MICHAEL SUGAR:
Thank you, hello everybody. I love you, Lauren, we did it. This film gave a voice to survivors, and this Oscar amplifies that voice which we hope will become a choir that will resonate all the way to the Vatican. Pope Francis, it’s time to protect the children and restore the faith. Thank you very much.
BLYE PAGON FAUST:
We would not be here today without the heroic efforts of our reporters. Not only do they effect global change, but they absolutely show us the necessity for investigative journalism.
NICOLE ROCKLIN:
We’d also like to thank our partners: Tom Ortenberg and everyone at Open Road, Jeff Skoll and Jonathan King and everyone at Participant, eOne, Anonymous Content, First Look, Michael Bederman, David Mizner. Josh Singer and Tom McCarthy, your tenacity and vision is unparalleled. To our cast, if there ever was a perfectly calibrated ensemble, you are it. Thank you so much.
