First of all I'd like to thank the academy, it's very rare when an
oscar is awarded to a five month old; in fact the last big baby to
win it was Oliver Stone. I'd like to thank my mom - Elsa Ransom
who really gives me a chance to chew up some scenery; that's
pun number three for those of you keeping track. Of course my
father Chris Pape, who took time off from his turkey wrangling job
to film this anti-war epic.
For those of you who supported "Silly Faces" in local art house
theaters before the Weinstein brothers became involved; thank
you. And most of all to our boys in Iraq - this film was for you;
come home soon. Thank you everybody and have a great new year!
