The Gorbachev joke was really funny. I was born in '92 and glad to find clips like this.

The best most unique and stimulating part of the Oscars? Mr Crystal. He defines iconic.

Billy Crystal is handsome, sharp, funny, quick and doesn’t offend! Bring him back. Please. One more time!

When he referenced the berlin wall and nelson mandela, I felt like a tiny child because that was all stuff I only heard or read about in my history books....

Thumbs up if you think he should host at least 1 more time!

And there is the great Jessica Tandy is full view. I miss her greatly. She is one of the greatest movie actress of our time. They don't make it like that anymore. R.I.P., Miss. Tandy.

Man, he was just amazing. He had the perfect ability to tell a mix of inside-industry jabs and more general audience jokes. And almost all of them got huge laughs. His last few hosting stints were not the best but it's ok because he had some truly classic turns in the 90s.

This was the first of 9 Oscar telecasts Billy Crystal would host, second to the late Bob Hope, who hosted 22 telecasts.

Honey I shrunk the party lmao

I love that Billy does a parody of the awful Snow White number just to make fun of that idea... and it ends up basically becoming his signature every time he hosts the show

4:06, Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman, who were married at the time and had two adopted children!

Finally saw the actual movie My Left Foot, in Highschool. It was soooo inspiring. Like, if you wanna do art or some kinda hobby but suck at first, think of this dude, who used his friggin TOES to paint! You gotta try and not give up!

The Oscars are cringe, but Billy Crystal is funny.

A time when celebrities in Hollywood still had their mystique. Social media was not around and the Berlin wall came down. Who would have thought that in 2019 , celebrities would have lost all mystery and social media would consume many poor souls and we would be in favor of a huge wall ourselves ?

Billy always knew how to tease without insulting because he loved and respected his fellow actors. Today's presenters don't have that orientation and often make embarrassing remarks that are somewhat humiliating to the poor victim who sits cringing in their seat.
