""I've become a mom and I'm in a wow moment of my life that I never expected, and it's such an honour to come home and share this with you," she said. Buckley gave a nod to her co-star Paul Mescal in her speech. "I know everyone is sick of me talking about how much I love him, but I love him, and to Kerry for reminding me of my own wildness," she said."
""I've just come up from west Cork to be here this evening," said Coogan on the red carpet. "I got a nod as an honorary Irish man, and I'm very proud of the film. "I am part of the Irish diaspora and it's a strange identity because when you go to another part of the world, you always feel half Irish.""
