[@karip6237]

I love how he pauses, "my beloved wife..."... Gosh he loved her....

[@yyyeneferc7661]

every time he mentioned

[@AtCw593]

kari p According to a 2016 article, he hasn't been dating. And he had recently given up drinking. He drank a lot in mourning, and refused to date. A loyal widower family man. A good man, too. RIP Natasha Richardson.

[@ashleymorales4295]

kari p i loved her in the parent trap. They made a great couple

[@FacheChanteDeux]

kari p It broke my heart when he said that.

[@samarthdubey7]

he was in so shock since her wife's death that he refused to work in any movie till next one year, even he left Steven Spielberg's Lincoln because he was not mentally prepared to do roles like Abraham Lincoln at that time.

[@Kingofkings112323]

I love how everyone was so quiet when he was telling the story

[@hazelm0uth]

That is how it should be.

[@ddaannssttaarr]

When Liam Neeson speaks, you listen

[@godzillakiller1]

Its cause he has a very particular set of skills that make him a nightmare for people who don't listen to him

[@dukethotness]

He's like an uncle we all want

[@chungminglap]

He is that kind of gentlemen to be respected

[@EpicBeard815]

That moment he takes takes before saying "beloved wife" just breaks my heart.

[@ladyGZSeChu]

Me too :(

[@227elnegro]

What happened to his wife?

[@ParadigmZwei]

EpicBeard815 People lose their loved ones all the time, and famous people are no different. However, for some reason I've taken exception when it comes to Liam Neeson. For some reason it gives me more feels, D:

[@romaking6713]

@@ParadigmZwei He is genuine.

[@tpstrat14]

Liam Neeson has class. Most people come onto a talk show to make people laugh/ forge an "interesting" personality, Liam comes on and he's a deadpan, real human being. And it was a real story about his life. It wasn't a "joke" that he signed for the guy that he looks like. It was a real, classy gesture of kindness.

[@invisi6l339]

hmm maybe he just has a dead pan face, his facial muscles arent genetically wired to be rich and expressive?

[@seanfeeney8170]

When Liam talks you listen.

[@BlobbyPlayer93]

+sean feeney the complete silence was amazing

[@dannydev9829]

or he will find you ..

[@suzannereilman4516]

...EVERY. GD. Word....:)!

[@lethaweapo1210]

he does have a very particular set of skills that he has acquired over a very long career.

[@rounaksingh1017]

He has such a fine voice.

[@uzvisheni]

Who knew that Liam could be this funny XD " Did you see, Star Wars "!!

[@RyanSyn]

Fuckin' love Liam hahaha XD

[@TraaaaaasshBooooaaaatttt]

he acted in quit a bit of comedies in the UK tho its only really his hollywood career is predominantly action he is a pretty funny guy

[@RyanSyn]

thedriftkingdogman It's awesome xD

[@gsanks]

He is such a cool, classy guy. To actually say he felt "that small" when in the company of those who liberated Europe shows how he accounts for himself.

[@Lylasasa]

"My beloved wife"..still breaks my heart

[@frwdodoodid203]

its lucky they didn't say I loved you in Schindler's List then...

[@Cassandra6]

omg lol

[@amysimpson5839]

Both Ralph Fiennes and Liam Neeson were in Schindler's List so that could have been said

[@DirtyJerseyProductions]

Amy Simpson That's what he meant..... if they had said that then he would've signed it Liam Neeson instead of Ralph Feinnes, which is who they thought he was...

[@fayHoran]

either you are a troll or a fucking idiot....

[@Thejampacker]

I have a friend who fell asleep during Schindler's List and woke up half way through, she couldn't figure out how Oscar Schindler could change from friendly caring German to a sadistic Nazi Officer!

[@knifeprty69]

"DID YOU SEE STAR WARS?"

[@kryptomanik]

Liam Neeson AKA the one thing I really liked about Episode I

[@bdbeaudette]

James Bella I thought he was amazing in it, too bad he didn't like being in it lol

[@Nexus42]

James Bella His fight with Darth Maul was probably the best thing out of the whole movie.

[@jeweetzelf734]

Shadownet Spy yeah that 5 min fight at the end really saved the movie #sarcasm

[@KamiEntertainment]

Julian needssomereggae I dont get why he choosed that movie, he has been already a big name before star wars, and made way better stuff than in that. But yea, ''The only thing good in Episode 1''

[@elremanenteunafeinteligente]

I love how he talks about his late wife... You can feel the love and respect he has for her...

[@jeff58436]

When the two old ladies get home, one of them looks at the signature and says "Hmph, I thought he was Liam Neeson, but it seems we spotted Rafe Fiennes".

[@murzsaroland3742]

XD Jesus, my belly hurts XD

[@synhet84]

Jeff Hooker i'm confused is it Ray, Rafe or Ralph his name?

[@benhan23]

Syn het It's spelled "Ralph Fiennes" but pronounced "Rafe Fines".

[@berkshirehuntstables]

+Jeff Hooker Excuse me!? it is spelt, Raeiay.

[@keanehgz]

He's so time-conscious it's like he's still in character for his TAKEN movies haha

[@Charmolution]

I hear he's always making lists, just like in that one movie he did...

[@xxlCortez]

Now we need Ralph forging Liam's autograph. "Justice is balance. You forged my autograph and took credit for my work. Consider us even."

[@178fluffy]

batman begins

[@ARMERZ]

"I BANISH YOU LIAM NEESON, FOR FORGING MY SIGNATURE, BOY!!!" (Corolianus reanactment)

[@TheSuperk25]

Mark Wahlberg and Matt Damon do the same to each other.

[@antoniomarino9444]

Ralph Fiennes never learned to mind his sourroundings

[@shan4680]

[@toongum]

+BattMarn i thought it was just my computer too lolol

[@yergaderga]

You mean RAY Fiennes&#039. RAY?

[@macbeerhunter]

+yergaderga no its ralph, pronounced "Rayph"

[@yergaderga]

+Ken Daly I know. But in the title it's spelled Ray.

[@magicscreenman]

If Liam Neeson regularly gets confused for Ray Fiennes, I can only imagine how often Stanley Tucci and Mark Strong must get confused for one another.

[@amalhodaif]

i think Andy Garcia and mark strong look similar

[@robinpeepy]

His name is Ralph Fiennes, by the way, it's just pronounced in an old fashioned way.

[@PsychotiX1022]

Or Arnold Vosloo and Billy Zane

[@danzingqueen1]

Liam Neeson is most definitely a top-notch actor and a classy, gentle, humble and strong human being. I can hear this man speak forever (just like Morgan Freeman). He called his wife "beloved" for goodness' sakes! Who does that nowadays!? I greatly admire him for more than his acting abilities. He must be a fantastic husband and father as well. :)

[@shogrran]

LOL. Of all the movies he could have said at "Didn't you see ___________".... he chose star wars. Hahaha.

[@gilzineto]

+shogrran Most known franchise in the world dude, what did you expect?

[@shogrran]

gilzineto yea it's the most known. But the starwars he was in was the most hated of the 6.

[@avptremor]

+shogrran Attack of the clones though :/

[@mathieupoulin2577]

+shogrran I still liked it. And Qui-Gon was awesome.

[@espantalho93]

+shogrran That's the joke, that's why he used it. Because in that situation it would've been ridiculous. Funnily enough he did Schindler's List, which is much closer to point than any of Fiennes' movies imo.

[@Adnan-lt5rn]

When he says "DID YOU SEE STAR WARS"?! he flips two birds. at 2:55.

[@227elnegro]

Dude I didn't even know that XD

[@okaymckay]

Dean M what do you mean "flips two birds"?

[@Adnan-lt5rn]

He sticks up his middle fingers.

[@okaymckay]

Right. Like the "F U" gesture?

[@Adnan-lt5rn]

Yes that's what flipping the bird means.

[@bijibadness]

Aw, his "beloved wife". I remember hearing she died, and just as the first 'taken' movie was doing so great and he was on top of the world. It was totally heartbreaking

[@twitch.101]

I love Liam Neesan. He seems like such a funny guy, and at the same time so commanding

[@invisi6l339]

idk why but i just find him to be submissive material. he was like a big gentle teddy bear

[@thanksfernuthin]

His respect for those veterans brought a tear to my eye.

[@pyrophobia133]

Liam Neeson isn't killing anyone in this scene

[@shriharihudli8596]

Ding!

[@CheckYourHealthUS]

Beautiful story.

[@commandingnationsintl7792]

Loved that. Gotta be a humble guy to do that.

[@southpawbillings9292]

How silent the crowd was. Respect.

[@whatupvr666]

i wonder if they said "we love you in the Schindler's List." what should Liam do? Since they were both in it.

[@iagree5313]

It's been a while now. From where I sit, you made a too honest blunder in your attempt to be out and honest. Pull your head in mate and be sincere . x

[@ranirutledge]

obviously he’d sign his name because he didn’t now they thought he was someone else

[@davidnavarro4821]

@@rsmith8434 Then the people say : « oh! So you’re not Ralph Fiennes ?! »

[@sarahmonroe3096]

I can't help but always think of the terrible mistake the Academy made when they gave the Oscar to Tommy Lee instead of Ralph...then again, mistakes are what the Oscars are famous for.

[@J_Rossi]

This actually is, as Liam says here, a very touching story. Funny, and touching too. I'm glad I found this link. :)

[@bobojo37]

I just thought it was incredibly thoughtful that he did that for them. To swallow one's pride out of sheer respect is not as easy as some people think.

[@SoccrFrk4life]

such an underrated comment

[@Cathee.M.]

It's Ralph, not Ray...

[@lidis9348]

It's pronounced "Reif/Rafe" not Ralph. I don't think he likes it when people call him Ralph. It's how it's pronounced in Welsh, I think.

[@Cathee.M.]

Lidi Silva I know how to pronounce his name, I was refferring to the spelling XD

[@lidis9348]

Ohhh right . *blushes awkwardly*

[@NYGiantsMANNING10]

I'm not sure but I think Ray might be a nickname of Ralph's.

[@AlanOshea10]

Yea its Ralph but its pronounced '' Rayff '' isn't it ?

[@loulie1997]

"I was with my beloved wife" Knife to the heart. What a tragedy.

[@anngunnery]

A True Class Act he is

[@joediaa5993]

you're right

[@TheOrangeType]

I'm honestly surprised they didn't confuse him for Ray Fiennes from Schindlers list. How funny would that be? Same Actors, same film, shared scenes, still confused. I would have died.

[@mckinleyschwartz6496]

Well, Liam played the guy who saved Jews from the concentration camps, while Ralph played an evil asshole.

[@bookloverwholovestocook3669]

Ralph Fiennes, when he was on the Graham Norton show, said that Liam Neeson's fans get him confused for Liam Neeson. The two of men have been friends since they made Schindler's List so they probably do know each other's handwriting to get away with forging them. Perhaps, when they were starting out, there may have been the similarity.

[@ChaosKingable]

And James Nesbitt , on the same show, implied they both had giant wangs.

[@2007words]

Dat Star Wars reference tho. So even Neeson is gracious enough to lampoon that garbage. Reminds me of that scene in Superbad, "You familiar with Yoda? ...from Attack of the Clones."
