I wanted Glen Close to win, but I am absolutely won-over

by Olivia Coleman's acceptance speech. Oh my God! Someone get the transcript.

1. Feel the same way

Actress was so sweet though, even let Glen know she thought she was winning.

2. The British are so great at humility, self-deprecation and understatement.

And, since there has been so little of it during the Trump era, I just gobbled it up.

3. Yep, I'm sad that Glenn didn't win.

4. At least she received a Golden Globe.

5. Oh well...I'm just she'll have another chance next year..

6. She was great in Broadchurch

I look forward to her stint on The Crown. The speech was lovely.

15. I always think of Hot Fuzz when I see her...

7. I gotta say... as I watched "Peep Show" so many years back, never once

did I ever imagine or envision that "Sophie" would eventually win a best actress Oscar.

She certainly wasn't bad then, but turns out she's quite brilliant.

8. Until I saw The Wife, I was hoping Olivia Colman

would win. She, Emma Stone, and Rachel Weisz did fabulous ensemble work in The Favourite.

9. The essence of an acceptance speech by someone who never thought she would win...

10. I too felt so bad for Glenn, but love the winners speech....

11. I loved it too

Best part, near the beginning, she points at her Oscar and says 'this is hilarious'

So sweet and funny

12. She won the night for being funny, witty, cute, humble,

and sweet. I love her now!

13. Dang, I wanted Ms Close to win.

14. Coleman

was amazing in The Favorite. (I didn't see the Wife, but I heard Close was fantastic, as well.) But The Favorite was the first time I had seen Coleman in anything, and I was blown away.
