Jacob Tremblay stole the show at the tender age of just nine at the Critics' Choice Awards yesterday. I was close to tears..

The Canadian rising star had the audience in awe with the sweetest acceptance speech of the night while picking up Best Young Actor for his role in the drama Room.

After praising his fellow nominees with a poise far beyond his years, he revealed he was going to put his new award in pride of place in his bedroom - right next to his treasured Millennium Falcon.

'This is super cool,' Jacob said as he held onto his award and stepped onto a box so he could speak into the microphone.

'It's the best day of my life,' he added.
