This is a speech directed to the audience of the 2003 Academy Awards arguing that feature films are made for money, rather than entertainment.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I come before you all tonight at the 2003 Los Angeles Academy Awards to tell you this: You're all a bunch of fakes. I think it's safe to say that there is not a sincere person among you- you're all living a lie. None of you are real people, you're all personas given birth to by agents and nurtured by the media. I doubt that in the sea of award winners and nominees …

…of feature films. These movies are an important escape from reality for the viewing public, who does not necessarily want to immerse themselves in a world that confronts the very core of their beliefs. Just answer me one last thing: In a society that considers itself to be more enlightened than ever before, why is it necessary to look to a medium that would rather assure us of our own correctness than expand our minds?"
