00:09 -Are we shooting now? -Oh, sorry, yes.
00:11 We have started to shoot, right?
00:13 Yeah, yeah, yeah. We are.
00:14 -Nobody tells me. -I'm sorry!
00:17 You've known me too long. Now it starts.
00:19 [laughter]
00:21 [music]
00:22 I'm so honored to introduce
00:24 not just one of the greatest actors of her generation,
00:28 but perhaps of any generation,
00:30 Miss Leve Ulman.
00:32 [applause]
00:34 There's a very, very short list of actors
00:37 who can affect you the way Leve Ulman did,
00:41 which is just to sort of invite you
00:45 right into their emotional life.
00:47 She celebrates brokenness in a way,
00:51 because when something breaks and is healed,
00:54 it's far more beautiful.
00:56 I think often people who don't know her work
01:00 as a director or as a writer or haven't met Leve as a person
01:03 can think about her as being Bergman's muse,
01:07 but she is a force of nature unto herself.
01:11 [music]
01:15 We are together. There is no difference.
01:19 An artist is a citizen with a megaphone.
01:24 And to lend one's voice to the voiceless
01:29 can be quite powerful.
01:31 I think we're alike in that life is what we're here for.
01:36 [music]
01:38 I do not want to arrive at the end of life
01:42 and then be asked what I made of it
01:44 and have to answer, "I acted."
01:49 [music]
01:51 I want to say that I loved and I was mystified.
01:59 It was a joy sometimes and a new grief.
02:05 And I would like to do it all again.
