JESSICA LANGE:
Ooh, it says right there [holding up the winner's envelope]. This is a great honor for me. I thank you all very much. I feel real lucky to have been a part of "Tootsie," to have worked with actors like Charlie Durning and Dabney Coleman and Teri Garr, and to have had Sydney Pollack as my director and Dustin Hoffman as my leading lady. Oh, this is so exciting. I want to thank you all very, very much. This means so much to me. Thank you.
