THEODOR PISTEK:
Ladies and gentleman, this is the biggest and the happiest day of my film career. I am very happy and proud and for me is it [sic] unbelievable because it is my first American movie. I thank the Academy of Motion Picture for the honor. And now, because the filmmaking is teamwork, I would like to send my thanks to all my collaborators in Czechoslovakia and Italy, mainly to my girl assistant, Zuzana Machova. But the biggest thanks are to Milos Forman because he made the great film, and if the film is great all other people on this movie they have their own chance. Thank you, Milos. Thank you.
