Gena Rowlands' Honorary Oscar is richly deserved. At the risk of stating the obvious, these Oscars should be awarded during the Oscar ceremony in February, rather than being relegated to a presentation that is seen by a small group on line. Her Bette Davis story is priceless; her work with her late husband John Cassavetes is timeless.

No she wasn't robbed. Bursty deserved her Oscar. In fact I don't know how Rowlands was worthy of an Honorary Oscar, something politics here. And I hardly remember A Woman Under The influence, she's played this part before and since.

She truly deserved this award. Beautiful person inside and out.

Her and Bette Davis were a great pairing in Strangers!👏👍😊

She was such a bad ass in Gloria. One of the toughest women characters in movies.

Gena was always such a beautiful and classy actress - and was from my hometown of Madison, Wisconsin! I’m so glad that she paid homage to her late husband, John Cassavetes, who passed away in 1989 after 35 years of marriage. They were a dynamic couple.

@marias7599

Wow! I had no idea she was from Wisconsin.

The Bette story is charming but it reminds us, Bette Davis is the legend she is because she always cared what ended up on the silver screen - she was attentive and brave enough to ensure things were right. She was really a pioneer for every actress who cares about their own work.

That Bette Davis story was so funny. Can't stop laughing. Really.

Is this the best acceptance speech of all time? It's a captivating performance. But it's Gena Rowlands.

Gena is a outstanding actress. I love her in Gloria. This is a long overdue award for her. I love her voice, it commands attention and says power.

our greatest living actress.

Gena is one of the most underrated talents of Hollywood. I am delighted to see how humble she is here, so proud and happy to receive an Oscar for the whole of the work in American cinema. I've never seen her complaining about losing her Oscar for A Woman under the Influence, which I consider to be her acting masterpiece, for Ellen Burstyn. She was an admirable human being, never bothered to make fame, but she was worried about building characters with quality. Congratulations, dear Gena, this Oscar is the most deserved by you. John & Gena: the perfect due! It’s impossible to see a movie by Cassavetes, Gena acting and not to be enchanted by what you’re seen on screen. Love her in Opening Night, Love Streams, Faces, A Woman under the Influence, Gloria, minnie and moskowitz, Strangers, Once Around.

Gloria is one of my favorite movies especially because it portrays a strong compassionate woman ! She should have received an Oscar 40 years ago and how about a lifetime achievement award now !

a true artist, a real genius, we are all better for what she has shared with her amazing talent and great heart...

She is one of the coolest people on planet earth, without a doubt ~ and such a colorful, artistic life, committed to small projects rather than large. What a great gift she has given to so many artists and viewers of her work. We are so very lucky to have her captured on film in such excellent performances ~ she never disappointed, NEVER. I am very grateful that I was first introduced to her with her performance in Gloria. I was in high school when Gloria came out. In retrospect, that particular film truly impacted what films interested me from that point on. Remarkable, she was........ Where has the Academy been, she should have won that Oscar for Gloria and so many other films ~ Another Woman..... Next, Academy recognize JOHN CASSAVETES ~

What a treasure this woman.

I love Gena Rowlands,Gloria is still after 40 years after seeing it for the first time one of my favorite movies of all time.

She deserved this a long, long time ago. Magnificent actor. One of the best, ever

Best actress of all time for me I could listen to her all day.

I just saw Gloria again after about 20 years was the last time I saw it- and I still enjoyed it tremendously--you are a wonderful actress and so deserving of this award

She is amazing!!

elegant & beautiful woman.....and a true artist .....

Great actress. She is a legend.

Love Gena Rowlands, she's a fantastic actress. I'll bet she has some great stories to tell.

God, how I love this woman. She is such a convincing actress who has portrayed roles which have mirrored aspects of my life. I love you, Gena Rowlands!

How wonderful is this! watching Strangers brought me here, Such a gem too!

Absolutely magnificent speech. Unique and stunning woman, much admired.

What a terrific actress Geena was! Superb.

lovely lady - so warm and humorous and brilliant-

SUPREME timing on that Bette Davis anecdote. Love it.

Watched Strangers again the other day. 2 of my favorite actors together.

The very first time I saw Gena Rowland in a movie I must have been 9 or 10 years old and that movie was Gloria I believe in 1980. I was an instant fan & admirer of her craft at an early age. When I saw her earlier work I got to witness not only a great actress but a true beauty that looked so stunning on the big screen. Gena was truly created to be an actress I truly believe that. Her beauty and toughness were two combinations that looked so perfect on her. Thank You Mrs Rowland for showing a kid from Brooklyn what a gifted true actress really looks like and what a pleasure it was. Love You!!!💕🥰💕

incredible actress. loved her since woman under the influence.

She should’ve won one for so many of her performances ❤this is so deserved!

One of my top 10 movies was Gloria . geena amazing actress

One of our great actress. From a woman under the influence to Gloria and hysterical blindness. Gena is one of a kind. Nobody has that strength in one look.

I loved watching you in Gloria. You were fantastic!!!!!!!❤

Gena is the best actress of all time.

Just watched Ms. Rowlands in an episode of "Monk." Delightful and moving performance. What a career!

Amazing, wonderful, Actress!!!

Gena’s performance in A Woman Under The Influence just may be the greatest performance by an actor ever captured on film.

Beautiful Lady… Excellent actress… Just loved her… And I love her more because she reminds of my mother. Thank you beautiful Lady. ♥️🇮🇹🇬🇧🌹

That Bette Davis story relates to a television movie they made at the end of the 1970's. Its striking the number of female actors who cite Gena Rowlands performance in A WOMAN UNDER THE INFLUENCE as one of the reasons they became actors.

What an actress. I loved her in "Opening Night," "Another Woman," and a TV movie she did with Jane Alexander called "A Question of Love." Her work in these movies was so great, and so inspiring and influential to myself as an aspiring actor at one time. I can't believe she wasn't nominated for an Academy Award--or won even--for "Opening Night"--a tour de force, and landmark performance. (Though the five nominees that made the cut that year were admittedly great, too).

I was in jr. high when "A Question of Love" aired. I had known for some time I was gay. And this film made it okay as I was watching it with my conservative father who actually appreciated it because Gena was starring.

my first introduction to Gena was when she appeared on the tv show peyton place back in the 60's. i thought she was marvelous as Adrienne van Lydon . from then on i was hooked and i followed her career and saw many of her outstanding performances . my all time favorites are Gloria and A Woman Under The Influence --- which by the way she was jipped of the Oscar. Finally she has one.!!!

One of my favourite actresses of all time. I am in love with her and her late husband John Cassavetes and their work. The man next to her (toward the end) is one of their three children, Nick Cassavetes.

"You'r no spring chicken Either". She was amazing, humbled and elegant lady.

Love her!!

GLORIA!

One of my all time FAVORITE actors. She was ROBBED in 1974 but I’m THRILLED she received this award. So well deserved and how wonderful she also paid tribute to her husband, the great John C. 😊

I absolutely love her so much !!!!

The legendary Ms. Gena Rowlands should have won in the movie "Woman Under The Influence"

Gena and John should had won MANY TIMES and I hope her son Nick get's what he deserves during his lifetime...I love him so much....I can understand how Gena loved and misses John...that statue she holds...tall and shiny is like her husband was and her son IS.....Nick is incredible....look at him......

I've seen "Strangers - the Story of a Mother and Daughter"; it's available online. Great film! Amazing performances! Davis won an Emmy for her acting ability, but Gena was just as extraordinary as Bette was! Legends...they threw away the mold!

So many movies but to me she will always be Gloria 🌹❤️

GREAT Bette Davis story! I can see Ms. Davis saying those things. Can't you?

Her performance in Woman Under the Influence is out of this world. Easily top 5 performances of all time...ALL TIME!
