The Oscars! Every
February Oscar Fever hits the
entertainment community and film fans
around the world, building to the
crescendo of the annual Academy Awards
Presentation a month later, when hundreds
of millions of cinema lovers glue
themselves to their television sets to
learn who will receive the little golden
statuette.
After nearly three-quarters of a
century of recognizing excellence in
filmmaking achievement, the presentation
of the Oscars has become the Academy of
Motion Picture Arts and Sciences' most
famous activity.
The Academy Awards Presentation is also
the activity that has enabled the
organization to maintain its varied
year-round calendar of programs and events
and a wide-ranging educational and
cultural agenda.
The Annual Academy Awards Presentation
has been held since 1929.
All voting for Academy Awards is
conducted by secret ballot and tabulated
by the impartial auditing firm,
PricewaterhouseCoopers. The secrecy is
maintained by the auditors; the results of
the balloting are not revealed until the
now-famous envelopes are opened on stage
during the Awards program. Because the
Academy numbers among its members the
ablest artists and craftsmen in the motion
picture world, the Oscar represents the
best achievements of the year in the
opinion of those who themselves reside at
the top of their craft.

TVI OSCAR QUOTES:
01
ACCEPTANCE SPEECH Sean Penn
MYSTIC RIVER
-----Thank
you. If there's one thing that actors
know, other than that there weren't any
wmds -- it's that there is no such thing
as best in acting. And that's proven by
these great actors that I was nominated
with as well as the -- as well as the
Giamattis, Cages, Downey Jrs., Nicholsons,
etc. that were not nominated. We know how
great all of you were. My daughter Dylan
and son Hopper find it presumptuous and
embarrassing to write a speech, and so I'm
gonna give it a go without. God, I really
thank Clint Eastwood professionally and
humanly for coming into my life. The
great, great cast that I had to work with,
my friends. Where do you go? Dennis
Lehane, Brian Helgeland, Ma. Dad. Robin,
for being an undying emotional inspiration
on this roller coaster I'm learning to
enjoy. Thank you all very much.
02
ACCEPTANCE SPEECH Charlize Theron
MONSTER
-----This
has been such an incredible year. I can't
believe this. I don't have a lot of time.
I have to thank my incredible director,
Patty Jenkins. Thank you, thank you, thank
you. All of our producers, Brad, Clark,
Meagan, Mark, Donald, Sammy Lee, everybody
at Media 8, Bob and everybody at
Newmarket, thank you so much for working
so hard on this film. My incredible,
incredible leading lady Christina Ricci,
who I couldn't have done this film
without. You are truly the unsung hero of
this film. I have to thank our entire
crew, Toni G. For transforming me, so
incredibly. Every single person who worked
on this film. I couldn't have done it
without you guys. My incredible manager
J.J. Harris, who has represented me for so
long now and you've always believed in me.
I can't thank you enough. My friend, Steve
Warren, my lawyer, thank you so much. Yes,
I know. He's my friend. Heidi Schaeffer
and Amanda Silverman from PMK. My guardian
angel Beth Kono. My producing partner
Meagan Riley-Grant and if I'm forgetting
anybody, please don't kill me. And I know
everybody in New Zealand has been thanked
so I'm going to thank everybody in South
Africa, my home country. They're all
watching tonight. And I'm bringing this
home next week. And I have to thank my
incredible partner in crime, you're one
hell of a partner to have. Thank you so
much for standing by me. And my mom.You've
sacrificed so much for me to be able to
live here and make my dreams come true.
And there are no words to describe how
much I love you. And I'm not gonna cry.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

ACCEPTANCE SPEECH Renée
Zellweger
COLD MOUNTAIN
-----I am
overwhelmed. I am overwhelmed. Thank you.
I would like to thank the Academy for
inviting me here tonight, alongside so
many talented people. Holly, Patricia and
Marcia, and Shohreh. I am honored, honored
to be here with you. I'm standing here
because of so many people, and I would
like to thank them now, if I could.
Charles Frazier, thank you for your
masterpiece and the gift of Ruby. I have
to thank the producers, cast and crew of
"Cold Mountain." I'll never forget it,
never, because of you, especially Jude and
Nicole. Such a privilege to go to work
every day with you. Such a privilege, my
friends. Thank you. Anthony Minghella, you
are brilliant. And I care so much for you.
Thank you for all that you taught me, for
making me be better and for your
friendship. My friends at Miramax, for
making this film, especially Harvey. And
Meryl Poster, quite a gamble. Thank you
for doing it. My fellows at CAA, Brandt
and Bryan and Kevin and Jenny Rawlings who
take such good care of me. Actors
Clearinghouse for the great start, Sims
Ellison, Vincent D'Onofrio for teaching me
how to work, Tom Cruise for showing me
that, very early on, kindness and success
are not mutually exclusive. And finally
and most importantly in my life, my
glorious family, my immigrant mom and dad.
Thank you for never saying don't try. My
brother, who I love so much, and his new
wife, who clapped the loudest and laughed
the loudest. I love you so much. Nanci
Ryder, who's always there, and my beloved
John Carrabino, thank you for sharing this
journey with me, every day of it. Without
you, there would be none of this. Thank
you for dreaming so much bigger than I
would ever dare to dream. And for making
me believe. Love you. This is for you.
Thank you.

ACCEPTANCE SPEECH Peter
Jackson:
THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE RETURN OF
THE KING
-----Just
waiting for Fran to get her Oscar. There
we go. This is just unbelievable. I'm so
honored, touched and relieved that the
Academy and the members of the Academy
that have supported us have seen past the
trolls and the wizards and the hobbits and
are now recognizing fantasy this year.
Fantasy is an f-word that hopefully the
five second delay won't do anything with.
I just want to say a very few quick words
especially to the people of New Zealand
and the government of New Zealand and the
city councils and everybody who supported
us the length and breadth of the country.
Billy Crystal is welcome to come and make
a film in New Zealand any time he wants. A
special thanks to Peter Nelson and Ken
Kamins, who were with me right from the
days of "Bad Taste," and "Meet the
Feebles" which were wisely overlooked by
the Academy at that time. And I especially
want to pay tribute to our wonderful
producer, Barrie Osborne. And I'd please
like him to say a few words.
Barrie
Osborne:
-----It's a
great honor to be here. I started out in
the business 35 years ago getting people
coffee. And I wonder if the fact that I
dated Billy Crystal's cousin so many years
ago has anything to do with this. But it
is really a great pleasure to be in such
great company. Uh-oh, I'm in trouble now.
To be nominated with these four other
great films and after these many years to
receive this award is really a thrill for
all of us and we all thank the Academy.
It's really a tribute to the talents of
all the people both in front of the camera
and behind the camera that we win this
award. I want to thank, in particular, my
partner Carol, my beautiful daughter
Danielle and my87-year-old dad who's out
there in the back somewhere here to
celebrate this with us. I want to thank,
also, J.R.R. Tolkien and also the fans
that supported us on this journey. And of
course, Bob Shaye and Michael Lynne whose
courageous venture allowed us to make this
film and their support throughout the
journey, and Mark Ordesky, who worked
alongside of us throughout and became a
great film -- a great friend, sorry. And
of course to Peter Jackson, who was never
satisfied with 100%. But by his example of
pushing for 110%, he inspired all of us to
do our utmost to make these films and
bring them to the screen. And finally, to
Weta, who is in Chicago, in Wellington,
New Zealand, and to the production team
who are in the Port Nicholson Yacht Club,
it's time to celebrate.
