Day-Lewis lives 20 minutes from me in Wicklow Ireland. That’s the only achievement in my life

Daniel Day-Lewis has only done 11 feature-length films as a lead actor in his entire career, and has been nominated in the Best Actor category for 6 of them, with 3 wins. This man is truly incredible.

"My fellow nominees, my equals, my betters."

My man Daniel is certainly humble.

Not sure when anyone will read this, but it is February 2023. I was walking through Washington Square Park, here in New York City, and there, sitting alone, reading a book, looking as normal as could be, was none other than Daniel Day-Lewis. Absolutely incredible to walk by him and see him just blending in looking like a normal guy in the park. This legend. I am rarely shocked at seeing celebrities in person. But seeing Daniel Day-Lewis, sitting on a park bench, reading a book… That’s a moment I won’t forget.

Joaquin Phoenix be like “aww shit, here we go again”

[quincyjohns]

This man talks as if he doesn’t actually know he’s the greatest actor of all time.

Daniel Day-Lewis and Meryl Streep together in a film would have been a gift to all film lovers.

Bro! The way his wife looks at him as he rises to go accept his Oscar. She loves him so much and is so proud of him

[rodbruce]

Every Best Actor Oscar acceptance speech till the end of time should start with the sentence “I’d like to thank Daniel Day Lewis for not making a film this year”

[divyenduraina]

Joaquin's reaction to his name call was hilarious 😂😂😂

[MarinaAndTheDevil]

We need to talk about how quickly Meryl revealed the winner 😭

[GoddyofWar]

That embrace between Lewis and Streep is something to behold. The amount of respect on display between two of the all time greats.

[albertcozar]

Daniel gets nominated.
All other nominated actors: Ah shit, here we go again

[delgado]

Joaquin Phoenix is like WTF i'm doing here !? 1:07

[who]

The 2013 Oscars definitely had one of the best lineup of nominees for every category.
I mean Daniel Day-Lewis, Hugh Jackman, Joaquin Phoenix, and Denzel... not a lineup we would see nowdays

Daniel Day Lewis is a unique and rare talent. Not only does he almost physically embody his characters, but he makes you believe he is that person. There are many incredible actors out there, Hanks, De Niro, Pitt, DiCaprio, Freeman...but none of them have ever mesmerised me so much on screen, that you think he's not acting. Look at just a small section of hi incredible versatility.
The Bounty
Sunday Bloody Sunday
My Left Foot
A Room With A View

If you're going up against Daniel Day Lewis, well, I guess there's always next year.

[theangryconstitutionalist]

Daniel Day-Lewis is the ONLY Oscar recipient who can talk as long as he wants and they will NEVER turn the music on him. You don't disrespect the World's greatest actor.

Legend. 3 oscars in 3 generations. There will never be another.

[azpowerhitter]

Daniel day Lewis in my opinion is far above every actor in existence. He is truly phenomenal.
