TIMOTHY HUTTON:
Thank you all very much. This is the first award and I'm very nervous about what to say here. I'd like to thank everybody involved with "Ordinary People." The cast: Mary, thank you; Judd, thank you; Donald, thank you; Liz McGovern, thank you. And I'd like to thank Judith Guest and I'd like to thank Alvin Sargent and Jeff Kanew. But most of all I'd really like to thank a wonderful director, Robert Redford. I love ya. And finally I'd like to thank my father. I wish he was here. Thank you all very much.
