ellen robbed someone else’s nomination, because her role was actually a supporting one and even the studio wanted to push it in the supporting category…
Ellen got robbed
Thought Julia deserved it ... until I saw Ellen Burstyn in Requiem For A Dream. Geez. What a performance.
She had one of the classiest hairstyles & dress in Oscar history
The greatest robbery in the history of Oscars! Ellen Burstyn deserved to win. Her performance in Requiem for a Dream was out of this world!!!!!
The best genuine reaction. Every oscar acceptance should just be spontaneous like this, it a show for entertainment --- just let it be. It so much joyous and lively. Scripted speech are boring
Crazy she didn't acknowledge Erin Brockovich
There is just something about her and personality that just draws people and such a genuine smile and infectious laugh. Love her!
LOOOOVE her speech and how she says: I have a television so I'm going to spend some time here to tell you some things jajajajajajaja. She is amazing and maybe she wasn't the best that year but she certeanly deserve the award itself
Made me tear up listening to her speak because it was straight from her soul! She is and always will be phenomenal!👏🏼❤️😍😍😍
Amazing actress! This movie inspires me to think positive and beat all odds.
Watch all the movies mentioned here. Burstyn and Roberts are both amazing. But Roberts as Erin is brilliant.
oh my god i just watched requiem for a dream i gave 5 stars already ELLEN BURSTYN SHOULD WONNNN
Burstyn was amazing in Requiem, but I have a feeling that people prefer these type of performances - like an addict role - because they think it's harder to play these roles. And of course it's not easy to deliver such performance, but just imagine how difficult it can be to play a single mother of three, who has a big mouth, but other than that, there's nothing special, in the meaning of addiction, disability and such. Just a real, normal person. And that is a tough thing to do, to play that character so wonderfully that audiences will rememeber it, will actually notice it. And when you play a drug addict, that's already there, the audience already knows the most important thing about the character, so the actor actually has a head start IMO.
Exactly! In Burstyn's case 90 % of her acting is the role, 9 % is the director and like 1 % is her. Granted, that 1 % is flawless, but I would still give this Oscar to Julia Roberts any day over Ellen Burstyn, because Julia had to carry this movie on her own!
Well said......before I read your post I was ALL FOR BURSTYN. ROBBED. You're right.
@Ethan Dennis You said it well. Don't try to find excuse for Julia's undeserving. win. Ellen Bursytn deserved it in anyway.
DEFINITELY THAT OSCAR WAS DESERVED FOR ELLEN BURSTYN!!!! >:(
When Erin Brockovich warns the stick man...
Ellen Burstyn deserves this Oscar until this day
Her performance was unforgettable I'm still in shock about that finale.
But Julia's movie I can't even remember what was even about, so forgettable.
It’s the other way around for me because Julia’s performance was unforgettable and brilliant… Ellen deserved to be nominated in the supporting actress category for this role, it was a category fraud…
@@gauravw6947😂😂😂
Honestly her performance in August: Osage County was the capstone of her career. All her roles lead to that one.
Her smiles lifted everybody up and brighten up the room and my life!!!
Love you so so much J.Roberts ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🤍❤️
She has the perfect personality that an actor should have... she is so amazing and deserves it so much!!
I love Julia Roberts she’s amazing but that year the Oscar was for Ellen Burstyn she was totally robbed,I mean how can she not win?Her performance is brilliant just from another level.
I hate reading comments under oscar speeches. It's always this person didn't deserve it, that person did. No matter how many people say it, it's not going to change the reality, so can we stop with this and just appreciate the speech.
Watched Requiem For A Dream last night and I'm actually offended that Julia got this over Ellen.
EXACTLY !!!
Have you seen Erin Brokovich? Julia was amazing in it.
+Let's Talk About It
Have YOU seen requiem for a dream?
GracefulDanny I've seen both movies. Both actors were incredibly strong but... Ellen got robbed here, Julia Roberts was good but Ellen's performance of the tragic Sara Goldfarb was thought prevoking, emotionally draining and every second of that performance felt real and constantly in your face.
GracefulDanny I found that movie so disgusting I walked out of the theater so I can't appreciate the performance.
This is one of the funniest Oscar speeches ever! "Stick man, I see you"
Yes! Btw, what is an orchestra conductor's 'stick' officially called? :)
@@annajacob7981 That "Stick Man" was the one and only Bill Conti!
@@smurfthumper Thank you! And I just learned that the official name for an orchestra conductor's stick is wand :)
She has the same smile & giddy like Pretty Woman! Her laugh just evolved!! I'm glad she got her award for Erin Brockovich bc omg she was mind blowing!
Requiem for a Dream is such a powerful movie. Under nominated by the Academy. Some great roles done in the same year.
Best smile on EARTH!!! She is the BEST :D
Smart and beautiful. An unstoppable combination.
Favorite Oscar speech ever
ellen burstyn is the real winner , the best performance !!!!!!
You can call Ellen the most deserved winner, but Julia still had her name called out and got to take the Oscar home which kind of makes her the real winner. 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
@@davidsinnott1894it's called publicity
Who is here after reading about this moment in Mathew Perry’s book 🥹 he was watching it from a rehab place
✋
It should have been him congratulating her when she won, and not “that guy on the side” there that night
But “life had other plans” as they say
the fact that Ellen Burstyn didn't win this oscar is an insult to the humanity
I agree...
Deivyson Almeida It's not about that. The thing is that Ellen's performance was the best ever. not just that year...
Your comment is SLIGHTLY subjective...
MadonnaImperia Soo???
duke shopos ehhh
Look at how adorable devito was and still is
Julia laughed histerically really made the day
Wow! I never knew she won against Ellen Burstyn in Requiem for a Dream. That is a great movie and Ellen is one of the best actresses ever.
4:22 - 4:25!!! This woman is so amazing!!!
Everyone...quit whining and watch the video. All 5 deserved it, that is why they were nominated in the first place. Julia Roberts is one of the finest and most sincere actress of the last 25 years. It was nice to see her recognized.
One of the best oscars speech i've ever watched and heard😍love her so much
Ellen Burstyn should have won that award
Por alguna razón "Requiem of a dream" si es un clásico de culto y Erin Brokovich es solo una película más de Julia Roberts...
That was one hell of a year for best actress... all fantastic performances. Loved that Julia won but Ellen Burstyn was simply terrific.
Ellen burstyn should've won. She was magnificent.
she didn't make as much money for the studios as Julia Roberts did. They don't call it show"business" for nothing….
@@normadesmond6017 Sad but true. Anyway anyone with some brain, won't do any effort to think that Oscar, of course and as shown, doesn't mean that the film is automatically a masterpiece. At all.
@@1StIwY1And guess what????? I do have some brain…..And i do realize that some awards are given because the actor/actrice has made hunderds of millions with their movies for the studios. But it doesn't make it right, now does it? Anyone with some brain must just say and feel: what fake, this whole thing….
of course she should have. But she never made hunderds of millions for the studios. Julia Roberts did. And this was a Thank you for that. Nothing to do with great accomplishment.
she’s beautiful
Rare moments when you don't see Meryl Streep in the nominations
Yh, The Goat is resting time😂😂
