Viewers lauded him as a true gentleman for his sincere words, particularly as he concluded with a nod to his Irish heritage, saying, "Go raibh míle maith agaibh," meaning "a thousand thank yous."
Reactions poured in following Murphy's Oscar win, with one individual expressing congratulations and pride for his achievement.
Another commenter echoed the sentiment of pride and admiration for his win, particularly emphasizing his modesty and inclusivity in his speech.
A third person lauded Murphy's win as well-deserved and praised his heartfelt acceptance speech.
