ROFL! Daniel Day Lewis 'Eastwooding' @ Acceptance Speech for Lincoln & Congratulates Invisible Obama

[trailmonkee]

and he's even using the infamous 47% chair!

[Care Acutely]

1. Just one more reason to LOVE DDL.

[msongs]

2. an award for a movie that is not even out yet? wierd nt

[trailmonkee]

4. I think it has premiered in ny or something

[Lucinda]

11. Yeah it did. New York Film Festival. Early last month.

[dsc]

12. It was delayed here due to the election

but the clip is from the British film awards and maybe this film was played in Britain first.

[dsc]

14. looked it up

this is apparently a Los Angeles award and not for the film. It is for excellence in film and sounds like a life time achievement thing. South Park's creators won a similar award for comedy.

3. there is something exceedingly sweet about this.

delightful is the word that comes to mind. Thanks for posting it.

[HangOnKids]

7. Yes cali It Was Sweet, Touching and Refreshingly Poignant

DDL is a man to admire. The chair rocked as well.

[Cha]

17. "The chair rocked as well."

It was so cute when he brought that chair out! 'Cause you knew what was coming..

[trailmonkee]

8. he's a super sweet guy from what I have seen in interviews... nice family too

[Bonobo]

5. One of the greatest actors of his generation. nt

[susanna]

6. Absolutely agree. n/t

[HangOnKids]

9. My Left Foot Was Artistic Genius

DDL just gets it. One of the best ever.

[susanna]

32. It was!

He's just so absorbed in his characters. You don't see DDL; you see the character. I can't wait to see Lincoln. I really loved him in The Boxer, too. Just an amazing talent.

[Unknown Beatle]

23. DDL's acting is spellbinding.

I'm surprised he didn't win an academy for Gangs Of New York.

[kath]

24. He was also great in "In the Name of the Father"

AN awesome movie. Had to go and read the book (a true story) on which it was based.

[Bonobo]

26. And in "There will be Blood". nt

[jsmirman]

31. Indeed

[ProSense]

10. Love it.

[Lucinda]

13. Very cool! Thank you!

[Pbs1914]

15. Amazing

this is the same guy (accent and all on stage) that transformed into Bill the Butcher in Gangs of New York. Good God that's range.

[trailmonkee]

18. my beautiful laundrette vs. gangs of new York?

You would never think they were the same guy

[Cha]

16. The Chair has come full circle ..from

the diss at the rnc to the LA BAFTA Awards with Daniel Day-Lewis expressing profound gratitude that PBO was Re-Elected!

Thank you, trailmonkee and Daniel Day Lewis.. yours is the Chair I care to Remember

[Blue_In_AK]

19. I'm excited -- I get to attend a private screening of this movie tomorrow night

with my daughter who is an associate counsel with the Directors' Guild, complete with a question-and-answer session afterwards with Stephen Spielberg himself. La-de-dah.

[trailmonkee]

20. oh man

I am severely jealous... Hope you have a great time

[Blue_In_AK]

22. I'll probably be totally star-struck.

[SCALA13]

21. Way too funny, not gonna lie.

[corksean]

25. DDL lives not far from me

Lives in a place called Annamoe, can often be seen cycling around the town. Seems to favor the 'Hippie' look when not in the spotlight with an impressive beard and wears his hair long. Universally popular with the locals and gets involved in a lot of charities.

[jsmirman]

30. His reaction of relief over Obama's reelection seemed so genuine

and was a lot of fun to watch on that video...

[Berlum]

27. k and r

.

[Maven]

28. He. drank. Clint's. MILKSHAKE!

HE DRANK IT UP!

[jsmirman]

29. That was hilarious - that man is a genius in so many ways
