"And finally, I would say that, you know, we are a little bit out of touch in
Hollywood every once in a while. I think it's probably a good thing. We're the
ones who talk about AIDS when it was just being whispered, and we talked about
civil rights when it wasn't really popular. And we, you know, we bring up
subjects. This Academy, this group of people gave Hattie McDaniel an Oscar in
1939 when blacks were still sitting in the backs of theaters. I'm proud to be a
part of this Academy. Proud to be part of this community, and proud to be out of
touch."
I was also amused by his whole " I guess I am not an oscar winning director." Although I thought Good Night and Good Luck got fucking robbed for the best picture.
