00:00First question, do I have lipstick all over my nose?
00:03I'm just going to leave it.
00:06I knew the first time that I walked on a Chris Nolan set that it was different.
00:11I could tell by the level of rigor, the level of focus, the level of dedication,
00:17the complete lack of any seating options for actors.
00:22That it was, I was in the hands of a visionary director, a master.
00:26And I want to thank Chris and Emma for having the faith in me for 20 years
00:31and six feckin' pictures.
00:33So, thanks so much.
00:36One of the most beautiful and vulnerable things about being an actor
00:39is that you can't do it on your own, really.
00:41And we had the most incredible ensemble cast in this movie.
00:45It was magic, and some of them are here today.
00:47Oh, to all my fellow nominees, if you're Irish or not, you're all legends.
00:53You're stunning work. I salute you.
00:54To my family, I'm the luckiest man.
00:58Love you. Thanks so much, guys.
