Well deserved award for Mr Bacon. One of the most emotionally powerful movies out there & and a story every American should know about.

I've done that military honor escort duty when I volunteered to escort my lifelong best friend home for the final time. He was killed in Vietnam, 1967. The "Taking Chance" movie is quite accurate.

"Let's take care of each other. Peace." Kevin Bacon is the man.

and Kevin deserved it.. such an underrated actor

@@Bruce-1956 Thank you so much for saying that.

As a retired Marine that had to do caco's . He did an amazing job portraying a body escort bringing a a fallen Marine home. Semper fidelis and God bless you.

Kevin and Kyra's relationship is so heart warming. They're always so happy and supportive of one another.

There was no competition. Kevin earned this award for his performance.

I just watched the movie! What a beautiful and very touching performance from one of the most underrated actors of our times! I’ve always loved Kevin! The award was so very well deserved! Brilliant man!!👏🏻👏🏻💖

He was amazing in the movie. He deserved to win!!!

Amazing performance. I saw it a few years ago, but it’s one of those stories that stay with you. Well deserved.

I’ve just found this film this few days, and I watched it the other night, as a veteran of the British army. I was moved by it all

The fact that he was never nominated for "The Woodsman" pisses me off to no end. He was utterly brilliant in that film.

David Gonzales I so agree. He can do more acting with just his eyes than most actors can with a whole script.

The absolute BEST movie Kevin EVER made or was part of. I never saluted anyone,until I watched this movie.

Thank you for taking care of our brothers! SEMPER Fi! You deserve that award!!

Did anyone else find it odd or disappointing that Bacon thanked all those people - but never even mentioned the men and women that have made the ultimate sacrifice? And how about all of the amazing people that work endlessly to give honor and dignity to the fallen? Bacon certainly deserved the award - but I was just really disappointed that he didn't even mention the true heroes that made it all possible.

He's just an actor (I mean that in a derogatory way) playing a part, his speech says it all. He was playing a roll, deep down it means very little to him/hollywood elites.

@ace1usmc, the story was about Lt Colonel Stroble and his experience in bringing Chance Phelps being taken home for the final time. I've done that duty and the toughest duty that I ever did during my 10 years of US Army Special Forces medevac military service.

That was an excellent role and an excellent story. Hats off to Kevin Bacon.

Everybody is somebody, sir. While the US is not perfect, as a Yank who is longlived, I am always proud to be and say "I'm an American ". This movie was extremely well done, and I cried like a baby throughout. I believe Americans are the most generous, kindest folks on the planet. Our ancestors were brave and extremely hard working - we can't match them ' but when the world goes crazy - who do they come to ? Need I say more ? Thanks for your comments - we love Britain, too.

My favorite Kevin Bacon movie. Always tear up when I see it!

ooo look at kyra she was so excited for her man. i love that couple :)

Very underrated actor who deserves more Love

Good movie..... very emotional to watch Thanks for the real marine officer who escorted chance home

Kevin has been amazing since 1980s!!

to BigSwampDangle Kevin Bacon does not get drunk before any work or events like this. Couldn't reply there for some reason. Kevin certainly did deserve the award. He is a great actor.

Great job Kevin !!!!

WOW!!!! Congratulations My Kevin Lots of Love all the best

Well deserved. So much of what Kevin Bacon did in the movie was to react - quietly but with great emotion behind it.

Hollywood finally gets something right.

Kevin Bacon is one of the finest actors ever to be on the silver screen.

One of the greatest actors to have never won an Oscar.

A truly great performance and movie.

Excellent movie

Such an underrated actor 🙌🏻

I love Kevin and his wife what beautiful people

That was a really great and moving film. Mr. Baconwaa outstanding, as were the other actors.

Great to hear

One of the best honor movie ever ,Thank you

great movie ever.

How proud was Kiera Sedgwick of her hubby.....WOW. What a humble man....

I love you Kevin from 1984 movie Footlose.

I have only seen segments. Plan to see it ALONE soon. Buried my dad, NAVY VET JULY 2021. Taps almost broke me

Great movie

Kevin Bacon was the best possible choice to portray Lt Col Michael Strobl.

I grinned when he removed his glasses! Ren McCormack once again! Well done Kevin :D

kevin bacon rocks!

no just overwhelmed. i think i would be too

es un actorazo, los golden globes le quedan corto

And, in just a few years, Kyra would win an Emmy. What an eventful year 2010 was for that family!

dress is beautiful。

If you can watch taking chance and not cry , I don't know anyone that can't

Casal mais lindo de Hollywood! Bacon x Kyra!

@Kruezoraxe Actually, the guy that the character in Lie to Me is based on (Paul Ekman) has taught the FBI and Secret Service many of the techniques which they now use. He's been doing this research for several decades. The problem is people like the other person to whom you're responding watching one episode of the show and trying to apply the techniques.

I watched The River Wild in Geology class XD.

Thank you Mr. Bacon. I have four sons and sons in law, all Army. Two were seriously wounded. I can watch a few minutes of Taking Chance but not the whole movie. It is too difficult to get through. I do hope Obama will watch it. Perhaps, just perhaps he will leave the moms and dads and little ones of Syria alone. Jarhead66 RVN 67-68-69

Semper Fi.

I watch this movie every Memorial Day weekend. It’s not National Barbecue.

He Earned IT!!

As slim as he was back in 2010 when he won this award, I wonder if Kevin was still doing all the dance moves he made famous in Footloose.

at 0:10 everyone was thinking "WHO THE HELL ARE THESE STARLETS?"

How about thanking the people that paid the ultimate price and were NOT acting!

Aww.. I feel bad for him because he looks nervous. I’m sure it would be difficult to have to speak in front of your peers like that. Glad he won.

Kevin hates public speaking so he's get nervous.

I heard Kevin didn't want to do the film at the time. But, he did a great job.

@JustAintthatWay Coolest

@otacon23 Or he was just really nervous. The cool thing about lie to me is that it's right in the name. They're lying to you about the ability to detect lies. It's as realistic as CSI if not worse. There are only two groups of people who are good at lie detection...Prison inmates and Secret Service agents. Those are the only groups who have been able to detect lies under test conditions and have done better than chance. Even the polygraph is 80% and a smart person can fool it in a heartbeat.

still hot!

Now, about Johnny Depps oscar..

When award shows weren’t shit.

As a Republican - Hollywood has no doubt Now banned him! 😵‍💫

He looked a helluva lot better with a haircuts

Not a traditional military film aka “war movie.” This was based on the real life experience of Marine LTC Michael Strobl who escorted the remains of PFC (posthumous promotion to LCPL) Chance Phelps to his hometown of Dubois WY for burial. It is very respectful of a Marine who made the ultimate sacrifice.

@Iker122 HAHA he seems majorly pissed about not being in the spider man !! LOL

Of all the people he thanked he did not thank the US Military and the men and women who fight, die and, sometimes worse, come home maimed for life. I hate war though I recognize some are necessary to protect our freedom and freedom of the world. I just don't think the ones we are fighting now are necessary and worth the, mostly unknown, price we are paying. Shame Kevin for forgetting these brave men and women.
