See how he went back to shake Jeff Bridges' hand. That is genuine respect.

It truly was. Jeff Bridges has been doing it at a very high level for decades. That double back to shake his hand was proof of that.

I'd go back and hug Bridges

[@andrewbrown2477]

I like how he turned back to shake Jeff Bridges hand, class.

[@dillimeinbilli]

He's such wonderful gentleman, I think his 15 minutes of performance were a looming presence throughout the film, you missed him on screen. That's the power of a great actor. He really gave the character weight and pathos.

[@vanaphill2454]

Yes that was really cool! Loved that! Really gracious of him!

[@Mia7189]

Andrew Brown Agreed. SO happy for his win.

[@ronhoward9292]

I was just about to comment something similar to this as soon as I saw it.

[@Gasb92]

We witnessed Jeff passing the torch! What a beautiful moment.

[@1997residente]

Mahershala is only 15 minutes in the movie...and yet,his facial expressions and dialogue are the most remarkable aspect of Moonlight. He is a strong weight in the main character personality and the plot.

[@appleslover]

1997residente there is an actress won the award for only 7 minutes it played the queen Elizabeth

[@1997residente]

Leonardodp Really? Wow the movie is 3 hours long,and it is so great that makes me think it's pretty short.

[@jayy.5663]

Reminds me of when Anthony Hopkins won for his phenomenal LEADING role in The Silence of the Lambs despite only being in the movie for 16/17 minutes. Goes to show that how long you were in a film doesn't equal how effective you were.

Is it just me or is Best Supporting Actor always the most competitive category?

[@puremadness]

this comment is bad and you should feel bad

[@Luna-ds5zy]

depends on the year, some years they don´t have competion

[@emigrant1510]

To be honest, there has really been big competition for the category in recent years. 2010: Christian Bale (The Fighter), Geoffrey Rush (The King's Speech), Andrew Garfield (The Social Network, who didn't even get nomimanted). 2012: Christoph Waltz (Django Unchained), Phillip Seymour Hoffman (The Master), Alan Arkin (Argo), Tommy Lee Jones (Lincoln), Robert De Niro (Silver Linings Playbook), Leonardo DiCaprio (Django Unchained, who also didn't get nominated) 2013: Jared Leto (Dallas Buyers Club), Michael Fassbender (12 Years A Slave), Bradley Cooper (American Hustle), Barkhad Abdi (Captain Phillips), Jonah Hill (The Wolf Of Wall Street, who, not kidding, could have been a great winner) 2014: JK Simmons (Whiplash, even though this was a no-contest), Edward Norton (Birdman), Mark Ruffalo (Foxcatcher) 2015: Mark Rylance (Bridge Of Spies), Christian Bale (The Big Short), Sylvester Stallone (Creed), Tom Hardy (The Revenant), Mark Ruffalo (Spotlight), Steve Carrell (The Big Short, who should have gotten at least a goddamn cookie for not getting nominated despite an awesome performance)

[@mitchellmurray5892]

This was an especially tough year since pretty much everyone who was going to be nominated was. I was never big on Aaron Taylor Johnson in "Nocturnal Animals", nor Hugh Grant in "Florence Foster Jenkins", so i'm at least glad Shannon and Hedges made it in instead of them.

[@evanhanson6924]

2016: Mahershala Ali (Moonlight), Jeff Bridges (Hell or High Water), Michael Shannon (Nocturnal Animals). I would have really loved if Ben Foster (Hell or High Water) and Liam Neeson (Silence) got nominated cause those were some of the best performances of last year.

[@tdoyle541]

The scene where Chiron asks Juan whether or not he sells drugs is one of the best acting performances ever. The pain and sorrow on his face when he tells him yes is so heartbreaking and a true testamant to how great of an actor Mahershala is. This guy is truly an up and coming talent and I can't wait to see him in True Detective next year.

[@diesel2x]

Ali's expression, body movements and tones are what make him a good actor NOT his dialogues

[@ralphcorneliuscastro]

"My grandma would want me to button up" 😂😂 What a good way to start his acceptance speech! Congratulations and well deserved, Mahershala Ali! I wasn't aware that you also starred in The Hunger Games film series as Commander Boggs!

[@justinvo2712]

anyone who didn't think he deserved this award. im sorry but go watch that scene where little finds out that Juan was the person that sold drugs to his mom. if you dont feel the immense pain emoted by Ali in that scene then u really dont understand how great his acting is. great acting is not always about monologue/dialogue.

[@delisham4899]

[@shantcharekian8260]

Such a small yet momentous role.

[@calvinlaw7790]

Ali came into the film, stole the show, broke hearts and made such a haunting impact. Bridges and Patel were great but neither was 'supporting'; they were co-leads within their respective films. Hedges was very strong, Shannon was okay, but in my opinion Ali was the clear choice here.

[@IDiggPattyMayonnaise]

I dont understand how Dev was "supporting." Lion was completely about him. He and the younger version had the same amount of screentime. They definitely thought theyd get the easier win if they put him in that category.

@@IDiggPattyMayonnaise There's no need to disrespect Dev, he was outstanding in Lion, do you know how hard it is to mimic an Australian accent? Yet Dev's Aussie accent was impeccable. Also Lion had 3 main characters in Kidman, Sunny and Dev, so obviously they weren't gonna overlook the other 2 characters and give Dev the lead role nomination. Finally Lion got 6 Oscar nominations so they definitely weren't going for the easy win. At least know your shit before criticising someone......

I feel the Oscar for Judi was a 'oh shit we've never given Judi an Oscar let's nominate her for one'. The Oscars have done this with so many people; Martin Scorsese, Julianne Moore, Leonardo Dicaprio, Morgan Freeman, Whoopi Goldberg.

[@caseyaulbach7693]

What I love about M. Ali is his journey into acting. He didn't grow up wanting to be an actor, attending prestigious child acting studios, etc. He graduated with a degree in communications, and was passionate about basketball. It was when he saw a friend perform in a play when he was finally "bitten by the acting bug" so to speak. He didn't start acting until he was 27 and never appeared in a film until he was 30, but his obvious passion & drive for the craft drastically outweighed his lack of experience. Now he is one of America's most refined and talented screen actors. It just goes to show that heart, attitude, passion, & determination will always be more important than privilege & experience.

His role in Moonlight is one of the most dominant performances I’ve seen on screen. 15 minutes on screen and he created a presence that could be felt throughout the whole film. All together Moonlight was just a beautiful movie, especially in the editing that went into that masterpiece.

[@KJ-oz6hb]

He's so sweet, notice that he turned back and shaked Jeff Bridges hand, such a gent. Glad he won.

[@FinalCutGaming]

What makes his role so spectacular is that his presence is felt in every second of the film following his character's departure. The character of Chiron shapes what it means to be a man around his vision of Juan, and to see him grow as a character following this guide is simply mesmerizing.

The messenger was neither adham nor albino white, as our master Anas said, that is, the degree of the color of his skin was equal across his face, and was not very white outside the limits of the degrees of praise white The Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace, is white with reddish, but very white skin tone, unlike Arabs with dark skin: On the authority of Anas, may God be pleased with him: The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, was the flower of color that was neither white nor albino.

[@Jamal3.87]

Loved that he turned around to shake Jeff's hand. FYI: Watch the Hollywood Reporter's Roundtable with them in it. It's awesome!

[@jeremystubbs1980]

If he wins for Green Book, he'll be the 7th actor to have won twice in the supporting actor category.

[@Ivan-xy9vg]

I really hope he wins again. That movie is amazing and his performance in it is great.

[@darrylaz3570]

Well I got news for you :)

[@leatherjackets92]

You called it

[@Tommyhedland]

Jeremy Stubbs In this movie he should not win, he should have won Jeff Bridges, In Green book if fully deserved

[@moisemensah8233]

Sir...you're AMAZING !

[@RickyRisha410]

Maharshi Ali and Christoph Waltz. Two gems in Hollywood won 2 oscars for supporting actors

[@shreyanshojha8820]

What a soft spoken and well mannered human being.

This guy was only on screen for less than a third of the movie but gave such a stellar performance. Kudos to him

wow! i feel so sorry for you. imagine seeing an amazing black actor and being obsessed over some white European chick. sucks to be basic lol

[@BluesGetOrigin]

@@maxpain8569 Wait Magneto hit the jackpot? Im jealous lol

[@jul828]

i’m proud of dev patel for being nominated! too see him grow from Skins wow

[@siiiiiuu7]

You can see the pureness of his heart in the way that he carries himself. Beautiful person.

[@franklesher4459]

I dont know about you, but i was having a feeling that Mahershala Ali was going to win this category. For me the winner was between Dev Patel or Lucas Hedges, but i was marveled that he won this award, specially that he already became a father before this ceremony. So, i congratulate him.

[@ahmadalmaiman8600]

He was honestly the best part of the movie. It's worth it. I overall give the film an A-, he really elevated the positive aspects of the film by devoting himself as the father figure this kid truly needed in his life. As much as ppl wanted to see more of him in the film, it was sufficient to give you the subtlety of what Chiron goes through and what he gets exposed to. In time of despair, the shelter that was offered could not have been better available.

[@delisham4899]

^ Ahmad Almaiman, I'm glad ur one of the people who understood the film and his character.

[@marinaj5902]

This movie changed my life and his performance was stunning. ❤️

[@usethis4511]

I finally got round to watching moonlight…it’s literally 2022 and even though I’m late I have to say he absolutely deserved it he played his role beautifully

[@adagiobreeze8493]

Such a well deserved award I wish Nocturnal Animals had gotten more recognition with more nominees though, I can tell it's such an underrated classic

[@hadeel2530]

Such huge screen presence. I couldn't forget him in Moonlight even though he was only in it for a short while. Well deserved Oscar.

[@xavisan6751]

Humble, great actor and gives such peace when you listen to him.

[@conlasganas]

A beast as an actor, and a true class gentleman as an individual. Hands down

[@chanelfitzgerald]

He is a brilliant, brilliant actor. Watched a clip on KZbin where he spoke to some college graduates. What an inspiration Mahershala Ali is. Loved him in House of Cards too.

[@fadhilamad]

I'm in dilemma of choosing Dev or Mahershala, thank god one of them won 😇

[@ericburns5125]

And it looks like he is going to win another Oscar this year for Green Book

[@ericburns5125]

And he got it

[@Chimichanngaz]

And he did🔥

[@diego-qs9wr]

His character was so powerful, so true, so full of life...... he deserve the award.

[@nemospodcast6766]

What a gem!! The Oscars are about time that’s why they have to hurry up with your speeches especially with the music plays. Jeff Bridges pats him on the back. You realize that was his pier in the same category and just going back to shake his hand. It was so beautiful what a gentleman I will work with Mr. Ali one day.

[@jamesbrown9553]

Mr. Ali...Graduated From New York University.... School Of Drama... 🌕 "Moonlight" Was A Great Movie.

[@beyondtheend9144]

Michael Shannon is such an underrated actor!!

[@thewrightproductions7400]

1:25 this just shows good sportsmanship, Mahershala Ali is a legend

[@nb6918]

Those were some of the manliest tears I have seen.

[@apullcan]

what kinda' frustrates me is that they cut out the clips that they showed durring the real ceremony. i personally liked that a lot... but complaints aside, Mahershala earned this SO hard.

[@neelabhraroy4238]

aberon there are a few videos where those clips have been added

[@MozzieMutant]

aberon that because copyright would come for them

[@Mrx2848]

Moses Ssebandeke perhaps, but I suspect movie studios wouldn't want to get on the wrong side of AMPAS by messing with their KZbin channel.

[@kazabushy]

That was a gracious and humble speech. Classy man! The fact that he turned back to shake Jeff's hand shows what a gentleman he is.

[@isabellaandrews6695]

And he's gonna win again this year for "Green Book!" So well deserved!

[@broannoying8765]

I've been a fan of him ever since True Detective... he is a talent of the generations !

[@philsibayan9815]

What a sweet moment for him to shake Jeff Bridges's hand it's one of my favorite moments of the Oscars

[@a.s.2112]

Mahershala Ali's talent in Moonlight is something I still think about all these years later. My heart broke in the theatre. I kept waiting for his character to appear in a flashback, anything just to have another glimpse of him. The way Ali embodied Juan made him seem like a real person, whose loss I mourned along with Chiron. This win was well-deserved.

[@reesiuspeesiuspuffs3006]

Well deserved! He's one hell of an actor!

[@yakunohayashi9653]

It’s great to see Dev nominated in the Oscar after being part of “Avatar”

[@christopherbarber5283]

Classiest dude in Hollywood these days

[@Evanplays15]

Great movie. True story. I love Ali’s character. Great chemistry between Doc and Tony. Best friends for life.

[@terriemart89]

This gives me chills…. Cause what he did in this film. Very small but impactful role

[@JubnaJubna]

There’s something so soothing about his voice

[@LittleB2007]

Mahershala has one of the deepest, sexiest and kindest voices in Hollywood today. And that really added the extra "it" to his wonderful performance in Moonlight. He stole the show and totally deserved this award.

[@dani__crocs]

He was obviously the best one in the category. Like, no competition. So glad he won

[@dani__crocs]

And Jeff Bridges was the co-lead in Hell or High Water, as was Viola in Fences. I hate when these awards do this

[@faisall6364]

Daniel Victor you clearly didn't watch nocturnal animals

[@Kahayuman]

Standing ovation!!! And crowd cheering him on! I love yhe depth of his acting here and in the green book

[@Dancerama6]

Just saw this movie. He deserved this. Also saw Nocturnal Animals. Michael Shannon was well deserved nominee.

[@thewordisours8105]

man is long overdue for an oscar

[@ganeshiyer319]

Surely he has to win it again this year for Green Book. Brilliant work!

[@osaserewizzyboo13]

He's a talent like no other😍

What a gentleman.. Just turning back to shake the hand of a legend Jeff bridges was so respectable of him.. U did a remarkable job in Moonlight & deserved this Oscar 👍

It was dificult to decide which one was better, all those performances were simply incredible but I'm happy that Mahershala won

[@katierowen3166]

This is a beautiful speech for a well deserved win but my favorite part is him shaking Jeff Bridges’ hand. Love that moment so much!!

The amount of respect I’ve gained for him after watching Moonlight is outrageous. He’s amazing, he deserved this.
