"I don't want to live forever unless you are by my side" is the most beautiful phrase ever said.

They entered that stage with such grace and dignity. RIP to this great couple.

3:50 is a real moment. We're lucky it was captured on film. A husband, who knows his beloved wife is dying, and he grabs her arm.... that is something.

I have driving Mrs Daisy on a vcr and I just love it every time I'm blessed to watch it

Class personified, both of them.

R.I.P. Mrs Tandy. You are greatly missed.

This was broadcast on June 12, 1994. Jessica Tandy had just turned 85 the week before and died only three months later. Hume lasted almost another nine years and died in 2003.

She was a phenomenal actress.

Both were greatest actor and funny. Thank you both you. All hard work though the years. God bless you both.

Even while watching this clip, any smart observer could hear and feel the love, admiration, and true sincerity of every person in that theatre given by a standing ovation which this couple has truly earned through the years. I hope their memory and legacy will live on and inspire all future actors.

What a touching moment! A well-deserved tribute to two extraordinary actors. God bless them.

This would turn out to be Jessica Tandy's final public appearance before she succumbed to cancer which she had been bravely battling for 4 years. Such a trooper she kept on working up until about the end.

Chris Johnson I greatly admired her, among other fine actresses of her generation (Julie Harris, Geraldine Page, Kim Stanley, to cite three). Have you seen her in SEPTEMBER AFFAIR (availabe in KZread)? She does such wonderful things in a relatively small role. I miss her and other actors of her caliber.

This is sooooo touching, thank you.

Though Cronyn won in a bittersweet victory.

She died later that year after struggling with cancer. She also developed glaucoma, hence the glasses. I am so grateful that she was able to get on that stage for an award, and the last time we would hear her beautiful voice.

RIP and Thank you ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Aww they’re all gone now. 😥😇

Class and dignity.

Lovely couple ❤

Beautiful 😍😍🎬🎬🎥🎥👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Icons! Love cocoon movies!

I was nuts bout him I loved her too

Awww sad they both gone great actors ❤❤ ❤ ❤

9 "dislikes"? I wonder what their reasoning was to "dislike" this video? Makes no sense to me.

Such a classic couple not brassy and show off s . Talent is classy 👏 loved these two ❤️ r.i.p 😢 x ✨️ today's couples could learn from these two x

They dont make em like that anymore!

When award shows were wonderful n class

Cronyn was a great Polonius opposite Richard Burton's 1964 Hamlet, proving you don't have to be British to be a great Shakespearean actor..:) (It was on youtube the last time i looked)

She also passed away that year. RIP Jessica

Its a sad commentary that the only clip shown at a lifetime acheivement award for stage work, was from a blockbuster Hollywood film. They worked together in Broadway productions of Foxfire ( later filmed as a movie) The Gin Game ( later televised by Showtime) The Honeys, The Petition, Delicate Balance, In Two Keys,and the Four-poster. Tandy earned 5 Tony nominations including The Rose and the Petition and won 3 for Streetcar in '47, Gin Game in '77, and Foxfire in '82 as well as 2 Drama Desk Awards and an Obie. Cronyn was nominated for 5 Tonys ( Big Fish..., Delicate Balance, Gin Game, The Petition) winning the award in '64 for Hamlet.

Picture quality so poor that my device can't keep it from turning black screen evey 10 seconds 😕

Though they richly deserved the award, it was not the first life acheivement Tony. Lunt and Fontanne were awarded in 1970.

So sad that Jessica was already suffering terribly from the cancer that would take her life. She was one of a kind. The likes of her will never be seen again on Broadway, or the movies for that matter ("Driving Miss Daisy")

Who is the lady presenting this award her voice is so recognizable but I forgot who she is ?

Class....... What ever happened to it.

That didn't took him long, did he even loved her? How can someone remarry within a year of your spouses death? Especially when you spent 50+ years together

True love is sadly rare but they had it

😭

She knew she didn't have far to go. Painfully thin, the comment of her having the pleasure of being upon a stage again exemplified she would not be returning there again. How sad, she didn't win her best actress Oscar till 1990 and in 4 years, she would be gone.

Hollywood needs people like that again not all these blowhards with a political rant every time there on tv

She was dying from cancer at that point. She died that year.

I didn't realize until I saw the date of this video of 1994 this is when Jessica Tandy was battling cancer of her ovaries and she passed away in September 1994 so in this video you can see that she lost a little weight and her determination to walk up on that stage while she's feeling ill I can't imagine what she felt on that stage of happiness but battling her sickness at the same time. For my understanding her heritage that she was a Jew but for the ones that put their faith in Jesus Christ and faith alone has hope within Jesus Christ for their salvation I must say this because I will not be ashamed of the Gospel or my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ because as a Christian a child of God I must have a duty to let everyone know the good news of the Gospel through Jesus Christ to never judge God through Jesus Christ when you don't know who he is or don't know his word because we look around upon this world there's so much evidence that the Lord exists when you look at human DNA and much more and the Lord written in our hearts what is right and wrong and what is good and evil to love our neighbor as ourselves and much more but I know the Lord has many ways to get through people. And I pray that more people get saved every day and more people will know who God is the one and only true God through Jesus Christ God and flesh through his holy spirit that gives us strength and comfort and gives life to the resurrection eternal in heaven.
