    • Quotes

      Mark Rylance - Winner: Best Actor in a Supporting Role: I've always just adored stories, hearing them, seeing them, being in them, so for me to have the chance to work with, I think, one of the greatest storytellers of our time, Steven Spielberg, it's just been such an honor. And unlike some of the leaders we're being presented with these days, he leads with such love that he's surrounded by masters in every craft on his film, every craft, not the least, Mr. Tom Hanks. People, I'm so pleased that our film has been nominated so many times, and as a face of the film, I meet many people in the streets and it's lovely to have them, they're always saying to me, "Would it help?" and all that stuff. And I think, if you ever wondered about acting with Tom Hanks, would it help. The answer's clearly yes. I want to just say thank you to my fellow nominees. I don't know how they separate my acting from your glorious acting in these wonderful films that you're in, which everyone must see. I don't know how they separated the five of us from all the other supporting actors who are making films at the moment. It's a wonderful time to be an actor and I'm proud to be part of it. Thank you.

    For me, this was the peak of the Oscars. The Revenant stands as one of my favorite films ever so seeing it winning Best Cinematography, Best actor, and Best Director, it was amazing. All of the other contenders are top notch as well so this was definitely my favorite Oscar ceremony that I've seen.
