While accepting the Oscar for best actor, Phoenix turned the podium into a pulpit, launching into a impassioned plea to"give voice to the voiceless." He admonished humans for plundering the natural resources of the planet — mentioning the artificial impregnation of cows as an example."I feel conflicted, because so many of my fellow actors that are deserving don't have that same privilege," Phoenix said in accepting his acting award at the BAFTAs last weekend."I think that we send a very clear message to people of color that you're not welcome here.

"When he was 17, my brother wrote this lyric, he said, 'Run to the rescue with love, and peace will follow," Phoenix said.No surprise here either: Renée Zellweger triumphed in the best actress category for her spot-on portrayal of Judy Garland in"Judy."Renee Zellweger accepts the Oscar for Best Actress for "Judy" at the 92nd Academy Awards in Hollywood, Los Angeles, Calif., on Feb. 9, 2020.
