On winning the Academy Award for Best International Feature Film for Gisaengchung (2019).
I came to Hollywood over 60 years ago and immediately fell in love with motion pictures. And it's a love affair that's lasted a lifetime. When I first arrived in Tinseltown, there were no cineplexes or multiplexes. No such thing as a Blockbuster or DVD. I was here before conglomerates owned the studios. Before pictures had special effects teams. And definitely before
box office results were reported like... Like baseball scores on the nightly news.

A movie doesn't come all on one big reel. It comes on a few. So someone has to be there to switch the projectors, at the exact moment that one reel ends and the next one begins. If you look for them, you can see little dots, come into the upper right corner of the screen. That's the cue for a changeover. He flips the projectors, movie keeps right on going and nobody in the audience has any idea.
