Acceptance Speech
Oh, God, what an amazing feeling. Terrifying but amazing. Mom, I know you're up there somewhere. I think. Rob Marshall, I know you're here, too. I want to thank you for, you know, like we said earlier, this was your vision, and we feel like we were part of it. And you know, I hope we made you proud, and you know, to Sony Pictures for being brave enough to make this movie. And our great producers. My beautiful wife, who is over there, who is my inspiration, and my muse. To our beautiful boy at home, Axel, who was born during the making of this movie, and it will be a beautiful part of my life forever. Thank you.

Special Online Thanks
My brilliant crew without which none of this would have been possible. I would have like to have thanked each one individually.

I dedicate this to my dad.

I want to wave the flag with this win for Australia and South Africa.
