1. (Tie)Michael Moore and John Wayne
In 2003, Moore won for his documentary Bowling For Columbine. His speech began on political fashion but Moore, being Moore, ended with a strong, short, humorous and sweet political tirade. Oh, it is the most hardcore speech I have ever heard.
Michael Moore’s Speech Highlight: Shame on you, Mr. Bush, shame on you. And any time you got the Pope and the Dixie Chicks against you, your time is up!”
John Wayne won Best Actor for True Grit. He is the, to this day, only winner to have every thanked the movie viewing public for supporting the movie industry and with that, I say, “Thank you too Mr. Wayne”.
John Wayne’s Speech Highlight: Wow! If I’d have known that, I would have put that patch on thirty-five years earlier… tonight I don’t feel very clever, very witty. I feel very grateful, very humble, and all thanks to many, many people. (He looked directly at the camera to speak to the viewing audience) To all you people who are watching on television, thank you for taking such a warm interest in our glorious industry. Good night.
This man is a league of his own. No, he does not belong to any list : Charlie Chaplin
![]()
After being deported out of the U.S. despite his contribution to the movie industry and after years away from the limelight, Charlie Chaplin returned to the United States to accept an Honorary Oscar®. That night, he felt truly honored. It was not enough but it was the least Hollywood can do for the man whom it owes its existence to.
The Speech Highlight: Oh, thank you so much. This is an emotional moment for me, and words seem so futile, so feeble. I can only say that…thank you for the honor of inviting me here, and, oh, you’re wonderful, sweet people. Thank you.
