Honestly, the producer Laurence Mark is terrible at making humble acceptance speeches.

Congratulations to Mr. Scorsese; a well-deserved victory which I hope holds up to the DGA prize.

One of the most impressive Best Picture lineups in the Academy's history, though I would have switched "Norma Rae" for "Manhattan."


Still, "Apocalypse Now."
