Speech
Kernochan: We thank the Academy for their wonderful tribute
and for supporting this category still. We thank security for letting
Thoth play on the red carpet. I am so grateful to everyone who helped
me make this film and to HBO which is our new home. And a big kiss
for their support to James and Phoebe Lapine, Jack and Adelaide
Kernochan and Romeo Gigli. I made this film to call attention to
a man who, in a world where people are waging so much war, this
man takes to the street and wages love nearly every day of his life.
And so I hope that he will think of this as all that love coming
right back at him. Thank you.
Additional Thanks
Kernochan: Jack and Adelaide Kernochan, Romeo Gigli, James
and Phoebe Lapine, Sheila Nevins, Peter Frank, Friedrike Merck,
Curt Johnson, Elayne Jones, Emily Paine, Don Lenzer, Mead Hunt,
Steven Robinson, Kate Fix, Jason Summers, DuArt Film Labs, Teatown
Video, Wendy Ettinger and The Ettinger Foundation.
Appelle: All my friends and family for continued support
through the years. To everyone who worked on it, Emily Paine, Curt
Johnson, all our crew. To Sarah for the opportunity and Thoth for
the inspiration and Thoth for opening his life and his world to
all of us.
