The interpreter audibly tearing up while translating Troy's words about his father is absolutely priceless and beautiful.

[@wiwikasri]

Agree

[@benfulfer3260]

Totally, it’s one thing to flawlessly interpret everything but to add emotion to it is really great

[@Blood0cean]

Pretty sure all of that was done pre win cus he was talking about popey eating spinach before doing the signs for it...

[@alvarorojas5515]

that crap was staged and also it was already arranged for him to win, he already knew, just hear the translation. There is no kindness on that. Such a bullshit award on a bullshit ceremony.

[@folarinosibodu]

Anytime I watch that part, I tear up.

[@superseries3913]

She signs to Troy "congratulations, I Love you", before announce it... she tried to said it to Troy first even though she doesn't know ASL, so she made an effort and learned a bit just in case, because she wanted that Troy knew he was the winner before the hearing people and this is INCREDIBLY thoughtful, because he deserved it to know first and no after the rest cheered because someone else translated it or by context only

[@SuperJNG18]

You can tell the other nominees catch on quickly though - JK Simmons, being a class act, immediately pointed to him and signed his congratulations as well.

[@AmitChandraVerma]

Loved that Yuh Jung Youn address the winner first in sign language then announced it verbally. She is such a class.

[@rhysioeren3203]

She was definitely very happy for him, very beautiful.

[@amandanies3174]

I love it when Yuh-Jung Youn signed "Congratulations, I love you", and when she did that, everyone started freaking out when they realized it was Troy's win before his name was announced. I also appreciate that they used deaf applause for him. It was incredibly respectful for all of them to do that. And Troy's speech was so beautiful. A huge congratulations to Troy and to the CODA cast.

[@carlosmartins3009]

Troy winning + Yuh-Jung Youn presenting = Oscar gold. Congratulations for Troy and CODA’s cast.

[@mirellestolarek914]

She was so so sweet!

[@sherlock1619]

Yuh-Jung Youn was so adorable and considerate when she offered to hold the Oscar for Troy when he had to use his hands to express himself.

[@tarun2298]

thats kind of required lmao

[@nikagogibedashvili6476]

That unsure laugh at 2:44 when audience was not seeing the reason why Yuh-Jung Youn was taking away Troy's Oscar shows just how much we need to learn in order to incorporate deaf community completely in the society. Once he starting his sign speech, we understood why he could not be holding something in his hands, but we were confused together for the second or two. We will learn, CODA was a big step in the right direction.

[@diskmort]

she's a class, i grew tremendous respect for her

[@alfiemarie]

i also got confused when she took the trophy but as soon as he started his sign speech, i almost felt embarassed to not get it the first time. and i also love that she stayed right beside him during his speech so that the trophy would still be in frame right beside him.

[@Quaker-tc8ue]

Erm, all due respect, but not only the Deaf community. As someone who has failing sight, more representation needs to happen for all “challenges.” But, as someone with a disability, i also know that I’m “blessed with the burden” of education.

[@williammoore2832]

deaf is not disability.@@Quaker-tc8ue

[@randomami8176]

Really? People got confused? It was obvious to me that someone needed to hold the trophy so he could talk with his hands. I would’ve done the same thing. Good for her.

[@stevennieves3327]

Did anyone else hear Marlee Matlin say “oh my god” when Yuh-Jung started signing? That was so sweet.

[@itsybitsy999]

Great pick-up!

[@danmcgrain9050]

Does anyone know what JK Simmons signed briefly when they announced Troy's name?

Maybe Yuh-Jung Youn could be the most longest caught-up in camera presenter in Oscar history. Love her adorable hearwarming reaction to Troy.

[@depressedpebbles]

Troy & Yuh-Jung interacting is just so adorable!! I love how she held the statue for him while he signed.

[@jeffersonborges9932]

My favorite moment from this year’s Academy Awards. A well deserved Oscar for Troy Kotsur. And loved Youn Yuh Jung presenting, she’s so spontaneous and funny. Also loved the fact that she stayed on stage by his side, made me remember the 1965 Oscars when Audrey Hepburn presented Rex Harrison Best Actor and the two stayed hugged on stage. However, I have one thing to say on this category: I’ll never understand how on earth Mike Faist was not nominated for his performance in Spielberg’s West Side Story. His acting as Riff was a REVELATION, hope he gets recognized by the Academy soon

[@jingren]

Interesting how the tech crew didn't descend the mic to the floor even though Troy didn't practically need it. Such a poetic image - while the deaf may not be able to hear, they still have a voice!

[@melodyferguson2563]

I have deaf friends. Some voice, some don't I know a gentleman who refuses to voice.

[@loretohidalgo3533]

Because they literally DO have a voice. They just dont use it at least most of em

[@codyhiginbotham6616]

He deserved an Oscar for that amazing speech

[@MrArifhadi]

Look at Yuh Jung Youn carefully taking care of Troy. Beauty

[@Lion_Warrior2187]

Just a quick reminder that Troy Kotsur went from being a Tusken Raider from Star Wars to becoming the first deaf male actor to win an Oscar for an acting category

[@supermariofan03]

Marlee Matlin was first.

[@bolshevi3187]

What a powerful moment from Yuh-Jung Youn. Rejecting the awkward laughs and pauses, a moment of delicate kindness and foresight.

[@depressedpebbles]

Fun fact: We know that Troy is the second deaf actor to win an Oscar. The first? His CODA costar Marlee Matlin in the 80s.

[@davisonronald3877]

This moment is historic and wonderful! Troy Kotsur deserved the academy awards for Best supporting actor for CODA.

[@werthmelissa]

Loved that she used sign language first before announcing his name! Didn't see this coming!

[@edmendesbrazil]

She's almost too cute to be true! Such a humble and kind lady!

[@muhammadandraaditya4802]

When the applause gradually turned into a sign language congratulating his win, it's just so moving....

[@RobertPagano226]

One of the most beautiful presentation of an Oscar in history. It was so pretty to watch. The way she watched his every sign is momentous while holding Troy's Oscar.

[@sadia2395]

Also watched the video where she said she wanted him to win and so practiced signing 'congrats' and 'I love you' days prior to the event. Thoughtful gesture imo 😊

[@trinaq]

Congratulations, Troy, very well earned. Both of Ruby's parents are Oscar Winners now!

[@lucadelbosque]

Amazing how an incredible acting performance doesn’t require much or any dialogue

[@douglassobreira5453]

This is a lesson that Charlie Chaplin already taught us. 😄👏👏👏

[@SoulKnightKing]

He won saying one word!!!!

[@AthletaK]

He had tons of dialogue.. ASL was the vehicle.

[@JustSomeCanadianGuy]

Never even thought of that! I think of him as having dialog through the whole movie but he only had one line! 😄😄

[@laurabelacqua9064]

i agree, but he did have dialog, tons of it.

[@PokhrajRoy.]

Yuh-Jung Youn is a Comedy Icon. She needs to star opposite Rita Moreno.

[@depressedpebbles]

I liked CODA as a film. But Troy is the best part of this film! The love of a father is so strong even though he doesn't talk in the film. The scenes where they're signing so fast during an argument, give the same effect as if the words were actually spoken. As a hearing person who is learning ASL, I think Emilia did an awesome job learning in just under a year. I don't have any deaf family members but I definitely felt the struggle of people asking you what dirty words are in ASL 😂😂😂 Congrats, Troy! (I love that everyone was doing the deaf version of clapping/celebration!)

[@kylephilip8614]

This is probably the most heartwarming and heartfelt clip from the Oscars.

[@JustSomeCanadianGuy]

He was unbelievable in CODA!!! Most deserving Best Supporting Actor win since JK Simmons in Whiplash.

[@Denis-89]

Best speech of the night! What a legend!

[@franklesher4459]

I was hoping that Kodi Smit Mcphee was going to be the winner in this category, but after watching the performance of Troy Kotsur in "CODA", i just knew that he made one fantastic performance. He is also the second deaf actor in winning this award. The previous one was for Marleen Matlin in "Children of a lesser god"

[@ann_stucchi]

You cannot imagine how much I cried during this live show.

[@Angela_Esmeralda]

I just adored this humble, funny and amazing woman! ❤️ She's a Lady.

[@babserella2778]

So many in the audience doing the sign for applause makes me very happy.

[@jwelch5742]

Troy Kotsur has great acting in CODA. Troy Kotsur became the first male deaf actor to win an Oscar and only second deaf actor ever after his co-star Marlee Matlin, who won Best Actress for Children of a Lesser God.

[@yads5678]

OMG the interpreter sobbing walking behind Troy, ack!!!

[@ericburns9132]

Very well deserved Troy Kotsur was brilliant in CODA he truly deserved that Oscar.

[@ccmp18]

Yun-Jung Youn is sooooo adorable.... Love her.

[@ericburns9132]

Troy's Wife Deanne Bray, was the first deaf actor I saw on TV, she played Sue Thomas on Sue Thomas F.B.Eye, and Troy guest starred on the show and now he's an Oscar winner.

[@Maatjuhhh]

It's ironic that Yuh-Jung Youn did a bit about her complaining how to pronounce her name and she very sweetly tried to pronounce his name or even sign it. Kinda poetic.

[@bomoregie]

A very historic win indeed. His performance carried the film!!!

[@kamronbekrahmatullayev]

Oh man, he definitely deserves it. I'm sure he is the best signer after his father.

[@arontamas5639]

I rooted for him winning the Oscar since the day I first watched Coda. He was the heart of that movie. He brought the funniest and most moving moments!

Oh my god. I just saw this movie yesterday and just saw all the you tube videos related to it, it just unexplainable the emotions, the beauty, the feelings, not just the movie itself but its actors. I haven’t been touched so emotionally by a film since Schindler list.

First saw Troy in an episode of Criminal Minds. DID NOT know who he was. He played a deaf inmate who broke out of jail and was on the run. (yeah, I know, he played a deaf inmate, duh) BUT I did not know who Troy was. Never looked him up. I did not realize the actor was deaf. I just knew it was a great episode that made me cry at the end. Love this man.

[@greencello599]

This win for Troy is a huge victory for the deaf community as a whole. Sign language, particularly American Sign Language, is still a relatively young language. It wasn't officially recognized as a language until the 50's I believe. For many years, deaf and hard-of-hearing people were forced to orally speak. Much of the spoken language depends on what we hear to pronounce words correctly. Proper syntaxes and all that. Marlee Matlin became the first deaf performer to win an Oscar many years earlier. It has taken nearly 40 years for another deaf performer to win. Here's to seeing more of the deaf community getting more recognition alongside other communities with physical limitations moving forward with those without such limitations. The next big thing involving a deaf performer playing a deaf character is the MARVEL series ECHO coming soon to Disney+. Alaqua Cox, who is actually deaf, plays Maya Lopez, a young woman who can perfectly mimic another person's fighting ability and style by watching them. The character made her live-action debut in the series Hawkeye. She is also the first deaf woman superhero in the comics. Much like Daredevil was a huge boon for the blind community, Echo represents the deaf community in showing that the only limits are what we put on ourselves.

With Jesse and Kodi's nominations for The Power of the Dog, this marked the 5th year in a row where two actors from the same movie were both nominated in one of the supporting acting categories. There was Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri (Woody Harrelson and the winner Sam Rockwell), The Favourite (Emma Stone and Rachel Weisz), The Irishman (Al Pacino and Joe Pesci) and Judas and the Black Messiah (the winner Daniel Kaluuya and LaKeith Stanfield).
