The 79th Annual Academy Awards

The 79th Annual Academy Awards2007



Himself - Winner:
Best Adapted Screenplay: Well, valium does work. Anyway, I was going to cut off the beginning of this speech and make it brief, but I'm gonna leave it back in and say the movie that made me wanna be a screenwriter was Robert Bolt's "Lawrence of Arabia." And I don't know what could've happened in the universe to end up at the same Oscars as Peter O'Toole, you know; so it's crazy. He's here, I've seen him. So anyway, thanks to the Academy, to Warner Bros., everybody at Warner Bros. Alan Mak and Felix Chong who wrote "Infernal Affairs." The producers present and not present, the agents, everybody who made "The Departed" such a success. Thanks to Marty and Leo for reading the script and calling each other and saying let's make it. And Thelma. Everyone who worked on "The Departed" was, it's easy to say, on the top of their game before they started, and under Marty's direction it only got higher after that. Thank you very much.
