## Transcript

Thank you very much. Thank you. Thanks. The reason they're, people go on about thanking so many people is there are always so many people to thank. I've taken care of personally and privately most everyone except for Nancy and Brad. And I wanna thank the Hollywood Forum Press for even having. A comedy category. Really man, really. If I can carry that flag for even a night I'm I'm proud to do so. Alejandro. There's not a person in this room who won't show up for your next gig my fan, my brother. I'm telling you, just name the place. You name the time and I, not just me, there's not an actor or an actress in this room who won't show up.

[ APPLAUSE ] Woo! Thanks for being a true artist. Thanks for letting me be part of this unbelievably gutsy, unapologetic look at human nature. Thanks. It's been a ride. This cast is tremendous. The crew is tremendous. Everybody was great. In the household in which I was raised the themes were pretty simple. Work hard. Don't quit. Be appreciative. Be thankful. Be grateful. Be respectful. Also to never wine, ever. Never complain, and always for crying out loud keep a sense of humor. My name's Michael John Douglas. I'm from Forest Grove, Pennsylvania. And the f, son, seventh child of George and Leona Douglas.

And I don't ever remember a time when my father didn't work two jobs, when my mother wasn't saying the rosary or going to mass or trying to take care of seven kids in a run down farmhouse. As she was volunteering at Ohio Valley hospital where I was born in the hallway. [ LAUGH ] I've got six wonderful brothers and sisters. I have some tremendous, tremendously loving and generous friends all over the world. My best friend is kind. Intelligent, funny, talented, considerate, thoughtful, did I say kind? He also He also happens to be my son. [ UNKNOWN ] [ APPLAUSE ] I love you with all my heart, buddy.

This is for all those people. For all of them. Sorry, shoot, two things I said I wasn't gonna do. Cry, and give air quotes. [ LAUGH ] Damn. I'm so grateful, honestly, from the bottom of my heart. You have no idea what this means to me. And to come from the place where I come from, I'm proud of all my friends and my family. Thank you very, very much. I'm extremely grateful.
