"I want you to know that if you can have the strength to get to your feet and go to the light good things will happen" is already one of my favorite quotes ever. such a great speech.
This speech will go down in history as the greatest speech that can literally make a grown man who never cries cry like a baby. I never ever cry and this speech just hit me like a freight train.
This dude experienced what it was like to be a worldwide star, suddenly have it all stolen from you, and then somehow rise from the ashes. It's goddamn inspiring.
@@supermariofan03 This one (and his PR firm clearly bought it). His 2 awards from Toronto and Palm Springs were not competitive awards, just handouts so that he would attend. The same as Las Cruces in 2016. The Oscar is not the same thing.
As an audience, I don't think we realize just how lucky we are to have Brendan Fraser. This man is pure gold! So authentic, so kind-hearted, and just so real and nice! He absolutely deserved this and I am so, SO happy he is back in our lives!
I actually teared up watching this. He was letting out all those emotions he had kept inside his heart for a really, really long time. It's truly amazing. Welcome back, Brendan!!
You really can just see the pain that he's been in for so long. It's heartbreaking. I'm so glad that such a wonderful and pure hearted person is being lifted back up when they need it. We need more of that in the world. He deserves this comeback.
i watched this video a few times, because it was so powerful. I really hope that some talented and creative writers can make use of Brendan for future projects. It will be really hard to top 'The Whale', though
Butlers is an impersonation, Frasers is off the page and as it turns out off the planet and that’s why a quiet performance should always be considered just as worthy as an extroverted one
Joaquin Phoenix’s Oscar speech used to be the best speech of all time. But Brendan’s is better. Not only being proud of yourself, but the people around you who helped you. Darren, Sadie, and Ty helped him and he in return thanked them like that. That is a true human being. Like he said, “People are amazing!”
This speech will go down in history as one of the most heartfelt gut wrenching speeches that can literally make a grown man who never cries just bawl their eyes out.
Brendan is so beautiful, man imagine a friend telling you in front of so many people that you're their "lighthouse", i would've lost it too, such a beautiful speech, go Brendan! 👏💖
Never too late for a comeback. Many congrats Brendan! 🎉🎉 Wishing you best of luck for the Oscars. PS: Just found out that Brendan's is a nominee for the Best Actor award. 🤞🤞
Loved seeing his hug/interaction with Ke Huy Quan. Two brilliant actors who have suffered a lot of mistreatment in Hollywood only to come back into some of the best roles of the last few years. Love them both and that support was beautiful!
Брэндан, ты остался человеком, несмотря на травлю, грязные сплетни, предательство. Это то, за что тебя любят, обожают, ждут и искренне радуются за тебя. Ты искренний, честный, добрый. Ты - настоящий! Удачи тебе, Брэндан!
Brendan was the perfect match to play Charlie because of his personal demons and the depression he went through. Completely deserved and hope he wins the Oscar!
I love him! 💛 As a therapist... I try to help clients see this every day. He said it with so much love and passion... he touched so many with this movie, his gift and this speech. Praying he wins the Oscar. 💛☀️
The movie premiered in my country just a few days ago. I just came from the theater and his performance broke me in pieces. It's a movie that leaves you with a deep impression. He and Hong Chau deserve the Oscar.
I remember watching him as a kid in George of the Jungle and The Looney Tunes Movie and then...he was just gone. I'm so glad he's back, this man deserves the world!
I have adored this man since Airheads. He is a genuine, kind, and decent guy. He has gone through so much, and he kept on trying. He deserves ever accolade heaped upon him.
The oscar should be his period. Austin did an amazing job and he will have more opportunities for an oscar but Brendan had to dig himself out and did an amazing performance despite everything he went through. He deserves the award not only for his performance, but for his perseverance and inspiration to many. This is the chance the academy has to give the award to a man that truly deserves it.
Ani O No reason. He's had 57 movies over 32 years. 6 series just over the past 7 years If you didn't see them, it's only because you weren't paying attention.
Just been to see The Whale. This film floored me. Never have I been so moved by a performance. Brendan Fraser you deserve every award coming your way. Wonderful writing and directing too.
I’m glad he’s back on screen and making movie 🎥 films 🎥 again, it’s been a long time and he’s finally return. And he’s still one of my favorite actors of all time.
This speech is so inspiring. Brendan is such a wonderful human being and a fantastic actor. His performance in the Whale was so phenomenal. I am so glad that Brendan got the recognition that he truly deserves. Such a well deserved honor and I am glad he won the Oscar. All of these awards and honors could not have gone to a more sweeter human being than Brendan Fraser. This role made me fall in love with him.
He deserves all the accolades, he's such a humble and genuine human being and I've always loved him. I haven't watched the movie yet but the trailer makes me well up and you can tell he gives the performance of a lifetime, I can't wait to see The Whale.
This makes me so happy, an actor who should never have disappeared from the screens, one of the most loved... he deserves this and more, it was about time that all the joy he gave us during our adolescence be repaid... that He enjoys this moment a lot, he deserves it!!
Good God, there are NO WORDS that can describe how UNBELIEVABLY happy I am for him and to see him back in the limelight for a well overdue comeback! This man’s been one of many childhood staples of mine. This felt like seeing an old childhood friend again and seeing he’s doing well!!
His voice was shaking from so much emotion in his heart and soul. My late beautiful sister always loved him as a beautiful human being and actor. He deserves to be blessed with much more as I'm sure he'll win an Academy Award very soon.WELL DONE BRENDAN!!!🥂👏💖💙💙💙🔱🔱🔱🙏🙏🙏
Can you imagine that this is an actual live speech! Not a rehearsed scene, not the 16th take, not a script... but actual words from the heart of a real man. And still it has the impact of an maginificent ending scene of a movie.
This was a LONG time coming. I've always, always thought he was an incredible actor, and for the life of me couldn't understand just why he didn't get as much respect as he absolutely deserved. Here's to Brendan!!
I am so happy for one of my all time favourite actors!! His performance in The Whale was absolutley amazing!! I will never forget meeting him a few years ago.
Brendan Fraser and Keanu Reeves must be protected at all cost.
Amen
I second your statement.
Yes!!! 🫶🏻💖
Along with Terry Crews
THIS
Everyone got so loud for Brendan! I’m so glad he won 👏 👏
Came to say the same thing lol
Yup. I hope he can win the Oscars too..
Damn shame about his vocal chord surgery. His voice sounds really shot
Yeah im really happy for him. Love this dude
@@mcmltr last night he won the oscar for best actor, he finally got the comback he wanted
"I want you to know that if you can have the strength to get to your feet and go to the light good things will happen" is already one of my favorite quotes ever. such a great speech.
Mine too. Super inspiring.
This speech will go down in history as the greatest speech that can literally make a grown man who never cries cry like a baby. I never ever cry and this speech just hit me like a freight train.
Good speech
My goodness great speech but when he said that I could not hold back the tears 😭 ❤
This 2 min speech inspires me in darkness always❤
This dude experienced what it was like to be a worldwide star, suddenly have it all stolen from you, and then somehow rise from the ashes. It's goddamn inspiring.
One of the best speeches I’ve ever heard. I hope he wins the Oscar!
This traction he will win the Oscar. This comeback will be legendary
@@MakuraZalis Colin Farrell is looking more likely. He has won so many awards for Banshees, as Fraser only won a couple.
@@supermariofan03

Just like was said about Messi and the world cup... it's not Brendan that will win a oscar if that happens...it's the oscar that would win Brandon.
Who wins the cannes film festival will probably take it.
It is IMPOSSIBLE not to cry watching this video, Brendan deserves that award and much much more
Yep, but I'm so, so happy for him😍
😢 for real 🥲
As an audience, I don't think we realize just how lucky we are to have Brendan Fraser. This man is pure gold! So authentic, so kind-hearted, and just so real and nice! He absolutely deserved this and I am so, SO happy he is back in our lives!
I've always loved him.
So deserved. He's my hero. Glad to see him make such a grand return!
I actually teared up watching this. He was letting out all those emotions he had kept inside his heart for a really, really long time. It's truly amazing. Welcome back, Brendan!!
😭😭😭
Oscar next!
You really can just see the pain that he's been in for so long. It's heartbreaking. I'm so glad that such a wonderful and pure hearted person is being lifted back up when they need it. We need more of that in the world. He deserves this comeback.

When someone speaks from the heart we hear ... thank you Brendan Fraser.
💞💞💞
Yeah, Brendon is very real!! Love him!
The best comeback in Hollywood history 😭 Outstanding performance!
I'm incredibly happy for him. Stiff competition. The others were amazing as well. Well deserved.
The public adoration for Brendan Fraser is a beautiful thing... people just back him 100%... knowing what he's been through. Lovely to see.
I agree It's heartwarming I'm happy for him but kinda sad because other actors and actresses suffered the same way yet the public is like "oh, anyway"
This is a fact because nobody actually hated him he just disappeared from hollywood in the 2010s.
Hope he wins a Oscar!
He will
He’s the leading choice, really. The only reason he didn’t win the Golden Globe is pretty obvious (petty jerks).
YES! He is the one that deserves the most of all nominees, The Whale made me cry like a baby, and I don’t usually cry watching movies
It's hard, Austin Butler is great too. But just keep that hope.
Butlers is an impersonation, Frasers is off the page and as it turns out off the planet and that’s why a quiet performance should always be considered just as worthy as an extroverted one

Darren, Sadie, and Ty helped him and he in return thanked them like that. That is a true human being. Like he said, “People are amazing!”
If he wins the Oscar, he's gonna faint from happiness. He's just so grateful. He's been chasing respect and appreciation for 30 years.
Well... 😏
Ahhhh there’s no end of the onions 😭😭😭❤. He is such a talent, an intellectual and a sensitive human. We need more Brendan Frasers😊
Aw same 😭😭😭
This man deserve the Oscar 😢😢😢
@Dayana 7_BE Brendan won
Brendan Fraser is pure gold, we have to protect him ❤️
Nobody deserves this more than Brendan Fraser. So glad he's FINALLY getting the recognition he deserves!
This man was my childhood and deserves all the love you can imagine..his performance in the Whale...I'm not crying you're crying.....
I literally got up from my bed and started to scream out loud. He's a legend and an icon.
This speech will go down in history as one of the most heartfelt gut wrenching speeches that can literally make a grown man who never cries just bawl their eyes out.
That wrap up music actually worked so well with his speech lol
I hope he continues to be hired! He’s just amazing, his acting is beautiful
He will.
Brendan is so beautiful, man imagine a friend telling you in front of so many people that you're their "lighthouse", i would've lost it too, such a beautiful speech, go Brendan! 👏💖
It's About TIME 🙏 he always has been so awesome
Never too late for a comeback. Many congrats Brendan! 🎉🎉 Wishing you best of luck for the Oscars.
PS: Just found out that Brendan's is a nominee for the Best Actor award. 🤞🤞
4:00 tears came and made me so emotional and happy for this man as he's made our childhood so happy for you sir
this man deserves all the love his getting.
I love how genuinely pleased everyone is for him. Well done, sir.

So genuine, beautiful and honest! Congratulations, well deserved. I'm crying for joy and renewed hope in the goodness of life

Brendan is just a GREAT Guy!! He exudes kindness and humility.
Watching him finally being happy, after so many years of undeserved misery, brings me indescribable joy. The people's champ ❤
I can physically feel all the emotions of anguish and relief coming from him. I couldn't be happier for him.
What a wonderful moment. Congratulations Brendan.
Bravo Brendan Fraser! I hope you'll win the oscar.
Good luck!! 🍀
He cried so much this year he made me cry just watching 🥹🥰👏🏾

Always love Brendan ❤️🌹❤️
i can see a lot of pain. My favorite actor, may God bless you always, Brendan Fraser.
Jennifer Jao
He just wants a drink. There were 5 bottles on every table.
@@ifyouonlyknew811 dude, why the hate?
@@alaneskew2664 look at the profile photo and name.
Brendan Fraser made me laugh when I was a child watching George of the Jungle, now he made me cry my eyes out watching The Whale
brendan is such a good human being and i’m glad that we all get to see that abt him as he is celebrated for this outstanding performance in the whale.
The oscar should be his period.

I love this man so much! What a beautiful light he is in a darkness of Hollywood.
he's just such a good person and obviously actor. He totally deserves it. I cried with his speech
i am so happy for him literally bawling rn he deserves this so much
Honestly never been more happy tp see someone be recognised he is the sweetest soul
I am so proud of him! Looking forward to seeing more of his work! We missed him so much for far too long! 🥺♥️
Ani O
No reason. He's had 57 movies over 32 years. 6 series just over the past 7 years
If you didn't see them, it's only because you weren't paying attention.
@@ifyouonlyknew811 yes. I've been living under a rock. Can you name a few of your fav's? Would like to catch up.
Just been to see The Whale. This film floored me. Never have I been so moved by a performance. Brendan Fraser you deserve every award coming your way. Wonderful writing and directing too.
So happy for Brandon I'm crying right now I can't believe it very emotional so emotional so genuine I will go see the Whale
You know it’s a loud ovation when the sound pick-up breaks
I think they may have done that because of the music thats playing as he walks up. To avoid copyright.
I’m glad he’s back on screen and making movie 🎥 films 🎥 again, it’s been a long time and he’s finally return. And he’s still one of my favorite actors of all time.
You deserve millions of Oscar's 🤞❤️😍👏
Watching after he won the Oscar, so deserved after all injustices suffered in his career.
thank you brendan... your Speech is so powerful. and it is the message for those who are struggling. thank you once again
So moving. I'm glad he was honored.
What a way to return into the limelight his performance was great and I am so happy to see him back
You can feel the gratefulness and sincerity in his speech, after 30 yrs he finally prove that he deserves another chance. Welcome back Brendan!!!
This speech is so inspiring. Brendan is such a wonderful human being and a fantastic actor. His performance in the Whale was so phenomenal. I am so glad that Brendan got the recognition that he truly deserves. Such a well deserved honor and I am glad he won the Oscar. All of these awards and honors could not have gone to a more sweeter human being than Brendan Fraser. This role made me fall in love with him.
He will win the Oscar !!!!! He will!!!
Next, BAFTA, SAG and OSCARS 🏆🏆🏆
Well deserved Critic's Choice win 👏👍👌🎉🏆
So genuine, beautiful and well earned. I'm crying with joy and renewed hope
@@annettenardone7878 I totally agree... I even cried a tear watching this clip. After CRITICS CHOICE, I really hope he wins the OSCARS, BAFTA and SAG
I don't think Fraser will win the BAFTA. It'll either go to Colin Farrell or Bill Nighy. Then again, I could be wrong!
I returned to my comment here because Brendan got 2/3 🏆🏆🎉☺️👏 #SAG and #OSCARS super well-deserved 👏👏👏
He deserves all the accolades, he's such a humble and genuine human being and I've always loved him. I haven't watched the movie yet but the trailer makes me well up and you can tell he gives the performance of a lifetime, I can't wait to see The Whale.
So there is some justice in this world! So happy for him. Well deserved.
He deserves this and so much more, what an amazing person - someone we can all look up to ❤️
Ive never been so happy for someone i dont know . Im glad he won
This year's awards goes to all the forgotten and most deserving actors...God bless you all
This makes me so happy, an actor who should never have disappeared from the screens, one of the most loved... he deserves this and more, it was about time that all the joy he gave us during our adolescence be repaid... that He enjoys this moment a lot, he deserves it!!
I’ve never wanted an actor to win so much, Brendan needs to win everything for the next ten years
I love him and am so glad he won. God speed, Brendan. He is living proof that good things will happen to good people.
Good God, there are NO WORDS that can describe how UNBELIEVABLY happy I am for him and to see him back in the limelight for a well overdue comeback! This man’s been one of many childhood staples of mine. This felt like seeing an old childhood friend again and seeing he’s doing well!!
Im crying❤❤❤❤
he beat Austin and Tom Cruise, holy shit well done
Dont call it a comback, i've been here for years
And Bill Nighy and Collin Farrel
Not a Comback. It's a vindication.
Super happy for Brendan! He totally deserved it!
I couldnt help but cry...
Bravo Brendan!!!

His speech moved me to tears 😥
He has been through so much during the past 20 years...he has come far...
I am so happy for one of my all time favourite actors!!
His performance in The Whale was absolutley amazing!!
I will never forget meeting him a few years ago.
