Winners' acceptance speech by Emma Stone for La La Land in the Leading Actress category
EMMA STONE: Oh, wow. Thank you so much for this. This is an unbelievable honour. Thank you to BAFTA.
At the risk of sounding a little redundant, with Linus and Damien, one of the greatest parts about tonight is sitting with all of these incredible people that made this film. We became such a family. So thank you Linus and Tom and David and Sandy and Mary and Justin and Mandy Moore and Gillian and Mike - and the list goes on and on. Our producers, Fred, Jordan, Marc, and of course Ryan, who elevates everything he touches. And Damien, for this incredible opportunity. Thank you so much.
This was one of the greatest working experiences of my life and it was such a joy. And I don't know if you realise this, but right now, this country and the US and the world seems to be going through a bit of a time - just a bit - and in a time that's so divisive, I think it's really special that we were all able to come together tonight, thanks to BAFTA, to celebrate the positive gift of creativity, and how it can transcend borders and how it can help people to feel a little less alone.
I am very grateful to be in this room. I feel very, very lucky. And thank you so much for this. This is a huge honour.
Thank you.
