Do you have the speech that Shirley Maclaine gives in presenting this award? If so, can you post it?

[sanfrancisco89]

The best acceptance speech I have heard to date. Give, that Streisand can be a little too introspective and long winded, I have to admit, this is a winner.

[sanfrancisco89]

Would I love nothing more than being able to say with straight faced confidence that I do what I do, because I simply had no other choice.

Great Speech

Interesting that Streisand expresses gratitude to William Wyler, the director of "Funny Girl" her first and best film, and the best showcase for her musical talent and abilities. When she began to direct herself, she became self-indulgent and her films, without diminishing her achievements, never attained the same level of quality. She intends to re-make "Gypsy", a project to which she is well suited, but she needs a strong director like Wyler to make sure that the film realizes its potential.

It's good to see how crazy he is about her.

Besides being a very special, gifted, and unique person with multiple talents and abilitiets, she is very smart, possessing the whole gamet of intelligence types such as intellectual, emotional, and intuitive. In addition to enjoying the positive aspects of this intelligence, she must also suffer its downside which is seeing and knowing. It's not an easy house to keep in order or to balance. Through it all, she has managed to find beautiful and powerful ways of expressing and sharing it all.

She looks soooooooooooo beautiful! Speech is too long! I think people in the audience are getting bored!
