Speech
Thank you. What a thrill. Members of the Academy, thank you. Thank
you for taking the time to even view the tape and consider our film.
Ed Harris, thank you for inviting me to share your passion. You
are a brave director and an even braver actor and I love you. Dad,
who's here tonight, thank you for teaching me how to soldier through
tough situations and Mom, for teaching me how to do it gracefully.
To Fred Berner, Peter Brant and Joe Allen, thank you for rearing
this film and ushering it into the world, Sony Pictures Classics,
and especially Michael Barker.
To my family and my agents and Maryellen Mulcahy, without whom
I would never be here. My lawyer, my husband Thaddaeus Scheel, all
the people who help you in this crazy business, I want to thank
you and for the inception of the film, James Trezza and Barbara
Turner. Thank you.
