Man, Billy is friends with the whole damn Hollywood, what an amazing guy!
I love the fact that Martin Scorsese is seated right next to Robert de Niro. So much history.

What's legit is one day Leo Dicaprio will be getting this same award... and I bet if he's still alive, Marty will be in that same damn seat. Guys a fucking legend, and knows how to make other legends.

Amazes me how Joe Pesci, despite being in Goodfellas and Raging Bull, kickass movies, still reflects that aura of respect for De Niro. Very nice show, indeed...

his amount of great parts over all the years is amazing ... think taxi driver , godfather , raging bull , deerhunter , cape fear , midnight run , meet the parents .. he can do it all from heavy drama to comedy ... id watch him painting a wall
Once every 100 years a classy actor rises like a phoenix. That is Robert De Niro.

Billy Crystal is an actor, comedian, and awards/Oscars presenter. Fixed.
You can tell they probably dragged him kicking and screaming to this thing. In spite of his celebrity, De Niro's not a public man - in the sense that he doesn't like to display his private feelings in a public arena - uncomfortable with being feted, and obviously torn here between wanting to run out the door and staying to be moved by these loving tributes. A very classy man who doesn't like bullshit.

Cant believe it's 14 years since I first watched it..great actors I grew up watching.
"Hollywood loves to suck its own dick" as someone recently said spot on. But still how I loved to be among the bunch and make some difference from the inside I think Mr. De Niro and Scorsese in all their geniuses have shown how impossible the feat is.
"just for the simple reason that I talk" and Matin is like "yeah, he's right"
2019 still here
That was quite the range of emotions on Bob's part.
that commercial is very cute
Robert de Niro is "the cameleon". One of the best and most versatile actors ever. After Marlon Brando, in my opinion, he is nos successor

seen the first video for de niro's AFI award and just knew AFI would have more treats in store for us, thank you thank you, keep it coming....
Man, time go's by fast. I remember 25-30 yrs ago when the last of the Bob Hope/Golden Age of Hollywood actors were on their way out, and bam now you have De Niro Michael Douglas (Amazing Kirk Is Still Around At 102), Pacino and others pushing 80, while guy's like Clint, Hackman, and Sean Connery are pushing 90. There's some great younger actors like Tom Hardy, and Leonardo D, but these are the last of the method actors, many who learned or based their schtick off of Brando.
That last text: "You, you...." kills!
Great ending. The car comercial is something people forgot. Bobby D was getting started.
DE’NIRO THE GREATEST OF ALL TIMES. 🍀♥️🇮🇪
ive been watching all of these videos abt al and robert for like 2 hours
I love what bill says “ why are giving him this award “ !
