There are so many people I want to thank, from the BAFTA, my beloved producer, Thomas Langmann, the cast, Jean Dujardin, Bérénice Bejo, Harvey Weinstein, and my wife, Bérénice Bejo, I love you, and my friends, Thomas, Jean, and also cinematographer, Guillaume Schiffman, the composer, Ludovic Bource and everyone who worked on that movie.
