Da'Vine Joy Randolph is still basking in the glory of the aftermath of her Oscar win for best supporting actress in "The Holdovers" on Sunday at the 96th annual Academy Awards.
Less than 24 hours after her speech captivated millions worldwide, Randolph told "CBS Mornings" co-host Gayle King that her win signified a "moment of completion," and described a special presentation by past winners, including her long-time friend Lupita Nyong'o, as "soul-stirring."
During the ceremony, Nyong'o said Randolph's performance "is tribute to those who have helped others heal in spite of their own pain. It's also a tribute to your grandmother, whose glasses you wore in the film. What an honor to see the world through her eyes and yours." Randolph, said she was stunned by Nyong'o's speech about her.
