THE VIKING FIVE Sven van der Hart ACCEPTANCE SPEECH Wow. What can I say? Wow. I want to thank the Academy for recognizing a meaningless, independent project. Wait, wait. Steve Martin is flashing that my time is up, but I have to thank so many others. I feel honoured to stand here in front of you, my colleagues, my friends. I have to thank my crew, everyone in the art department, set decoration department, construction, paint props, the excellent catering company across the road. It was a huge collaborative effort and I share this with all of you. Thank you. Thank you, Vikings, for this job well done. Without you this film would not have been the same. OK, OK. Give me one more second. Thanks mum and dad, for being so patient with me. Thanks my filmcompany, Navigation, for believing and thanks Collectobil for bringing this film to the world. And I want to thank the God of the Arts, Brage, for his blessings. I hope this award is an inspiration for others. Thank you.Thank you.
