The whole night was worth Murray's acceptance.
The show's highlight may have been the acceptance speech by the notoriously sardonic (Bill) Murray, who thanked Coppola before dryly mocking Hollywood award speeches, declaring he had fired all his agents and representatives and had no one else to thank.
He also poked fun at the idea that comedy performers are overshadowed by dramatic stars. "Too often we forget our brothers on the other side of the aisle — the dramatic actors," he said. "I'd just like to say: Where would our war, our miseries and our psychological dramas come from?"
Meryl Strrep used her acting talent to take a swipe at Bush's state of the union speech. She said something to the effect that marriage and steroids weren't the two biggest problems facing America. Well, Meryl. . . No one else said they were either. That would be hyperbole.
