Thank you Sarah for your mention in the credits – I love the dress and agree with you that style often trumps content in some acceptance speeches. I am very happy when someone makes a comment or reblogs – award and kind enough. Many hugs.. XXS
No, well, the Oscar doesn’t go to me, nor does the BAFTA, Emmy or any other performing arts award. When I was young, I’d written that Oscar speech before I’d even been to the audition. As yer do.
I wouldn’t cry, unless I could manufacture one delicate teardrop down my right cheek. I wouldn’t thank everyone by name, thereby boring everyone knicker-rigid, and I certainly wouldn’t go on at length, ad infinitum, till the cows came home.

The speech would be short and simple, and discussed endlessly. I’d be in the media for a goodly time for the exquisite gown I would have worn. Probably something like this—but in black and with a scattering of tiny, real diamonds—none of yer paste jewellery, thank you very much.
