JERRY WEINTRAUB: On the way in tonight and for the past year or so, I've been asked a question over and over and over again, and the question has been, "How do you do all of this?" Well, I don't do it all. Everybody else does it all, and I get all of the credit. So Greg Jacobs, one of the greatest producers I've ever met, is going to be ?? you'll see him up here a lot over the years. Susie, my other half, Richard LaGravenese, and Michael Polaire, that's the team, great team. We got Steven Soderbergh to do this movie. Richard wrote a fantastic script. We got Michael and Matt. It was gold, and we took it to the gold standard. Richard Plepler, Mike Lombardo, Len Amato at HBO, Nancy Lesser, I love you all at HBO. There's nothing like you guys. You are the best in the world. Thank you very, very much.
