JASON ROBARDS:
[Holds the Oscar statuette by the head] I'm holding that right? It's beautiful. Thank you very much for the honor of the nomination and also the honor of this award. And I just want to say that I take this in honor for my producer Robert Redford, and my great fellow actor, who showed such integrity, honesty and perseverance in this project. And in honor of Alan Pakula, our director, and also Ben Bradlee for being alive so that he would let me come out and play with him. Thank you very much.
