It has been a huge part of my life, so thank you BAFTA. Thank you to my wonderful cast, our producers, our studio. Thank you to my wife and my wonderful children. DAVID O. RUSSELL: I thank you, Eric, for bringing this wonderful story. ERIC WARREN SINGER: I thank you, David. I thank you so much. DAVID O. RUSSELL: No, I think without Eric or Charles Roven or Richard Suckle I would not have been here, because they brought me this story that characters that came to amazing life, it was just extraordinary. Most of all I just have to thank the actors who it has been my privilege to work with. I write for them, they inspire me. They make me write better and do everything better because of their humanity and that's -- Bradley Cooper, who is a great collaborator to me in every aspect of the film making. It is Christian Bale, who we started in his backyard talking about this. These are two masterful actors. Amy Adams, who is a great muse to me and of course Jennifer and Jeremy Renner and Robert De Niro and Jack Huston, who is here in this house, and on and on. Holly, you are beautiful and Josh, thank you very much. And Campisi, thank you.
