Acceptance Oscar's Speeches 2020

Everybody knew Joaquin Phoenix and Brad Pitt would get statuettes in the 2020 Oscar Academy Award night. Both actors are great performers indeed so they deserved to get their awards and they could also make their acceptance speeches in front of that audience full of celebrities. Every year Hollywood and International stars look forward to participating in this show. Spectators from all over the world also try to watch all the flicks which get awards given by the Academy. However, stars' speeches have been changing a lot! 

Joaquin Phoenix's words were really passionate ( you can read his full speech clicking on the link below Macmillan dictionary)and he admitted in front of the crowd: "I've been a scoundrel all my life. I've been selfish, cruel and hard to work with, and I'm grateful that so many of you in this room have given me a second chance." Well, maybe that was why he could perform his supervillain role so well in the flick Joker.
