Speech
Thank you. I don't want your pity. I want to thank first of all
the music branch for giving me so many chances to be humiliated
over the years. I have nothing, I'm absolutely astounded that I've
won for this, though the picture deserves recognition. They made
four pictures in a row that were good, and Peter Weir did that once
but I can't remember another instance exactly. All four of the Pixar
Disney movies were good.
[To the musicians in the orchestra pit]: Wait. Are you really going
to play in four seconds? Don't play, it's been so long.
I have something... I would like to thank Milos Forman and Barry
Levinson... [laughs].
No, I'm very grateful. I would like to thank John Lasseter, Pete
Docter, all these musicians [referring to the orchestra] many of
whom have worked for me a number of times and may not again. Walking
out here and having someone this beautiful [referring to presenter
Jennifer Lopez] give me an award, I'll never get to heaven but that's
as close as you get I think. Thanks very much. I'm thrilled.
Additional Thanks
Cathy Kerr and Mike Gorfaine, both of whom have been with me the
whole way.
