"You don't beat your heroes, man, you listen to them." Wise words, my friend. Al Pacino is a legend!
-
Foxx is like a quadruple threat. Can sing, act, do comedy and he can do it all live.
-
Al Pacino's smile is everything
-
"...And then I won an Oscar."

"You don't beat your heroes, you listen to them" - Jamie Fox
-
Jamie is a phenomenal story teller.
-
That's how it's done, Jamie Foxx really delivered a perfect speech. I especially loved the ending with that line " When God made you, he took his time, then he took a 30 min break, and he said that was a good one" WOW goosebumbs right there.
-
awesome compliment!!! when God made you, He took his time...then took a 30 minute break.... and He said "that was a good one" awesome compliment!!!
-
Both Pacino and Foxx are natural born story tellers, a talent that requires exquisite sensory perception, attention to and fascination with detail, and a refusal to "cut to the chase." Admire them both immensely.
-
He starts with the joke and finishes with serious respectable complements!
-
This is how you pay respect to your heroes. Fucking legends, both of them.
-
3:04 I love Al's face expression when Jamie says "you had no ego at all" and how he's serious and how he loves to hear it
-
Now thats how you give compliments. Jamie and Jim carrey are absolute legends at the AFI. They show their own skills but also give respect to the guest of honor!
-
Jamie Foxx's tribute to Al Pacino, was the best of the entire night. Hands down, and the only one to come close to Jaime Foxx, was the late Robin Williams. But in my humble opinion, Jaime Foxx's took the prize.
-
3:05, when Al Pacino moves back because he was so touched was moving. He really strives to be a kind human; you can tell that compliment meant the most to him.
-
They don't make actors like Pacino anymore ....
-
I took that DNA and won a Oscar
-
"When God made you, He took his time, then He took a 30 minute break, and he said: 'That was a good one!'" amazing Speech
-
that was a speech to learn from. what a talented man you are ..
