AND VIDEO OF THE DIRECTOR GIVING HIM THE BIRD
"It's been a very long road back for me, not really good public speaker. Several years ago, I was almost out of this business. A young man got in touch with me and put his whole career on the line by representing me. he did a hell of a job, I wanna thank David Unger for having the balls. I wanna thank his boss for not putting him back in the mail room. I worked with a really special director who had to really fight hard for me to be in this movie cause he couldn't get no money on my name, Darren Aronofsky. I've said this before, in like sports especially, which I can relate to, really great players or directors they come around every 30 years and I really do believe Darren is one of those cats. He brought the best out of me, he hates it when I say he is tough, but he is one tough son of a bitch, and if your not in shape, the man will bring you down. He's smarter than the rest of us. I gotta thank Fox Searchlight for coming to the rescue, we didn't have a distributor"
He thanked all of his co-stars, and the producer Scott Franklin. all of his dogs and Bruce Springsteen for everything, thank you.
