"If you ever become a director or writer, please find a good part for your old man. He did all right!". What a charismatic person!

One of the most deserved Oscars ever.

Huston was such a positive force in that film.  His glee seemed so genuine and infectious to the audience.

One of the most deserved wins in this category indeed

I remember the first time I saw Walter Huston as the Reverend Davidson in "Rain". I couldn't believe it was the same man who played Howard in "The Treasure of the Sierra Madre". I still find it hard to believe. Surely only a great actor can achieve that.

Huston was the Daniel Day Lewis of his era. No character actor could touch this man.

One of the most deserved Oscars ever

"He did alrighttt" 😊

Really cool that 3 generations of the Huston family won an Academy Award. Walter for his supporting role in this, his son John winning Director & Screenplay for the same film. Then John's daughter Anjelica winning Supporting Actress for Prizzi's Honor.

One of the best performance in a Western..
Rightfully deserved..

Walter Huston was a great, versatile actor, who made many memorable films. His performance as Howard, the grey whiskered old gold prospector, was just brilliant. He stole every scene! His body language and his facial expressions were a joy to watch.

This picture and Dodsworth were two of the finest pictures ever produced. Walter Huston’s brilliant performances in both was the reason for their success.

oh that wonderful humility! what a class act that man was. and one hell of an actor.

I wanted him to do his prospector's dance!

If you knew the erudite, gentle and serious actor Walter Huston was, you will understand what a sheer CREATION his role was in Treasure.   he was previously nominated for his wonderful portrayal in Dodsworth. He is unrecognizable from this role.

Boy, was Mr. Huston up against some great competition!

The grizzled old prospector is one of the familiar cliches of American cinema.  Mr Huston took the opportunity, with the acknowledged help of his gifted son, to transform a stereotype into what is very likely the most memorable winner in the history of the supporting actor category.  This great actor's verbal choices and his physicality are a lesson in psychological ownership and spontaneity.  TTOTSM is unimaginable without him.  And the speech is a classic in its own right!

Walter Huston has great acting in The Treasure of the Sierra Madre.

Modest, simple stage. Quick 10 second speech, in and out. I wouldn't ever watch the Oscars but if I did I'd want them to be like this.

Really topped off his distinguished career. A brilliant performance  and a memorable acceptance speech too.
