DEBORAH L. SCOTT:
Thank you very much to the Academy. I am deeply honored to accept this award on the behalf of David LeVey, Beth Koenigsberg, Lahly Poore, Matt Reitsma, Dale Wibben, Dominic Gherardi, Jean Gold, and the rest of my remarkable costume crew. Their dedication, talent, friendship and guidance helped fulfill my dream to bring the spirit of Titanic and her passengers to life. Thank you, Jim Cameron, for the first-class passage. Thanks, Jon Landau and Rae Sanchini, for such fine navigation. For my parents, my husband, and finally my two daughters Tess and Hana, whose beauty is my greatest inspiration, thank you.
