After you’ve seen all the films and the votes are all counted, the most entertaining parts of the actual Academy Awards are the speeches. With limited time, a global audience, and a million people to thank, actors and actresses step out of the safety net of carefully crafted lines to speak their own words, which can be a delightful extension of their on-screen personas, or a completely cheesy and wildly uncomfortable mess.
Check out this gallery to see the best and worst acceptance speeches in Oscars history.
