The Kimmel School of Perfect Acting PART 1

Almost every Academy Award-winning actor has someone to whom they owe a great debt, which is why we’re taking time to honor a man who influenced more of them than anyone. His name is Jim Kimmel. It is time to pay tribute to the greatest, most prolific and revered acting coach who ever lived. This tribute features Benedict Cumberbatch, Lupita Nyong’o, Harvey Weinstein, Mila Kunis, Eddie Redmayne, Jeff Bridges, Kristen Bell, Susan Sarandon, Jennifer Aniston and Gary Oldman.

[@israelm6638]

oh wow, seeing Harvey Weinstein today is like, super awkward.

[@GuineaPigEveryday]

Exactly my thoughts, I cringed and recoiled so hard. I mean I watch some of the Golden Globes (I think 2016) and I see like Harvey Weinstein laughing with Cate Blanchett, someone who was also a victim to his stunts, and its so weird. None of us knew and that's extremely scary.

[@dynamiqueunitaire2.056]

Feel the same

[@aliengranpa]

I had to check the date on the video when I saw him

[@ndlondlomabuya5181]

Very awkward 😅

[@fluffy_1542]

What did he do?

[@nickjjismyhusband]

Omg poor Eddie, his frightened face was hopeless and adorable...can I just hug him?

[@mrwinter6269]

and Kiss him hahaa

[@sarahfarag9024]

that was my thought exactly .. he was genuinely scared!!

[@krystalphan8871]

he is great actor

[@ashleighcastillo5482]

How could jimmy throw something at that sweet little angel 😆 Eddie's so adorable

[@dtectivpopcorn6484]

He looks like just a regular white dude to me

[@lacrimosa5213]

Eddie is so great at passionate screaming. Like wow. That was amazing.

[@kale11111]

Gary Oldman acting in a paper bag is better than most.

[@mariamama11]

[@wildcard749]

It was hilarious

[@aymiraydinli5655]

i mean wow, that acting from Eddie , it may be just a funny sketch but, he is incredible in it, just wow

[@lokeyadams6799]

I was almost brought to tears from the way he did that one line

[@vardellsfolly5200]

Eddie Redmayne is raw passion.

[@Sammi_W]

+Λαυρέντιος Ψαροκάηκας I think the best thing is that in the space of, like, seconds, he's actually about to cry. Probably imagining his wife missing or dead or something.

[@UltimateKyuubiFox]

+Sam W. It's called acting. You don't need to torture yourself to do it.

[@lokeyadams6799]

The way he spoke that line! Wow!

[@WhereYouGoIGo11]

I love how serious this is lol

[@gitbint]

WhereYouGoIGo I love how Harvey Weinstein is in it. And how serious that is.

[@jamiegdubois]

"So short. Such a short little person. More like a hobbit than anything. Speak up, Muppet Baby!"

[@basketanand]

That part was so funny, I’m surprised the audience didn’t laugh

[@TonyVega123]

Does he have all those A listers on speed dial or? Jesus..I can't even get my best friends to show up for a barbecue.

[@MrSonnychristie]

That’s cause you barbecue egg plant and give away used sex toys as gift bags... word got around buddy.

[@alyssavillarreal408]

Tony Vega it’s cause they get paid

[@haroonmushtaq1287]

Dear U r absolutely right

[@anthonyisgro7185]

I'll come to your BBQ. ...But only because your name is Tony.

Eddie Redmayne was great in this vid and in 'The Theory of Everything.' He deserves his Oscar.

[@PhotoAdvanced]

The Kimmel School obviously works. Gary Oldman won an Oscar

[@LittleB2007]

And the mean teacher Kimmel ordered Oldman to have his Oscar washed on the show lol

[@monikaszklarska5766]

And Eddie as well.

[@tempestnitro5869]

and Matt Damon didn't get it

[@langdonalger9219]

And Oldman didn’t even thank Kimmel in his acceptance speech.

[@CanadianRM4]

Gary Oldman's paper bag acting got me crying tears!! 😂

[@iamsherlocked345]

i know right! he looked so proud to have acted out of the paper bag lol!

[@gega27tt]

me too whenever i watch the video again im almost crying as soon as gary Oldman appears on the screen

[@Marianita195]

If you think about it, it does take amazing acting skills to say all these things and look that convinced!

[@brandonnewby178]

Hahaha! Thank you! I was going to say the same thing only more humorously. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@keiko4043]

Eddie Redmayne is such a gem I love him 😂😂

[@xx44BellaLuna44xx]

1:46 Eddie's puppy dog eyes. OMG I died.

[@kellydavis6243]

"I saw Frozen last night...... It was shit" Ahahah! Kimmel killed it, he definitely need to make this a recurring character :]

[@mishkishh]

Eddie Redmayne & his reaction to when Jimmy Kimmel threw that bottle is just adorable

[@AW-ex8fn]

"every moment in which you aren't acting, you are dying" it's supposed to be funny in exaggeration but it's oddly deep.

[@ItsMrE.K.]

this is the funniest kimmel skech ever.

[@dreface2]

Emre Karaman I agree and the Toddlwrs and Tiaras skit with Tom Hanks!

[@karthikarumugam2968]

[@alejandroserrano7755]

Jules Mather Well people knew about it, there is a reason as to why he was in this script

There is nothing to be offended off..

[@patrickandersen412]

Jeff Bridges laughing at Jennifer’s expense is hilarious. Especially when he takes notes while doing it.

[@Jones-cr6vl]

That harvey weinstein cameo is a lot more awkward now than 2 years ago

[@geohart4583]

[@alexiz0013]

Alexiz001 But seriously though, this is so good...they need to do, like, 2 parts a year or something until they run out of actors. Seriously, this is so freakin awesome, especially for "all things movie" fans like me!!

Dude I EFFING love Eddie so much. Bought his biography. He's my role model. Greatest actor I've ever seen.

[@Partanina]

I had to clean up my screen after I saw the part with Gary Oldman in the paper bag. I thought he would have a small paper bag on his head and instead I saw a big ass paper bag with the name Gary on it and with Gary in it acting his way out. Thanks Kimmel! :D

[@tuyetnhitran4342]

Khrono lol I saw your cmt and thought it was a bag about half the body. Actually see the clip and laugh my heart out

@Cyrxn I try not to advise people like you...judging by the amount of respect you have for women I won't be surprised if the only relationship you have had is with your own hand

[@mihirchaturvedi3296]

Judging by Cyrxn 's comment it is clear now more than ever that social media should really have an IQ filter... For what it's worth at least we can't see people's faces...cuz I am pretty sure he looks like an inbred

This meme only works when something is so random, no one could have possibly asked for it... Not when Kimmel specifically asks them to breathe words into one another's mouth.

[@brianmallen8887]

The thing is, the arbitrary silliness of it, the imagination of the humorous bits, the degree of torture for laughs, somehow could be a damn good acting class. Believe it or not the stuff Kimmel is doing could provide "aha" moments for serious actors.
