Josh is always so humble about all the praise he has been receiving these past two years.

It's too bad he's up against Heath this year or he might really have had a shot at the award.

Here's hoping that he'll get to work with many great film makers in the future. I'd love to see a Scorsese collaboration. Good luck!
