CHARLES FERGUSON:
Forgive me, I must start by pointing out that three years after a horrific financial crisis caused by massive fraud not a single financial executive has gone to jail, and that's wrong. Thank you. But this is, this is also, this is about the movies, in fact that's what this is, so thank you all for this profound honor. You've made us very, very happy. Thank you all. Let the record show I'm not wearing jeans.
AUDREY MARRS:
Having only made two films I still feel that Charles and I are newcomers to this community, but from the beginning we've been made to feel incredibly welcome and supported for which I'm immensely grateful. Thank you so much to the Academy, and to Sony Classics' Michael and Tom, and much love and gratitude to my family. Thank you so much.
