The media is highlighting Pine’s emotional response ahead of the response of any of the actual stars from the movie the song was in. “It moved many audience members to tears, including actor Chris Pine,” reported Heavy.com declining to name anyone other than Pine. “Why was Chris Pine crying at the Oscars?” a USA Today headline asked.
