Alex Guinness to
And Alec Guinness and Martin Landau.
River Phoenix??
Yeah, Rest in piece River...
and Dean Stockwell
Everyone but Kevin Klein is dead now.
River is like a breath of fresh air. Such a gentle spirit. His family must miss him so.....
It's because of them he's dead
Another dead junkie

The way River reacted, you can tell that he was truly happy for him!! In fact River was not at all afraid if he would win or loose. You could see it in his eyes that he didn't care
+Vegan AF He co-starred with Kevin Kline in "I Love You to Death".
klausweasley yep!
+Vegan AF It's called being off your face :)
Rivers was a true class act.
I believe this ceremony occurred while they were filming the movie "I Love You To Death" together.
Kevin Kline's performance in A Fish Called Wanda is the sort I immediately think of whenever trying to come up with an example of wonderfully nuanced comedic acting. You need to be both a great actor and comedian to pull that performance off.
In & Out is another comedy he is great in. Nuanced role, for sure.
He did the same thing sort in "I Love You To Death".
@@jamievidd775 Love that film. Yes, Kline was terrific in that one, too. The entire cast was superb; River, Tracy Ullman, and the lady that played the mother in law, forget her name, but very good. William Hurt and Keanu Reeves were off the charts, hilarious. That pool playing scene, in the bar. Harlen and Marlon. Lmao!
I just saw A Fish Called Wanda for the first time recently and loved it. Kevin Klein was so hilarious that I vaguely remembered that he might have won an Oscar for his performance, I figured he HAD to do I looked it up to confirm that he did. Very well deserved.
I came here to see the three fine Classic actors announcing the finalists:
Sir Sean Connery, Sir Roger Moore & Sir Michael Caine.
All three are Legends and in the same place at the same time, recorded for posterity..
RIP Sir Roger Moore..
RIP Sir Sean Connery
RIP Sir Sean
rip me, goodbye everybody
@@nothing5283 Noooooooooo don’t go
Lots of comments about River wildly cheering, but at the time of the Academy Awards ceremony he and Kevin Kline were filming the movie 'I Love You to Death' (1990). I thinks this explains him applauding enthusiastically when his co-star's name was announced as the winner.
:o
Doesn't make it any less sweet. He was humble and lovely.
Jarred Knox how
de hecho, River dijo en una entrevista.. QUE ESTABA MUY FELIZ POR ÉL.
Actually, this *Oscar* ceremony was held in *March 1989* and production for *_I Love You to Death_* did not begin until *April 1989.*
River looked happier than Kevin Kline did aw
Juliet Siân true but Kline was probably stunned by the win.
I bet it was because they were introduced and going to be working on the film "I Love You To Death" which came out 2 years after Wanda.
maybe cause Wanda was a good movie and comedies don't win Oscars very much
@@GoddessOfWhim2003 at all...
Juliet Siân u r pretty
River Phoenix reaction was spectacular!!
Though he was happy he didn’t win, he still got to support Kevin Kline for the win
They were filming “I Love You to Death” together at the time
@Alex Kanyima but river was too
How many teenagers have been nominated for an Oscar?... River was just 19 at the time. He was such a promising young actor, so sad he left us so soon.
He was actually still 18. His birthday is August 23, 1970. This Oscar ceremony was held on March 29, 1989. He turned 19 later that year.
There are a few teenagers that have been nominated throughout the years :
Keisha Castle-Hughes - 13 years old (Whale Rider).
Saoirse Ronan - 13 years old (Atonement).
Hailee Steinfeld - 14 years old (True Grit).
Jodie Foster - 14 years old (Taxi Driver).
Patty Duke - 16 years old (The miracle worker).
Jack Wild - 16 years old (Oliver).
Sal Mineo - 17 years old (Rebel without a cause).
River Phoenix - 18 years old
Leonardo DeCaprio - 19 years old (Whats eating Gilbert Grape).
Mickey Rooney - 19 years old (Babes in arms).
@@PlacidDragon Anna Paquin
@@janey4363 Anna was 11, so not a teenager :)
@@musicaltheatergeek79 And he had turned 17 during the filming of Running On Empty.
Fun fact: Kevin Kline and Phoebe Cates have been married for over 3 decades. That deserves some kind of award, especially in Hollywood
I think they live in New York.
@@jamesanthony5681 Of course. Thanks a lot!
Goldie and Kurt have them beat even though they have never been married
I love River Phoenix's reaction!
Cheyenne Joy -- He was going to work with Kline on a film called "I Love You To Death" soon after.
I love you 😁😁
Good spot! I thought the same thing! I wonder if they were already under contract for the movie as it only came out 2 years after this one and it is plausible they were already introduced. I bet that would explain his reaction which at first I thought was because I Love You To Death came out before this.
Cheyenne Joy yuyyy
Can´t see River Phoenix. Give me the time please.
SO deserved. One of the best comedic performances of all time. Nice to see the academy finally show some respect to comedy.
to bad Tom Cruise was'n even nominated for best supporting actor for rain man, generally i should replacing Dean Stockwell to put Tom Cruise in the nomination
alex kanyima Hoffman won cruise snubbed bale won Wahlberg snubbed
ai me colocam um ingles e um escoces pra entregar a estatua. ah quem vc pensa que vai ganhar?
+RoseisoutofherTOGA the Academy does support comedy, always has, when they are actually funny and done well...It Happened One Night, Ninotchka, Harvey, Blazing Saddles, The Producers, Paper Moon, Bullets Over Broadway, Annie Hall, Mighty Aphrodite, Auntie Mame, The Philadelphia Story, Ghost, Cactus Flower, The Apartment, As Good As It Gets, Hanna and her Sisters, California Suite...all the above were nominated for several academy awards and in some cases won. Many of them were for acting and writing. They range from 1930's to now. There are several others but can't think rt now which. The Academy has always loved a good laugh and applauded comedic acting. Josephine Hull's win for Harvey, Mira Sorvino's win for Mighty Aphrodite, Diane Weist's 2 Oscars for Hanna and one for Bullets, Diane Keaton's win for Annie Hall, Claudette Colbert's win for It Happened one Night, as well as Clark Gables win for It Happened one Night, Whoopi's win for Ghost, Maggie Smiths win for California Suite, Michael Cane's win for Hanna well you get the picture 😉 Smile Always 😀
+Cisco C. Yeah, too bad it was the wrong one. Actually, lots of comedies and comic roles have been awarded Oscars. You probably just don't know about them. The reason drama is honored more often is probably because comedy is harder to do. "Dying is easy. Comedy is hard." --Sir Edmund Keane on his deathbed... supposedly.
oh god..River's passion and excitement when Kevin won! lol Love that pure-hearted guy!
When I first saw A Fish Called Wanda the whole time I was thinking "Damn, Kevin Kline deserves an Oscar for this performance!" and then I found out he did win the Oscar and I was so happy!
+teheyepatch That's your problem. He stunk up the screen with that hammy excuse for a performance, just as he usually does. He should have been buried under that bulldozer two hours earlier. Kline's best performance ever: Soapdish. Why? Because he played a ham! It's called typecasting.
+TheChannel.TV Man...Your such a jerk!
now he should be black to win.
@@nnnnnn3647 He should be back to win, you mean?
Kline truly played one of the funniest characters in film history. Hilarious performance nothing short of perfection.
Kevin Kline: Brilliant in "A Fish Called Wanda." In my opinion, one of the greatest comedies of all time.
Yup.
Every movie with him in my opinion deserves to be loved.
Disappointeeed! NOT
I think what's so amazing about the film is that it's not only hilarious but it's got incredible acting and a very creative story.
Totally agree. It's a classic and he's the best part. "Asshole!!"
When an actor wins an Oscar for a comedy role, you know you are watching a great talent.
Yasss exactly brah..
It's not uncommon to see wins for comedy roles in the Supporting category, but it certainly is in the lead actor/actress category.
@@tonyhughes110 More like it's _rare_ to see wins for comedy roles in *Best Supporting Actor/Actress* and almost _unheard of_ in *Best Actor/Actress.* The *Oscars* tend to favor drama, which I think was *hiromisky's* point.
@@tonyhughes110Not all that common.
I just came here to see River. Look at his reaction being more happy than Kline he didn't care for awards man classy young man.
It's just an act. Showing the Academy what a good sport he is in the hope it will help him win next time.
I'm not criticising him for that, a lot of them do it.
Classy? He died of a drug overdose. Sad, yes. Classy? Definitely not.
@@antman674 he looked high here too
if you've never seen Kevin Klein in this movie, you should and you'll see why he won. An amazingly versatile actor over many years.
RIP Sir Roger Moore (October 14, 1927 - May 23, 2017), aged 89
And
RIP Sir Sean Connery (August 25, 1930 - October 31, 2020), aged 90
You both will always be remembered as legends.
This was Kevin Kline's first Academy Award nomination and only Oscar win.
Since 1976, he did appeared in a series of projects: features, television and
more.
Since 1986, he's now married to Phoebe Cates and lived in New York State with
their lovely children.
Congratulations, Kevin!
I never saw Connery & Moore together. Loved it!
I really like it when comedy performances win Oscars, and Kevin Kline's performance is one of the very best.
Kline really earned that award for his performance in that movie.
Being nominated to an Oscar at the age of 18, between all those older and more experienced actors is really something! He did great, just look at him 😍
River at least deserved the award for “most humble reaction to losing” 🥹
Rest in peace to two great legends Sir Sean Connery and Roger Moore :(
Kevin Kline later said a lot of film critics said he was the dark horse candidate and everyone had picked either River Phoenix or the older veteran actors to win. River and Kevin were in I Love You To Death which came out a year after the telecast and River's excitement shows he was glad his colleague and friend won. If River was still alive, he'd be one of the most in demand and respected actors.
Yeah he was the real thing
river was so humble. look how proud he is of kevin. bless him💕
I'm just here for River. He was such an amazing and talented actor ♡♡♡
me too
+Soni Barcelona LOL he was garbage and now he's dead good riddance, Sir Connery Sir Moore and Sir Caine are legendary actors who had actual careers, River is a nobody scrub along with his brother.
+Grigori Rasputin fake
+Grigori Rasputin Joaquin is much more talented. Walk the line, The Master, Her. Give him some credit.
Grigori Rasputin Call him what you will. Regardless of the due credit he was never given, he was still the greatest actor who ever lived.
Of course, no one could've known at the time that River Phoenix would only have a little over four years left to live. What a career he would've had.
She deserved a nomination for " My Own Private Idaho"...he had a lot of talent yo show up.
Yuyyue bună h
@@DraPaulaFlor If it's any consolation, he won the prestigious Volpi Cup for Best Actor at the 1991 Venice Film Festival for that film.
Nice try boldly comment but
no icing on the cake. Sorry.
Kevin was so handsome back then, he had that old Hollywood charm about him
FlashakaViolet my favourite of all time.
Back then? He looks nearly the same now!
He had that Douglas Fairbanks Jr., panache about him. Oh wait, he actually played him in Chaplin. Perfect casting.
@@waynej2608I believe he also played Errol Flynn
Kline is one of those brilliant actors who truly deserves more than one Oscar and nominations. He's one of the greats!
Everything about this is brilliant. The opening skit is genuinely funny, River Phoenix reaction and just the fact that Kevin Kline won an oscar for a straight up comedy.
I love River's ecstatic reaction. He thought, so did everyone, that he'd have many chances to win the Oscar in the future. It's sad looking back... BTW Kevin Kline was incredible in A Fish Called Wanda. He deserved the win IMO
Great for Kevin, a wonderful performance but also a great reaction from River, really beautiful to see... :)
I'm glad someone mentioned River. :)
I loved how happy he was. It reminds me of when Joaquin lost to Hoffman and Del Toro. Both times, he just had the biggest smile on his face. Ahh, I miss River...
+Cinema Cola Someone? Who the hell didn't? Enough already.
Well deserved, Kevin nailed that role.
you don't see people reacting the way River did anymore. what a genuine reaction! and congratulations Kevin!
I watched a fish called wanda and Kevin was literally so hilarious in it😂😂 well deserved win. River was also astonishing in running on empty for an 18 year old.
I've been watching so many River Phoenix videos and I keep seeing your name in the comments we have a lot in common 😂💓💓
+Beth C-D Awh I think I've seen you before too! Haha. And thank you! Yes there's nothing to dislike about River, he was so pure and truthful!
He should have received a golden globe nomination for his performance.
Kline was also very good in Sophie's Choice.
He got that part on Meryl Streep's recommendation, even though he hadn't worked much onscreen beforehand.
Rest In Peace: Roger Moore (1927 - 2017) and Sean Connery (1930 - 2020)
The best two Bonds who made the most Bond films.
And River Phoenix too
It’s crazy Roger was born 3 years before Sean and Sean died 3 years after Roger both died at age 90 wow
We lost two James Bond’s.
"We lost two James Bond’s."
* *Bonds.* With exceptions so rare that they can be all but ignored, an apostrophe-s NEVER makes a word plural, it makes a singular possessive. Example: There have been *eight James Bonds* on TV and movie screens, but *one Bond's* portrayal stands out in the minds of many: Sean Connery's.
@@milesalpha1 "3, David Niven."
4. Don't forget the first James Bond, from the 1954 TV production of "Casino Royale" -- Barry Nelson, who died in 2007.
2:42. River is like "AW FUCK YEAH!".
What kind of talk is that will help us understand?
I love Kevin Kline’s voice it is like butter. I want to hear him do audio books!
I saw Kevin Kline for the first time as a Frenchman in 'The French Kiss' so it was quite amazing for me to hear him speaking in his real-life American accent in this video. He sounded very different from his character in that movie.What a fantastic actor!
French kiss brought me here. 😁 I hope to buy the movie
@Sharon Jensen His second was Pirates of Penzance. A greater rubber neck in terms of tone is hard to find. Btw he was great as the Pirate King.
Kevin Kline one of my favorite actors. Love him in this movie as well as Dave, French Kiss. They showed Meg Ryan who then played with Kevin Kline 7 years later in French Kiss. Love their chemistry in that romantic movie😁
Luv sean and roger together!!!!...RIP Sir roger moore...so sad😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Kevin Kline, probably the most underrated actor of all time.
River Phoenix was such an amazing talent. A natural actor. Some of us still watch his movies and miss the actor that he was.
My own private..
31 years later River's brother won the Oscar
They should give the oscar to River but no one would know that he would dead in few years.
But for best actor in a LEADING ROLE
But it's not the same.
"...an my wife, Phoebe!" wow he just remembered her in the nick of time XD
Phoebe was almost ready to sign the divorce papers.
What are you both smoking, they're clearly in love. And they're still together 31 years later
@@falconeshield ok boomer
At the buzzer..nailed it!!
@@newbiechu7024 Well, you're wrong, man. Kevin Kline & Phoebe Cates were one of Hollywood's greatest couples. According to Dame Vera Lynn, they're clearly in love since 1982 and they're happily married with
both great kids since 1990.
Caine and Connery cooked up the David Puttnam joke without telling Moore - which explains his reaction.
+Michael Muldowney But Caine and Connery still look the same today just grayer.
Kevin Kline was SO fabulous in this movie!!!
Kevin Kline deserve the Oscar for best supporting actor his performance was fantastic
River: lost Oscar
Also River: screaming in excitement and extremely overjoyed XD
I love him so much.
River was unforgettable in Running On Empty ,really sad and secretive in that role.
my own private idaho
BRAD PITT Yes he gave a strong performance in My Own Private Idaho for sure.
Jamies Torch strong ? it is his best
+Jamies Torch Yes that was his best acting by far but what a pretentious movie.
TheChannel.TV What ? Idaho or Running On Empty ? Some of the script with the kids is awful in MOPI .
Sadly Moore and Connery aren't with us anymore...
Kevin Kline was wonderful in Wanda, and I’m glad I saw this. I didn’t watch that years Oscar!
I'm here to see River, how nice to see him here, thank you for posting
I'm here to see Kevin. Well deserved Oscar and classy guy!
kline has that rare mix of natural dignity and playful charm that not a lot of actors possess, and for that he will always be one of my faves
I really wish River Phoenix had won for "Running on Empty." He was the very BEST
actor of his generation who died to soon. And that movie was directed by the
fantastic director Sidney Lumet, who just passed away. River was so happy for
Kevin Kline too.
I watched A Fish Called Wanda for the first time recently and loved it. Kevin Klein was hysterical in it and I vaguely remembered that he won an Oscar for it, I figured he HAD to have won so I looked it up to confirm. Very well deserved win.
Wanted River to win so bad. We were the same age. He deserved to win and also be nominated in 1992 as BEST ACTOR in one of my favorite movies of all time: MY OWN PRIVATE IDAHO. Still miss you and LOVE YOU River. RIP.
Definitely check out all our playlists for the best Oscar bits.
Back when actors/actresses could remember many lines of dialogue! Most are lucky to hold on to a few! Kevin Kline very animated, able to separate that cliche about the fine line between comedy and fear/violence.
"There's a lot of Brits here tonight. It's scary." 😂😁 Great seeing Kevin Kline win his Oscar for a truly, hilarious role in "A Fish called Wanda." RIP to Sir Sean Connery, Sir Roger Moore, and River Phoenix. 🙏🙏🙏
one of the Academy's finest choices ever
Such a deserved win! Isn't it CRAZY to know that Kevin Kline is the only one of these nominees still alive!
As crazy and sadistic as he was in the film, Kevin Kline put in an outstanding performance! His win was well deserved.
In Michael Palin's published diaries, he talks in depth about the rehearsal and film process with Kevin. He took his role extremely seriously and really put everything into it. It showed!
River was so glad he didn't win. He was never one of those actors that were full of themselves. He had such a compassionate soul.
Kevin Kline was great, but River Pheonix was unforgettable in "Running on Empty." The scene at night with his girlfriend was as good as it gets.
At that time, River Phoenix and Kevin Kline are filming I Love You To Death together. A great movie including ensemble cast : Tracey Ullman, Joan Plowright, William Hurt and Keanu Reeves.
There is too much awesome in this video.
There is too much "overratedness" in this video. River, Kline, Michael Caine, Sean Connery, Roger Moore. The all time overrated brits. Sweet god.
There will only ever be one BOND...JAMES BOND. RIP Sir Sean Connery born only three months before my own late mother, and RIP RIVER PHOENIX. I always knew HALLOWEEN was bad luck!!
1.Most entertaining moment in any Oscar Ceremony.
Three British legends and gentlemen .
Michael Caine and the two best James Bond actors, Sean Connery and Roger Moore
2. For me, either Kevin Kline ( who actually won ) or the unforgettable and talented River Phoenix deserved to win.
Sean Connery and Michael Caine in the same room.. This is better than Christmas!!
one of the best oscar winning perfomances of this category
one of Heath Ledger favorite performances and the reason Kline was chosen to introduce heath's oscar intro in 2009
Don't call him stupid!
I love Kevin Kline so much, he's a fantastic actor and his voice is just lovely
awww my little rio
Kline is epic in this, and his win was deserved. A River Phoenix win would've been fine, too, imo. He was that good.
True
River Phoenix brought me here!
Kevin kline brought me here! Great, all around actor and performer!
River Phoenix was the only actor born in the 1970's who was making a living as an actor in the 1980's. Everyone else his generation got careers around the time of and after his death.
Me too
same!
...and it was 30 years ago. How ironic it it. I miss so much the 80s. Oscars was so much fun to watch with all these class actors.
How did the crowd not roar with laughter at Kevin's "There a lot Brits here tonight... Scary..." It was the perfect line for Otto's character.
Maybe they hadn't seen the movie.
River was so excited and happy for Kevin Kline
Sir roger moore and Sir sean connery....luv bond.....and michael caine of course
River Phoenix.... I'll never forget him...
River starred with Kevin Kline in I Love You to Death, so I wouldn't doubt it if they were friends. That's one of the greatest comedies of all time!
Just watched A Fish Called Wanda he was so hilarious 😂 very well-deserved Oscar
RIP Sean Connery and Roger Moore!!!
I loved to see Connery and Moore together and joking around about James Bond.
Amazing, looks like this was filmed yesterday, just watched the film
Sean Connery, Michael Caine, Roger Moore, Kevin Kline, River Phoenix- what an amazing clip- but the best part of it was the 1/10th of a second shot of the most beautiful woman in history, Phoebe Cates, Kevin Kline's lottery award is much more impressive than his Oscars. Can't believe they're still married after 28 years.
One of the Academy's greatest decisions. Comedic or serious, the movie is brilliant and Kline is mesmerizing.
Until the 1990s it was still common for an actor to win an Oscar without having won any major awards before (Geena Davis, Kevin Kline, Don Ameche, Charles Coburn, Marisa Tomei...). Today everyone knows who's gonna win because of the "awards season", lobby, Harvey Weinstein model ...
Only Five Oscar Winning Legends in the Supporting Actor Category were Don Ameche,
Charles Coburn, Kevin Kline, Geena Davis and Marisa Tomei) from 1944 to 1993,
but today everyone knows who's gonna will or lose because of the "awards season"
lobby.
I’m so happy to see some people here loving river Phoenix still and that we all remember him
The reason I like this so much is not just because Wanda is a great movie and Kevin was great in it. It's because comedies aren't considered as highly by the Academy as dramas are, which is not just a shame, it's really unfair.
Great comedy is not easy to write at the best of times. When you consider how hard it is to write 5-10 mins of comedy, writing 100 minutes that works from start to finish _and_ includes drama, suspense and romance...that's a feat.
But somehow the Academy thinks that turgid, pompous drama is the pinnacle of the medium.
i came here for river and i rly wish he was still alive to see his brothers' success (and his sisters). he was so young and talented and pure and he deserved a long happy life. he would've won many great awards by now its just sad to see such a young talent die so young he had so much ahead of him ): may he rest in peace
Its interesting to note that Dean Stockwell and River Phoenix were up against each other, both having been child actors, though Stockwell survived and rose above all of the emotional turmoil that afflicts young actors whereas Phoenix wasn't so lucky.
that's something i've been wondering about for a long time: the fact that, apart from two brief sabbaticals, stockwell managed to remain very prolific throughout his career. rip to both.
RIP Sean Connery & Roger Moore in 00-heaven 🙏 😢
What a great moment for Kevin Kline, with 3 Greats behind him and he is holding his Oscar and they follow him off stage. That is a High. He deserved it. He is great in Soap Dish.
