MARCEL OPHULS:
I want to thank the Academy. And there's a lot of people I have to thank because it's a very long film. There are whole countries to thank. The ones I belong to, the ones I love: France and America. And I want to thank the...It took a very long time to do the film, therefore I want to thank the people who had all the patience, and let me go over budget, and raised funds and helped get it out of the cutting room: John Friedman, Peter Kovler, Hamilton Fish. And thank you, Ernst, and thank you, Sam. Je voudrais aussi remercier le montage de Billancourt: Catherine Zins, Albert Jurgenson and Sophie Brunet. Thank you.
