Alan Robert Murray

"Letters from Iwo Jima"

Acceptance Speech
Alan Robert Murray: Well, first of all I'd like to thank the Academy, our distinguished director Clint Eastwood, producer Steven Spielberg, Paul Haggis and Rob Lorenz, the incredible support from everyone in the Malpaso family, Warner Bros. and Dreamworks, support from the United States Marine Corps, to our wives and children for their continued support and understanding, our exceptional picture and sound editors on Letters and the mix team of Gregg Rudloff, John Reitz and Dave Campbell.

And finally, thank you to my father and all the brave, honorable men and women in uniform, who in a time of crisis have all made that decision to defend their personal freedom and liberty no matter what the sacrifice.
