Chris Evans has always been the best Chris [Editor's note: debatable], but his stellar behavior at the 91st Academy Awards further cements his status as the goodest boy named Christopher in Hollywood.

Evans' fortuitous seat in the front row of the show and directly next to Best Supporting Actress winner Regina King made it easy for him to physically support her as she ascended the stairs to accept her award.

Moment later, he presented the award for Best Production Design to Hannah Beachler, who won for designing Black Panther. When her name was called, he fist-pumped in true Bostonian fashion to celebrate her win.

Recall at the 2015 People's Choice Awards, it was Chris Evans who helped Betty White up the stairs when she won the Favorite TV Icons award.

It was perhaps in that moment when he realized his calling, to help women in impossibly high heels make their way up the stairs as the accept their well-deserved accolades.
