JIM CLARK:
I would like to thank the Academy very much for this tremendous award which I would love to share with all my fellow colleagues in London who worked extremely hard to make the best of a wonderful film. I would like also to thank David Puttnam and Iain Smith for giving me the opportunity to cut the picture, and to Warner Bros. and Goldcrest for so courageously funding it. And most of all to Roland Joffé, making his debut as a veteran director. Thank you very much.
