once you hear sam elliott speak - you'll always know his voice. it's iconic. james earl jones is like that. that deep resonant voice.

[@TheBadLiutenant]

Look at Glenn Close with the badass leather pants and classy white top! An actor with a thousand faces and a very insightful person. I really hope she will win an Oscar if not this year then very soon down the line.

[@msrainydaymonday]

well, it wasn't this year, so I hope it is very soon, rather than later... and that Oscar was hers..... :(

[@monikajcm5563]

Two incredible people listening to each other with such respect, not merely waiting for the other to finish so they may speak again. It threw me when I realised how rarely this happens in this day and age. A wonderful pairing, thank you.

[@milonanni8806]

Glenn Close still with zero Oscars in 2018 is absurd! This MUST be the time!

[@kevlow9494]

Lol it's quite weird for sure, it's an honor just to be nominated I guess but I think she'll win this year and crazier things have happened. If Lady Gaga wins the Globe AND SAG then Glenn could lose again..

[@kuku16s]

Well well, as great as she is... Let's not rob any other actor of the Oscar just because Glenn didn't get it yet. May the best person win.

[@beulahboi]

If GaGa is even nominated it'll be a joke category and then wrose she'll probably win. I say this not as a hater, just someone who thinks she's a much better singer than she is an actor.

[@ageeblue752]

yes is absurd........but as they say....is a businesssss... i think is envy.....

[@wel.3098]

lol Sam Elliot never even been nominated until this year

[@michaelkilian3175]

I fall asleep to Sam Elliot's majestic voice

[@johnniemaeross2386]

Sam Elliott fits my idea of the perfect man. I envy Katherine Ross.

[@yarsivad000.5]

Tom Selleck's mustache could fight Elliot's mustache and win,but they would have to be on horseback for the battle. I bet it has happened. But their eyebrows would end in a tie...?

[@OneFlewOverTheCuckoo1999]

ronn mattson Sam Elliott is WAY better than Tom Selleck.

[@greens294]

Omg the pairings this year are out of this world! Love this

[@lamia6403]

When I saw a star is born all I could talk about was his performance And I’m from a younger generation so I’m not familiar with most of his work but Sam Elliot in this film is phenomenal. I wished he was in every scene while watching the film he just captured me and I am grateful for him.

[@FockUimOUT]

I love Sam Elliot, when I find out hes in something I immediately just know that ok this is gonna be good. There are very few performers that give consistent work and in my eyes hes one of them

[@chellepatino1675]

You should go see his others.

[@junegiovanni6475]

This man Sam Elliott is the most underated actor, he has a 50 year career. He is extraordinary. The first time I've seen him was on The Biopic movie "MASK" in 1981, based on a teenage boy Rocky Dennis who suffers from Craniodiaphyseal Dysplasia/lionitis, who is portrayed by Eric Stoltz and his mother played by Cher, and Sam Elliott played Chers Boyfriend. It was a great movie and so tragic and he was amazing in that classic. But to realize that Glenn Close, one of the most extroardinary actresses of a generation or any generation has no Oscars... that's Blasphamy! She should have like 5 now. This women is considered one of the greatest ever. When you talk about Meryl Streep, Glenn is always right up there with her. She is like a throwback to the great golden Era Actresses of the 1930's/1940's/ 1950's...she has a 45 year career and No Oscars thats outragous. Glenn Close deserve the Oscar this year...long over due for her unmatched talent.

[@jiminhart]

This is one of my faves of these interviews. Voices of experience should be heard more.

[@JoeyMcSmokey]

From The Big Chill, The World According to Garp, Dangerous Liaisons, Angels & Demons and all her other iconic roles. i am fascinated by Ms. Close what mesmerizing performances she has given us. And I remember seeing The Lifeguard when I was just 10 years old, i fell deep in love with Mr. Elliott in 1980 and have never looked back. Love this interview!

[@loveisintheairwalker1765]

Glenn Close looks good. She’s 71. One of the best actresses of her time to still be on top. 👌🏿

[@turnedaround4954]

I'm not being dramatic when I say, if the Academy don't give Glenn the long,long, long overdue Oscar this year, I'll cease to watch it again as it will cease to be a valid prize anymore. I watched the Favourite, ASIB, and The wife. All were amazing, but Glenn rose above and this needs to be her year.

[@krouac]

Two of the greatest talents on the planet just hanging out. Amazing.

Here is a pairing of two icons of the cinema. Class,skills ,talent and....humility. Pay attention younger Me,me me generation. Two true actors of the craft. But totally different people!

[@ageeblue752]

i think is envy from many other actresses, ms close is not just a good actress, shes a great actress, great singer, worked with the best, done great stuff and she looks like a nice person. every time i see her it reminds me of FATAL ATTRACTION, her line ¨i am not going to be ignored..¨

[@marloncervantes2512]

Talk about a COLOSSAL oversight that Glenn isn’t as awarded as she deserves. She is a BEAST in EVERY role she embodies. Sam’s voice is hypnotic!

[@senitima]

If these two don’t leave the Oscars holding statutes there’s something wrong in the world!

[@nickparadies350]

senitima Glenn is in a really tough category this year. I think Sam should win no question but Best Actress could go any which way.

[@senitima]

Nick Paradies that is true. Best Actress could go either way but it would be a sin (even if it was fair) if she didn’t win.

[@Licaro1984]

[@johnnolan5579]

I think Glenn will win, but Sam will lose to Richard E. Grant in "Can You Ever Forgive Me?" which is easily the best supporting performance of the year.

Eventhough I really loved Gaga's performance in Star is born and she really truly would deserve the Oscar but........ Glenn Close could not lose, I didn't see her performance yet in that movie but like DiCaprio, Julianne Moore and Gary Oldman..... she must finally win! Gaga will win the Oscar for the song, that's for sure! I hope Sam Elliott will be the next Best supporting actor winner!

[@beulahboi]

In my opinion GaGa deserves all the awards for music, but NONE for acting.

It’s just like leonardo DiCaprio. Did he deserve an oscar? Yeah. For ‘the revenant’? Nope. Lady Gaga is far and away the best performance in her category but glenn will get it because she’s ‘overdue’. 🙄
