The 79th Annual Academy Awards2007

Herself - Winner:
Best Costume Design: Well, I'm very happy to be here but it's also very frightening to be here. So in one way I wanted to get this doll, and another, I was frightened. But thank you very, very much. I want to thank Francis, first of all, for introducing me to Sofia when we were doing "Cotton Club." And she was this [motions to her height as a girl] , and now she's my director. I think she did a wonderful movie; her movie is like a poem and she inspired me. I haven't prepared this speech so I have to hurry up because Marshall, my husband, said I have to get out of here quickly. So I want to thank everybody who had anything to do with this movie. Without them I wouldn't be here, and it's a communal effort, therefore thank everybody very, very much. I want to dedicate this award first of all to Momma, then Hugh Hudson, and Stanley Kubrick, my great master. Without them, I wouldn't be here. Thank you.
