During his acceptance speech for Best Actor, Adrien Brody disregarded time limits, speaking for five minutes while reflecting on his career. He highlighted the themes of grief and resilience linked to his roles as Holocaust survivors. Brody urged for a more inclusive and healthier world, emphasizing lessons learned from history. He remarked on the precarious nature of an acting career and expressed gratitude for continuing to pursue his passion amidst the volatility of the industry.
I'm here once again to represent the lingering traumas and the repercussions of war and systematic oppression, and of antisemitism and racism and othering.
Acting is a very fragile profession. It looks very glamorous, and at certain moments it is.
What makes this night most special is the awareness of that, and the gratitude that I have to still do the work that I love.
I pray for a healthier and a happier and a more inclusive world, and I believe if the past can teach us anything, it's a reminder to not let hate go unchecked.
