These 7 Oscar Acceptance Speeches Will Inspire You Like Nothing Else Today

Oscar season is officially upon us. And today we recollect those moments that actually make the Oscars as watchable as the movies it is organised to honour. A.k.a The Oscar Acceptance Speeches.

Now, we have mentioned the importance of Oscars several times before. We have also talked about how Oscars are especially important for the small-budgeted films that can benefit greatly from such a high recognition. A thing that is more appreciative about Oscars is that how it not only appreciates the films releasing in the United States but from all over the world. 

And so on...

The point is the Oscar trophy is a great honour and for the people who do end up getting it, it is a moment so surreal that they make for great Oscar moments.

On that note, here are the speeches that can make your day:

Tom Hanks,  Winning Best Actor for Philadelphia (1994)

Ben Affleck and Matt Damon, Winning Best Original Screenplay for Good Will Hunting (1998)

Robin Williams, winning Best Supporting Actor for Good Will Hunting (1998)
