00:00Please help me welcome Naomi's good friend and great actor, Edward Norton!

00:17I can tell you right now that Naomi thinks she's getting roasted

00:22because that has been our tradition for many years, but you're not.

00:28You're not. You're going to get loved up today.

00:33I can remember the exact theater I was in and who I was with

00:39when I saw David Lynch's Mulholland Drive.

00:43And like so many people in the audience, when a certain actress that we'd never seen before

00:50did a scene of an audition,

00:54I think I knew in my gut that this day, what we're doing here right now was an inevitability for that actress.

01:03And in the intervening 20-something years since then, I've gotten to do two films with Naomi.

01:14And we have tussled awkwardly under sheets, we have gotten married, we've gotten divorced,

01:21we've had affairs, we've fought, we've bloodied ourselves, slapped, we've lived lives together.

01:28And I want to say this, you have lots of experiences making films that are intense and fun and interesting and inspiring.

01:38You will never have more fun than making a film with Naomi.

01:43She is the highest talent to lowest pretension ratio of anybody.

01:48She's stilettos on the red carpet and sketchers in rehearsal on set.

01:53She has the best laugh.

01:55She is the most delightfully un-serious person within a serious craft and trade while taking it seriously.

02:04She is truly a testament to the best of our craft and our industry.

02:12And her love of it has never diminished.

02:16And it's infectious, it rubs off on you and leaves you where I am, which is you just want to do more.

02:23I need our third film and our fourth film and our fifth film at a much higher cadence than we've been doing to date.

02:31You are a marvel.

02:33I'm so grateful to have gotten to work with you.

02:36And you deserve this as much as anybody in our peer group.

02:41And congratulations to you. I love you.
