Acceptance Speech
Thank you so much, members of the Academy. In our soul rests, I think, our own true identity, beyond languages, countries, races and religions. I'm so proud to work in Babel, a film that helped us understand better who we are and why and what are we here for. A few thanks: I want to thank John Lesher, Brad Grey, Jon Kilik, Steve Golin, Robert Messinger, Lynn Fainchtein, Anibal Kerpel, my wife Alejandra, my kids Anna, Luna, Don Juan, my mother; the man, my mentor, director and friend, mi amigo, Alejandro González Iñárritu. And last but not least, I want to dedicate this to my dad, para el Viejo, para Argentina, and once again, para todos Latinos. Gracias.
