    For 40 years Hollywood had been possessing this treasure, this marvellous combination of inborn talent and acquired style James Coburn by name. His teacher, Stella Adler could be proud of him for he never lost his unique style and never was boring. James Coburn was a really great actor and deserved this reward and the triumph.

  • @codyhoskins1319

    I just watched Affliction and he's truly chilling in that role. I also found out that this was the only award he actually took home that year and none from any of the other award ceremonies. That's pretty rare when typically the same people keep winning the acting categories at every major award show. Coburn's win must have been one of those terrific surprises for a little film that hasn't gotten a lot of notice since then.

    Coburn was the epitomy of cool. One of the best voices and a fantastic persona. Thornton gave one of my favorite performances ever in A Simple Plan and I wished he would've won. But he had already been awarded an Oscar two years earlier. Watching this favorite of mine accept the award after decades of great work - and knowing now that two years later he would pass away - I'm glad he had this moment.

    James Coburn: What a great man he was. What else can I say . It’s unlikely that we’ll ever see such actors as these again . ALthough, I hope we do . Unpretentious!

    An actor from a different era picking up an Oscar in modern times is testament to his ability. Beat some big competition and rightfully so. He was great in Affliction.

    Do you think Judi Dench deserved the win for Mrs. Brown or Notes on a Scandal?

    Something of a surprise winner - as he had not won at any previous award shows that season. Probably worked in his favor - being a 70 year old veteran nominated for the first time. Audience was clearly practicing for their response to the Elia Kazan Award later on - by refusing Mr. Coburn a standing ovation.

    First of all, there were rarely standing ovations during the 80's and 90's
    Not to mention, they were probably stunned that Billy Bob Thornton did not win, Thornton was the best, Duval a close second, then Coburn, Ed Harris and finally Geoffrey Rush in the least deserving nomination

    CLASS CLASS CLASS. This was really a sad/happy farewell to sixties "cool". He was one of those actors that no matter the project, when you saw him on screen it was always "oooh, I like that l guy" He really should have been nominated for "Pat Garret and Billy the kid" but Hollywood had a hate on for Peckinpah thus the snub. Do yourself a favor and watch his later interviews, such a wise man.
