Lost In Translation (Live Blogging #17)

Posted Sun, Feb 24, 2008, 7:07 PM

As a pseudo-press member, I'm on the Academy e-mail PR list.  For weeks I've been getting a steady stream of e-mails promoting miscellaneous events and product tie-ins.  Tonight though, I get some cool stuff... transcripts of acceptance speeches and backstage interviews. 

These transcripts help add color and context to the proceedings, or in the case of winner Javier Bardem, give a translation of the foreign language portion of his speech.

Welcome to my world as a Hollywood insider...

Wow. Alright, this is very amazing. It's a great honor for me to have this. I want to & I have to speak fast here, man. Thank you to the Coens for being crazy enough to think that I could do that and put one of the most horrible haircuts in history over my head.

Thank you for really proving my work. I want to share this with the cast, with the great Tommy Lee Jones, with the great Josh Brolin, with the great Kelly MacDonald. And I want to dedicate this to my mother, and I have to say this in Spanish, and I'm sorry...

[Speaking in Spanish]

Thank you very much!


You're welcome!
