Ennio Morricone receiving an Honorary Oscar® 

Ennio doesn't need to speak english: he speaks the universal language of music.

Ennio Morricone didn’t die, he simply became music

Ennio Morricone did a favor to "The Oscars" for accepting this award ... not the other way around. R.I.P. the great Ennio Morricone.

Appreciate the humility and charity of Ennio in accepting this award. He was saving the Oscars from embarassment, he's way bigger than the Oscars.

The maestro Morricone deserves 10 oscars.

…he deserved a fucking oscar for every soundtrack he wrote..

In questa occasione non fu Ennio Morricone che ricevette l'Oscar ma fu l'Oscar che ebbe il privilegio di essere donato ad Ennio Morricone...

Before you was a myth, now you are a legend. R.I.P. Ennio.

This guy, is a God at music. He makes Hans Zimmer look like an amateur. I fucking love Ennio Morricone.

Ennio, Clint and Sergio. Gods of cinema.

The oscar should bow in front of such a magnificent composer. No one will ever top the skills of such a talented composer like this. I'm so lucky to be italian and to hear morricone speak my native language

The genuine love he feels for his wife Just melts my heart

i just love to see how much respect Clint Eastwood has for this great composer.

Notice the difference between the vanity of the 'VIPs' sitting there, and the humility of Morricone. Onore a te, maestro!

Con Te se ne va un Mito, una Leggenda, Imennsa, Incommensurabile, Inarrivabile. Con Sergio siete stati la mia gioventù, sieste stati i miei eroi, insieme a Clint, Gianmaria, Eli, Lee, Charles, Claudia,Henry, Jason, Giuliano, Fernando, Nieves, Rod, James, Robert, Tomas e tutti gli Altri. Adesso, tu e Sergio, dovrete impegnarVi ancor di più, perchè il Vostro set sarà il Paradiso. R.I.P. Ennio, forever and ever.

He is one of the greatest artist in the history of human mankind.

This guy deserves like 10 Oscars. wtf is wrong with Hollywood. Greetings from Germany.

Clint Eastwood automatically speaks Italian. Because Clint Eastwood.

How he didn’t receive an Oscar for “The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly” I will never know.

Talk about humility. He said without the directors, he wouldn't be where he is today. Without ENNIO, those directors wouldn't be where they are today.

Ennio Morricone had nothing to envy from Mozart, Beethoven, Chopin, Verdi etc.R.I.P Great Master.Thank you for the great legacy you left us.

Poteva stare zitto per tutto il video e si sarebbe capito tutto quanto solo guardando i suoi occhi. Che magnifico esempio d'arte vivente!!!

It's really sweet how he thanks his wife and that they still love each other at that age. Isn't that what we all wish for, to find that someone with whom your love never burns out.

Ennio Morricone doesn't need to speak English. He 's only speak the universal language of music. Such a wonderful moment.

Ecco gli Italiani che ci rendono orgogliosi.........grandissimo maestro.

“Credo che questo premio sia per me non un punto di arrivo ma un punto di partenza per migliorarmi al servizio del cinema e al servizio anche della mia personale estetica sulla musica applicata” BUON VIAGGIO MAESTRO :)

L' Eccellenza Italiana. Quella che regala emozioni all'intero pianeta, genuina, semplice e perfetta. Quella ancora capace di emozionare e di emozionarsi. Grazie Maestro. Grazie Ennio.

Farewell Maestro. Sit tibi terra levis. 1928-2020

a real gentleman and a real sensitive soul.Only the real genius is like that.

So genuinely moved and in tears as if he was a beginner totally taken aback by a prize absolutely unexpected. Someone should tell him that he's a genius: he seems strangely unaware of that.

R.I.P. Ennio Morricone. Magnificent composer.

R.i.P. Maestro Ennio Morricone, Roma November the 10th, Roma July the 6th.

Humbleness is the signature of a true and authentic artist and human being; like you, Maestro Ennio Morricone.

Ennio Morricone and Clint Eastwood.

"The most important thing is quality. I hope people will remember that my music had quality. Sometimes I am asked to write something simple, since the story of the film is simple. But I always try to create something unique."( Ennio Morricone)

Hundreds of years from now Morricone’s music will still be played; while others of our time will be lost in archives.

Notare la voce di Clint quando annuncia Morricone,emozione gioia e rispetto.

He spreads wisdom from his own body. What a giant.

Rest in Peace Ennio MORRICONE, your music will be forever listened to.

Ennio Morricone: Passionate, Genius, Creative, Humble, and Generous toward others. Hollywood is none of those qualities, except for a very few rare exceptions.

Once upon a time in the West, The Dollars trilogy, Once upon a time in America, The Mission all had incredible absolutely stellar scores. He deserves an Oscar for each of them. This man is a living legend. He is truly such a talent.

I'll love him forever.....for Cinema Paradiso, The untouchables, Malena and The mission. I have only ever said that to my husband. I've lit a candle for Mr Morricone..xxx

Una persona colta, sicura e non cafona, di un'umiltà e amore disarmanti. La tua anima vola in cielo lasciandoci, però, un pezzettino dello stesso con la tua musica meravigliosa. Grazie Ennio

“Per scorgere l'eternità in un granello di sabbia, e il paradiso in un fiore di campo, tieni l'infinito nel palmo della mano e l'eternità in un'ora.”. Addio Maestro!

Piango ogni volta che lo vedo, c'e tensione spirituale nella sua voce.

for me, perhaps the most prodigious and skilled composer of all time!! the motzart of film composition!! An extraordinary genius!

"Mission" soundtrack without an Oscar, will be for ever and evrerthe worst mistake in Accademy history.

0:11. And the whole world stands up today to greet this great artist... this great MAESTRO ! GRAZIE MAESTRO for all the emotions you have given us ! Your music will live forever in our thoughts... in our hearts ! ❤️🙏🏻🌹🇮🇹

Meriterebbe un Oscar per ogni nota che ha scritto....Ennio Morricone il piu' grande di tutti...Grazie Maestro !!!

Wow! He won an honorary Oscar first and this year for his music. Respect.

Rest In Peace to easily one of the most legendary composers ever. Don’t worry Ennio we will never forget your music especially from The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

I watched with tears rolling down my cheeks but, happiness in my heart. Ennio morricone was a humble genius. Thankyou for the music maestro, you are going to be missed.

Still unbelievable that Morricone only got a Honorary Oscar........he is by far,far out the best film composers in film history. On Ones a Upon a Time in The West It was Leone's desire to have the music available and played during filming. Leone had Morricone compose the score before shooting started and would play the music in the background for the actors on set. GENIUS

Ennio Morricone: umiltà e talento = il più grande artista italiano vivente.come ha già scritto qualcuno .

RIP Maestro. 😢 Proper Italian pride all over the world. 🌐 🇮🇹

Il Maestro rimarrà per sempre nella storia, così come i grandi (Mozart, Beethoven etc...) verrà ascoltato per altri mille anni o più. La sua musica è stata non solo innovativa, ma indimenticabile, e non diventerà classica, già lo è. Grazie Maestro, avrei tanto voluto incontrarla dal vivo, ma non ce l'ho fatta. Addio.

He did not need to speak English, he is the most respected person in film music world. He can bable on Italian as he wants, everone is delighted to see him on stage even they don't know what he is talking about. Great master

Such a sweet, humble, very likeable man! Well, he's Italian! That always helps...

The academy waited to long to honored the legend Ennio,In Italy Ennio Morricone is a treasure and an international icon,The academy should be honourd because mr.Morricone accepted the oscar

You came down to earth to give humanity a vision of what heaven is like, and that is an immense gift for us. Now you are back where you belonged and I can only say thank you for your music and for that light of hope you gave to people who needed, need and will need. Rest in peace, Maestro.

Don't look Berlusconi, Renzi, and all those who besmirch the greatness of our people. This is Italy, the real one!

An amazing man, who writes music from the soul.

I never knew Clint Eastwood was able to understand Italian! I'm so happy!!!!!!!!!

he deserved a lot more.

The man deserves, like maybe 15 Oscars..and he's standing today with maybe just 1, and an Honorary Oscar ?.. which I believe all actors get at the end of their career..Its like the end of the world ..everything totally wrong..

You will live forever in your beautiful music dear Ennio ❤️ Italy 🇮🇹 and the whole world 🌎 has lost our musical genius of our times, but we will always remember you and your music.

Plutôt émouvant merci a ces deux stars !

U will be missed maestro. Thank you

he's so sweet!

That moment when you think "this is a really great movie " is what Ennio did for film

Two of the greatest of all time on that stage

Watching this on the day he died, will never be forgotten, a great artiat, may he rest in peace

I was studying Italian at university when this happened, and the next day we asked our instructor "How did Clint Eastwood do?" She laughed and said his Italian was terrible, but now years later I watch this and see that the problem is more that he doesn't know how to translate on the spot. That's a bit of a differ skill, I think.

shame on the academy that this genius never won an award for a film score. epic corrupt industry.

Non c è mai stato nella storia un Oscar alla carriera più meritato ......E. M. Mito senza tempo

Ma un uomo che si emoziona così? Un grande come lui...Ti tocca il cuore

best music film composer ever, el mejor compositor de bandas sonoras de la historia

Umilta' pura fatta persona ....Un Maestro non solo nella musica sublime che fa ma anche Maestro di vita e di Umilta' ....non ho parole per definire questa vera Eccellenza Italiana...

the fact the Academy never awarded him makes his choice to accept it even greater

Over 500 compositions. Many of them are beautiful and unforgettable. Rest in Peace Maestro Morricone.

Saw him yesterday in concert in Brussels. 90 years old, it was his last tour. A mythical experience. The world of cinema owes him a lot and the western genre owes him everything.

In my opinion the Maestro deserved a lot more oscars for his composing. Listen to the soundtrack of many of his masterpieces like Once Upon A Time In The West/In America, and many more. Only because he was foreign. And everyone knows that the oscar committee doesn`t like foreign movie directors or composers. He waited much to long to receive the 'Golden' Statue.

My father and I watched "Two Mules for Sister Sarah" today, my father is an old man to be a father and since I was young my father introduced me to all the bang bang spaghetti films that he knows and love, and most of them Ennio was present with his fantastic soundtrack. Ennio is my favorite composer since I was 14, today I am 24 and my father 76, thank God for being my father's son. RIP Ennio the best composer of 20th/21st century and the favorite of my bloodline.

Its an honor to have the same name .. Graziie Maestro

wow, Ennio Morricone is right up there with John Williams, Miklos Rosza, Nino Rota and other great film composers and musical geniuses. Bravissimo Señor Morriconne.

Umiltà assoluta. Solo i Grandi ce l'hanno.

This is why Italians will always have something special: it is about the heart.

El más grande compositor de bandas sonoras de la historia del cine de todos los tiempos , Don Ennio Morricone, Tutto Enio el más grande … Gracias Don Ennio , por elevarme a sensaciones únicas , celestiales al escuchar tu música mágica , y gracias a Don Sergio Leone…. Un beso y un abrazo desde España de parte de un español.

I saw Morricone in a Concert in Arena di Verona some 4 years ago and it was absolutely amazing. Thank you Maestro.

Ennio Morricone managed to create a whirlwind of emotions in each of his compositions, his music makes us dream, give us strong emotions, cry, laugh, make us feel good. Grazie Mestro , for this we will be eternally grateful to you.

Carissimo Maestro....in my 55th I realized that there are four old pillars of the artistic truth: Coen, Morricone, Eastwood and Le Carre. It surely has something with my generation. But from today, only two are with us. Angels be with you, Maestro, tears are flowing down like endless rain...Grazie.

R.I.P. Ennio Morricone (1928-2020)

Even today, the MAESTRO Morricone is the biggest composer of soundtracks and music of the twentieth century, the current.......grande Maestro

Ennio Morricone is all John Williams would like to be.

Only a man full of emotions like he was, could produce such a beautiful music. RIP

Addio Ennio, fai buon viaggio e componi tanta bella musica ovunque tu sia. Ora sei lassù a far emozionare gli angeli, così come hai fatto qui con noi in tutti questi anni. Ci mancherai.

Once Upon a Time in the West and The Mission scores never won an oscar, ... What a joke, Academy! In Italian we call this "contentino".

Toute l'émotion qu'il témoigne à cet instant au bord des larmes , il a su la traduire en musique au fil de sa longue carrière, et quelle musique !... Le destin a voulu que ce soit Eastwood qui lui remet l'oscar en digne héritier de Sergio Leone. Par une nuit d'été le Maestro Ennio Morricone s'en est allé... au cinéma paradiso certainement... Dans un siècle on l'ecoutera toujours, comme du Mozart, c'est peut-être ça l'immortalité...

RIP Maestro The Greatest of all time

Persona straordinaria che ha regalato emozioni a non finire. Che Dio t'accolga in Paradiso Maestro !
