Speaking for Todd-AO and all the fellows that worked with me – Bud Grenzbach, Bob Glass, Weldon Brown, Pat Sullivan – I'd like to on behalf of all these people thank the editors, Warner Bros. Pictures, and most of all Bill Friedkin, a man who made it all go together. Thank you all very much.

Thanks to Billy for getting us through the movie; to my crew, Pat Suraci and David Moshlak; and to all the people here and in New York who made this possible. Thank you.
