WATCH: The Speeches from the 2017 Oscar Winners

Undoubtedly, nothing will be able to top the reveal of Best Picture…and then the reveal of the actual Best Picture winner from this year’s Oscars but it doesn’t (or shouldn’t) overshadow the wins and speeches from Viola Davis to Mahershala Ali to Anousheh Ansari accepting the award for Foreign Language Film for Asghar Farhadi’s The Salesman.

Here are the speeches from the 2017 Oscar winners plus host Jimmy Kimmel’s opening monologue. All videos courtesy of the ABC Television Network. When official videos of Production Design, Original Song and Director pop up I’ll add them in.
