Wow I think any of us who make movies know that you kind of dream of this moment. You know you do. I could deny it but I have been dreaming of this moment for so long, but it seemed so unlikely that it would ever finally happen.

The reason this movie was the movie it was was because Chris Nolan. He is singular, he is brilliant, and I am so grateful for you. But as I said, the thing that’s fantastic about our jobs is that it’s about collaboration, it’s about teamwork.
