  • @Plysomack precisely! 

  • Orson Fucking Welles!

  • @gimpyguitarist so true, also I somehow forgot to list my favorite director Howard Hawks

  • @pretzelpimp don't forget Kubrick, Kurosawa, Bergman, and even Spielberg.

  • @Mrx2848 Wrong.

  • Ever the spell-binding speaker and a paragon of excellence in just that, finding the words.

  • Could there be a more worthy prize-winner?

  • Hm. Talking about the rise of power of "Hollywood" there?

  • Yeah, I'd say greatest acceptance speech ever. The ones people give today are pathetic.
