The Oscars2014
Himself - Winner:
Best Documentary Feature: Thank you. I first want to thank, along with my producer Cait, our other producer, Gil Friesen. This was his idea and it was his baby. And when I first met with him I remember he said, "I want to win an Oscar." I remember thinking, you're crazy. That will never happen. Gil passed away just weeks before we premiered the film at Sundance, and tonight I know he's celebrating with us along with his wife Janet and his son Theo. I just want to thank my backup singers: my wife Jennette, my kids, Sadie and Cameron. I want to thank our amazing distributors, RADiUS and the Weinstein Company. And lastly, these incredible singers, like Miss Darlene Love.
Darlene Love:
Lord God, I praise you and I am so happy to be here representing the ladies of "20 Feet from Stardom." [sings:] "I sing because I'm happy. I sing because I'm free. 'Cause His eye is on the sparrow and I know He watches me." Alton, I love you.
