ARTHUR COHN:
The members of the Academy, eight years ago you have honored me with my third Oscar. Tonight you are honoring me with my fourth. However, it is not I whom you're honoring. It is you, distinguished members of the Academy, who with this Oscar have again encouraged independent producers everywhere to do the kind of films they believe in, knowing that far away in Hollywood there is an Academy whose only criteria is a good and meaningful film which may be remembered for a long time. Thank you so very much for your support, for your recognition, and above all for your continuous encouragement.
