@@cheearraesquerra This was around the time when she was dating Billy Bob Thornton and stories were going the rounds that they were cutting each other up with knives during sex. So maybe that's why Benicio is keeping a safe distance. Smart man.

Joaquin Pheonix has the best attitude towards the Oscars, he just doesn't give a shit. I love it! He's extremely gracious to whoever wins and claps like a madman, but you can tell he knows the Oscars are beneath him. One of the greatest actors of our generation.

[@999titu]

came here after watching sicario.Damn the intese presence someone can make with subtle calm yet eyes that tell u someone u can't trust with less than 100 words in the entire movie.Respect.

[@supertruthfortynine]

Without question one of the best actors working today. He has the ability to play stone cold killer and somehow finds comedic touches when required. He's a class act!

[@PastPerspectives3]

Yeah, super imposing figure, he was made to act

[@Docriversburner]

He is brad pitt

[@GiantSandles]

Joaquin Phoenix should've won if only for delivering the line "It vexes me. I am terribly vexed" with a straight face

[@Hashpotato]

+GiantSandles haha his performance in Gladiator was outstanding tho

[@GiantSandles]

Hashpotato I do genuinely think he should've won

[@alanisxxs1742]

+GiantSandles Mmm..... Too overplayed, too theatrical for film. Benicio's performance flowed and felt natural.

[@dCa991]

He better get another one for Sicario

[@caseyb2245]

[@djmotise]

Not really. He did nothing exceptional in S. The role wasn't varied enough. He won't even be nominated. The are way too many other great performances to nominate.

+dcanaeme1234 Agreed! He blew my mind away in Sicario.

one of my favorites

[@manoliskasioumis1115]

At 1:01 I adore Catherine Zeta Jones's reaction at his winning and the fact that she stood up and hold his hand to congratulate him. What a WOMAN

[@mellonlemon3819]

Yes it was a great gesture. She was also in the movie together with her husband Michael Douglas and I don’t know why he didn’t stand up here. Anyways, Ben is a phenomenal actor!

[@luishumbertovega3900]

​​@@mellonlemon3819Michael is 25 years older than her, he can't get up as easily, but anyway he did shake Benicio's hand. 😊 Fun fact: neither of the three of them shared scenes with each other in the movie, their respective scenes were supposed to occur at three different places.

[@timothyw98]

It still sends chills down my back how powerful his words were in traffic, he hardly said anything, but with some powerful lines. His conversation in the pool with the DEA was brilliant, short but detailing into his character and sadness.

[@robertoreyeslozada4916]

His reaction after his pal was kill.

[@Stayer1997]

I love Joaquin's reaction when another actor won. He's happy for him. Anyway. I think Joaquin was the best. In Oscar (2013) Joaquin's reaction is like "I'm sure I won't win". Eh.... he's so underrated

[@Nuckelavee20]

There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. Some kind of high powered mutant never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die

[@TheBadLiutenant]

For years I thought WIllem Dafoe was the most deserving that year with his iconic, terrifying yet hilarious performance as a vampire pretending to be an actor pretending to be a vampire. Then a few years later I have rewatched Traffic and Del Toro is absolutely magnetic on screen. Such depth of feeling conveyed in the subtlest of glances and in his body language. The fascinating aura of a movie star yet completely disappearing into a character. There's no big acting going on. It is all inside, hidden, but all the more present. I am glad the Academy rewarded subtlety over thunderousness, however mezmerizing Dafoe was as well. It is the less obvious choice.

[@thekingofmovies193]

That was a very nice observation 👌. I couldn't have said it any better, Myself.

[@yr5334]

Absolutely agreed, his performance made gladiator.

[@raindrops21_9]

Ah, no. As great as Joaquin can be, he made his character in Gladiator cartoonish, and OTT. He's since earned his stripes, but not deserving of the Oscar for this role. Besides, Benicio was sublime.

[@mattthecreator5172]

he also shoulda won for 21 Grams...

What did he not do? I think he was terrific in that movie as I think he is in all of his movies. He is a phenomenal actor. I think he also deserved an Oscar for his performance in Che & definitely one for his performance in 21 Grams & The Things We Lost in the Fire. He was also fantastic as "Lado" in the movie Savages.
