Judi Dench winning Best Supporting Actress | 71st Oscars (1999)

[@IanLeoTV]

Rest in peace Robin:(

[@kellyanne9147]

Rip may u have found the peace in death that you could not find in life rob.

[@Nick-nk4ee]

He's a loser

[@psychobunny32]

maybe only 8 minutes, but when I think of this movie, her scenes are the ones I remember most. She WAS Queen Elizabeth in those 8 minutes. Also, RIP Robin Williams. You are missed.....

[@laurenaston7940]

She certainly plays British aristocracy so well, doesn't she?

[@HAL-vm3wn]

Lauren Aston maybe because she plays it SO OFTEN!

[@ericandy88]

It is never about how long you are onscreen, but about what you do during it.

[@viggolover1]

less than 8 minutes

[@sarimaaret6845]

Dame Judi Dench deserves several Oscars! And the audience SHOULD STAND UP for this great, great, one of the greatest actresses!

[@superpiyush1]

She does deserves several oscars!!

[@DavidVarkonyi]

Dame Judi Dench DID deserve the Oscar for her role, her scenes, her presence was so powerful! She is excellent in every role she does! Among others she was also nominated for Notes On A Scandal which she should have also won for, sadly she didn't . She was beyond amazing in that one!

[@lawrencebennett2007]

a powerful Elizabeth the first Shakespeare In Love

[@mipatriaadorada]

Judi Dench: "...and my heart goes out to the other four who didnt win..." Kathy Bates: "I already have one."

[@JunebugPresents]

I think Kathy Bates was the best of the 5...

[@WalterFrith]

@@JunebugPresents Definitely. Dench won because she lost the leading actress Oscar the year before for Mrs. Brown when many had her as a lock for that award.

[@bobbyb7979]

Judi Dench had a small role but she played it so well

[@Darkasknightfall]

Kathy Bates: “hold my Oscar.”

[@overcomer4226]

Didnt win that year. I didn't really think she needed to say what is so obvious to the rest of us.

[@chiramos310]

I hope Judi Dench lives forever. I love her! RIP Robin Williams.

[@LeonardoSousalordlrs69]

" There is nothing like a Dame, the Oscar goes to DAME Judi Dench"

[@tomillakockingbird1754]

And how many other comedians could have looked at that name and come up with that line? When you look at Ms. Dench's face, she knew she'd won; she was at the time the only Dame in the bunch.

[@TheClassicMagda]

That's the best thing ever. That's how you present the winner to a dame or sir

[@marciasuminski8455]

Still remember it today.

[@WeAreTheInsurgents]

Kathy Bates still terrifies me since Misery

[@JavierRodriguez17565]

Narciscynic the scene where she hit Caan with the sledgehammer was terrifying

[@aseemagarwal9493]

The hobbling scene..

[@selesnyaconclave1850]

It's the mark of a phenomenal character and performance when the actor's name is synonymous with one specific role. I sometimes forget the character's name and just think 'Kathy Bates'.

[@haendel8a]

If she still terrifies you it only proves she did a heck of a job

[@dylanpsinakis7930]

Especially that last scene.... In Misery...

[@tp17061990]

Judi Dench, Vanessa Redgrave and Meryl Streep are the three ultimate goddesses of acting.

[@nilu83f]

+Anthony Pakoulidis And Cate Blkanchett

[@moisemensah8233]

Agree wholeheartedly. But add to your list Jessica Lange, Jessica Tandy, Charlotte Rampling, Meryl Streep, Glenn Close, Kathy Bates and I would add Frances McDormand.

[@SophieFreemanVEVO]

don't forget Emma Thompson!

[@moisemensah8233]

Sophie Freeman Right! Loved In The Name Of The Father. I would add also Holly Hunter thanks to her magnificent turn in The Piano and Sissy Spacek who was riveting in both Carrie and Coal Miner's Daughter.

[@jumpinshade]

Diana Rigg,Helen Mirren,Helena Bonham Carter

[@trumancapote9097]

Who would have ever dreamed she would outlive her presenter. Such a tragedy. Miss you ROBIN. RIP.

[@jarredkennedy6131]

So did Helen Mirren.

[@Nick-nk4ee]

Oh did u know him. Thats so sweet

[@smacbot]

I wish Cate Blanchett has won the best actress oscar that year, so both the winning actresses would have won for playing Elizabeth the 1st

[@tamobebia]

Cate deserved more, i agree

[@liteflightify]

Too bad she won for a borderline one-note role that was pretty much a cameo, because Notes On A Scandal and Mrs Brown would have actually been highly deserving. But actors winning for the wrong roles is pretty typical with the Oscars.

[@moisemensah8233]

Iris as well

[@siddharthnaagar7028]

in the words of Katherine Hepburn herself that's very true

[@sagrai2564]

At least she's got an oscar

[@Robert-zx2ir]

It’s all subjective

[@abhishektyagil3912]

John Johnson d

[@haroldmachroli3368]

She should have won it for Mrs. Brown. But she did make a phenomenal Queen Elizabeth, no matter how short a time she appeared.

[@haroldmachroli3368]

Anyone could have played the roles of the actresses you mentioned and have done just a good a job. So what's your point.

[@eamonndeane587]

She was certainly more deserving of her Oscar than Gweneth Paltrow (at least in my opinion).

[@MDkid1]

To win an Oscar...you need to own a role. And for 8 mins....she OWNED it!

[@JohnWesleyDowney]

"If you need someone to slouch in a doorway, you can count on me." She's awesome!

[@j.b.9260]

Oh, viva Da Nang!

[@soniaball7506]

The role required her to be powerful, commanding, singular, and residual... the director knew that he had catapulted her into Oscar status when she played the part so well. The role of a lifetime.

[@lampad4549]

hardly the role of a lifetime when you have less than 10 mins of screentime.

[@philashton1469]

She played a Queen SEVERAL times!

[@dogfishrulez]

I came here for indomitable Dame Judi Dench but found myself snorting with laughter from Robin Williams. RIP Robin, you are truly missed! Thanks for the continued laughs.

[@DutchHPfan1992]

Such a sweet woman..and a wonderful actress!

[@Etombayambo]

Robin Williams Forever.

[@RobertaRock88]

R.I.P Robin Williams :(

[@akash9818]

Dench deserves more than one oscar. She's given stellar performances in Iris, Mrs Henderson Presents, Notes on a Scandal and Mrs Brown and could have won for any one of them but she did not deserve to win for Shakespeare in Love.

[@sweeney60]

I think it should have gone to Lynne Redgrave

[@gainal9080]

Not exactly for Iris,Henderson and Notes because there were some even better performances in those years,but yes,she should've easily won for Mrs Brown over Helen Hunt's MEDIOCRE performance in As Good as it Gets.

[@MrAkashvj96]

gain al Yes very true. She certainly wasn't the best in 2001 and 2005 and rightfully lost but still they are winning performances. As for Notes on a Scandal, Helen Mirren certainly was very Very deserving but I believe that Dench's haunting lead performance was superior and should have won. But that's not what disappoints me. What disappoints me is that that Helen Mirren won every single award that year whereas Judi won absolutely nothing despite giving such a remarkable performance. But anyways she sure as well should have won for Mrs Brown and in many ways this was a make up Oscar for snubbing her the previous year.

[@gainal9080]

Well I personally LOVED Helen's performance in The Queen.I think that performance is one of the best winner in the history of Oscar,but sure,I'd be fine if Judi won for Notes.Cate and her were also MARVELOUS in the film.

[@GracefulDanny]

I actually thought Dame Judi's performance in Shakespeare was really powerful and she deserved this Oscar. She stole every scene she was in, her screen presence is off the charts. She probably deserved it for Notes On A Scandal too, she was phenomenal in that. I also would've like to have seen her be nominated for her bitch-slapping of Keira Knightly in Pride And Prejudice haha.

[@RenanCMaia]

Judi should have won for "Mrs. Brown" in 1998 and Lynn Redgrave in 1999 for "Gods and Monsters"...

[@gatewayski1]

+Renan C. Maia Yes!!!!

[@maziebunny2]

+Renan C. Maia I feel the same way. and I'm sure Redgrave took a stab at that in an episode of Rude Awakening when her drunken character Trudy grumbled "F--- the Oscars."

[@kateholden2533]

Renan C. Maia Agreed. Lynn Redgrave was fantastic in Gods and Monsters. I also would have voted for Ian McKellen for best actor for Gods and Monsters.

[@damionsunderpants498]

She was excellent with Cate Blanchett in "Notes on a Scandal"

[@rohansrider]

Brilliant performance Barbara .

[@vuxdinh]

What a classy speech she gave. Dame Judi Dench is one of the finest actresses in the business. Continue to be nominated well into her 80s. Should've won for one of her Best Actress nominations.

[@AtlasUniverse]

Judy deserved that. She showed an outstanding acting in those few minutes. I think Sharon Stone deserved to be in this nomination too. She was great in "The Mighty"

[@Rob_Shoot]

Judi Dench=class act.

[@rubeustyou]

You can actually see the other nominees smiling so genuinely at her, with such admiration and respect. LOVE it. Thank you, Judi, for being so brilliantly amazing.

[@pam0626]

Oh, Robin Williams. So dearly missed. The world needs you now.

[@laurenaston7940]

I clicked on this because I love Judi Dench. I was not prepared for the feels that came on when Robin Williams walked out. Still one of the saddest Hollywood losses for me.

[@daviesjonathan139]

That's nice of you,Aston how are you doing today?

[@clemmyw.1967]

Sameeee, i thought i had seen all of his award presenting and accepting videos, and so when i clicked play this one, it was solely because of Dame Judi Dench, and i certainly did not expect even for one tiny bit to see Robin Williams on the stage to announce the winner.

[@matiaspereira9382]

[@fernandoaugusto5435]

[@Izaan2810]

True. Till this day, one of the dumbest decisions ever made.

[@dldee912]

The duration of the performance isn't relevant (especially for a supporting role).......the important thing is the quality....B.Straight was immense in her 5 minutes in "Network"...and she was the best in that category (and, really, I liked Piper Laurie in "Carrie").

[@jonathanwang9613]

Laurence Olivier's acceptance speech for receiving a life time achievement Oscar, is the best Oscar speech I ever heard. Maybe the best 'thank you' speech ever.

I watched it after you recommended it… Although it was smooth and nice, it was so bloody long! Thats half the reason why I love Judy's. It's not too fast, and you don't get bored, plus she's thankful, acknowledges the other ladies, says why she's happy, and leaves. (dressed impeccably I might add)

I love this clip. Robin’s wit and delivery were spot on, as always and Dame Judi gave an elegant and humble speech. The last few seconds might be my favourite part, watching Robin walking offstage with her. He looked so protective and encouraging, with his arm around her shoulder, guiding her. He just wanted to help her in that heady, crazy moment. What a sweetheart!
