Speech
Martin: Another little scrap of paper. Thank you again to
the Academy. Thank you to Mr. Ian Gracie and his colleagues, the
best art director and art department in the world, who with his
team of craftsmen managed to create the physical world of MOULIN
ROUGE entirely on sound stages in my hometown of Sydney, Australia.
To Mr. McAlpine, an artist and a teacher, I thank you. And to Baz.
You come up with ideas that even I sometimes think are crazy. But
you've taught me to live the dream that anything is possible through
ideas, hard work and discipline. Thank you for letting me come on
this journey with you. You are my other half. This is for you. Thank
you and thank you to my family and all my friends.
Additional Thanks
Broch: The Academy, Baz for being such an inspiration for
all of us, the Moulin art department, Ian Gracie, Karen Murphy,
Prisque Salvi, Deb Riley, Nikki Di Falco. My daughter Deni for being
the love of my life. Mexico who has adopted me. Gracias Mexico,
lindo y querido, este Oscar es para ti. Viva Mexico!
