Coen Brothers Best Adapted Screenplay Acceptance Speech: Thank you very much for this. Thank you Scott Rudin for bringing us the novel and giving us a chance to make this movie. Whatever success we've had in this area is entirely attributable to how selective we are. We've only adapted Homer and Cormac McCarthy. Thank you.

• Thank you very much.

• Ethan Coen:
  • I don't have a lot to add to what I said earlier. Thank you.
• Joel Coen:
  • Ethan and I have been making stories with movie cameras since we were kids. In the late '60s when Ethan was 11 or 12, he got a suit and a briefcase and we went to the Minneapolis International Airport with a Super 8 camera and made a movie about shuttle diplomacy called "Henry Kissinger, Man on the Go." And honestly, what we do now doesn't feel that much different from what we were doing then. There are too many people to thank for this. We're really thrilled to have received it, and we're very thankful to all of you out there for letting us continue to play in our corner of the sandbox, so thank you very much.
