According to Eastwood, he had six men on Penn, but after first take, he had to put two more on him because he was fighting so hard. When his voice breaks at 1:58, I start to tear up because the emotion is so visceral. Well- deserved Oscar for his compelling performance. Incredible cast!

I agree. The general public doesn't give actors in general enough credit. People think it's an easy job for easy money. While yes you can get million for one project and 3-5/6 months of work but it's not just showing up and reciting lines. You're not a good actor just cause you say and remember your lines. The real testament to an actors skill is being able to draw out the viewers emotion and show them exactly what would have been said out loud but only with body language and realistic face expressions! Plus long hours and tons of traveling.

You cut it short...

I don't even have children and I felt his sadness and anguish through my laptop screen. His raw talent and emotion pierced my soul. I had never heard of this movie before today, but this one scene brought tear to my eyes and at that very moment...I knew that I had to watch this film.

Was just talking to my wife about how I thought this was one of the most emotional and powerful performances I've ever seen. Hats off to Penn

That was superb acting. Incredibly heartbreaking scene and it gets me every single time. I just couldn't imagine going through something like that.

This has to be one of the greatest scenes in acting history. The emotion watching this makes me feel is insane. As a man, having one of your children die, especially in this manner, is the worst thing that could possibly happen to you.

Kevin Bacon is a very underrated actor! I couldn’t believe that he wasn’t even nominated for “Murder In The First”! He was phenomenal in that movie!

What father would not be torn apart when he discovers that his child was killed and dumped like garbage.

Sean penn gave All he had in that scene. He is underappreciated I think in the actors world . He went from being a stoner kid in fast times to a man that could convey such emotion ..to honestly portray a man in anguish over the loss of his precious daughter

Just an academy

My dad (RIP) was never a big film enthusiast. A majority of the films that he would only watch were book adaptation films. This was one of those films that he watched. I remember him being so happy to see Sean Penn win the best actor award for this film. We used to watch the award ceremonies and I remember seeing this little snippet of Sean Penn screaming if his daughter was in that ditch. I didn’t understand what was really happening because I was only 13 at the time. I watch it now almost 20 years later, Sean Penn acted the hell out of this scene so well I felt my heart break.

Colbert interview w Sean's daughter brought me here... Definitely his best performance

No one will ever express the shock and the utter guttural pain when one first hears or realizes that someone whom you deeply love has been taken. I thought I would never, ever witness in any realm an artist in any medium express that depth of pain. Does any one know how his amazing work might have been drawn, apart from his innate genius as an actor?

I now have a 3 year old daughter, and this scene absolutely destroys me every time I see it.

Goosebumps! Pure emotion of a father

Some of the best acting I've ever seen. What a masterpiece of a movie this is

Sean Penn BEST actor ever! I adore this man❤️

Great scene. Love this youtube channel. With all of that said, tough decision to cut the scene short and omit that amazing aerial shot.

Lack of music makes this scene more tense

Watched this film again recently. What makes this scene even more heartbreaking is as tough and calloused as Jimmy (Sean Penn's characters) was, while he was in jail, the thing he feared the most... the only thing he couldn't handle and tormented him for years is that when he got out of jail, his daughter wouldn't love him because he was in jail. He admitted to Dave that he loved his oldest daughter, Katie, the most because she endured so much hardship when Jimmy got out of jail, after the death of Katie's mother.

Probably the most emotional scene I have ever watched.

I started the book by Lehane over a week ago. Eastwood really did great job recreating the scene

One of the most unintentionally funny scenes I've ever seen.

Being the father of a teenage girl this scene gets me every time, in particular when his voice breaks! And outstanding thoroughly deserved Oscar winning performance 👏🏻👏🏻

Defining scene. The love for a daughter by a loyal loving father. Everything good in this world for daughters & fathers everywhere who only ever had each other. Eh Jimmy. God sent you another marker. Come to collect.
