So you're really seeing the worst part of me. We're told to remember that the higher the monkey climbs, the more he shows his ass. It's the awards season, and, you know, it's a two-edged sword. I can't remember my own name half the time. Allison gave the whole family, the "West Wing" family, thanks and praise. I have fewer future opportunities, so I'll accept this with gratitude from SAG, and praise to my fellow actors. The only thing that really separates us is age. And, God, I'm so good, I remembered those two. And in my little homebase, Elaine Goldsmith Thomas and Jeff Berg, my agent, and Marcy Engleman, and everybody that I've ever met in my life.Īnd my sister, Lisa, who knows so many people in SAG, and she said,"I told everybody to vote for you." So Lisa, thank you because it worked! And Benjamin, honey - thank you just for being my best friend and being just the most handsome date a gal could want. And Albert Finney, who's fabulous, and Aaron Eckhart and all the wonderful actors that played - God bless you, Sam Waterston - who played my children. So I just want to thank Steven Soderbergh, my own personal god. And we all know that it's kind of torture. And so I - I - there's all these invisible people behind me that I wish you could see, because they're lovely and they're sweet and they work so hard, and they make what I do look like it's easy. You guys know, I'm a fraud to stand here alone because, God, there's so many people that make me look like I know what I'm doing. And I appreciate that so much, because I'm not always sure.Īnd it's not just me. And thank you, actors - just great, great actors - and now I really feel so much better about my level of talent than I did this afternoon. To be a girl and to enjoy anything that has to do with SAG, you know, you have to figure it's pretty important. But it's not, so I'll be serious - in my own special way. This is - you know, if this was a prom this would be like the best school ever to go to.
