ADAM McKAY'S "VICE" IS SUCH A FILM.

SHREDDING THE TRADITIONAL BIOPIC STRUCTURE WITH PASSION

IT HIS WHOLE CAREER -- DICK CHENEY.

BRILLIANTLY ACTED, THE FILM IS A LESSON ABOUT THE PAST THAT

SERVES AS A WARNING ABOUT THE PRESENT AND THE FUTURE.

WAR, GREED, TRUTH, LIES, FATHERHOOD, LOVE, TORTURE, AND

BETRAYAL ALL SWIRL AROUND IN "VICE" WITH A HARD BACKBEAT AND

A KILLER BASSLINE. SOME WILL DIG IT.

SOME WILL COVER THEIR EARS. BUT EVERYONE WILL DO THE ONE

THING THE MOVIE BEGS US TO DO, REACT.

AFRICAN HERO, BUT HIS STORY AND HIS APPEAL ARE UNIVERSAL.

I KNOW THIS PERSONALLY, BECAUSE OF ALL THE PEOPLE WHO CONSTANTLY

COME UP TO ME AND SAY, "WAKANDA FOREVER."

"WANKANDA FOREVER." IN FRANCE, PEOPLE SAY, "HELLO,

TREVOR NOAH, HOW YOU SAY, WAKANDA FOREVER?"

EVEN BACKSTAGE, MEL GIBSON CAME UP TO ME, LIKE, "WAKANDA

FOREVER." HE SAID ANOTHER WORD TO ME AFTER

THAT, BUT THE WAKANDA PART WAS NICE.

GROWING UP AS A YOUNG BOY IN WAKANDA, I WOULD SEE KING

T'CHALLA FLYING OVER OUR VILLAGE AND HE WOULD REMIND ME OF A

GREAT XHOSA PHRASE. [ SPEAKING FOREIGN LANGUAGE ]

WHICH MEANS, "IN TIMES LIKE THESE, WE ARE STRONGER WHEN WE

FIGHT TOGETHER THAN WHEN WE TRY TO FIGHT APART."

THANK YOU. THANK YOU.

THANK YOU. WHEN I FIRST SAW

"BLACKKKLANSMAN," I WAS STUNNED AND WAS VERY EXCITED, AND WAS

VERY MOVED. IT HAD EVERYTHING A GREAT FILM

SHOULD HAVE. IT WAS SO REAL, SO FUNNY, AND

YET SO HORRIFYING, BECAUSE IT WAS BASED ON THE TRUTH.

AND TRUTH IS ESPECIALLY PRECIOUS THESE DAYS.

[ APPLAUSE ] I HAD TO -- THANK YOU.

SO, I HAD TO TWEET ABOUT IT, YOU KNOW, ABOUT HOW GOOD IT WAS.

I AM FOREVER IN YOUR DEBT. [ APPLAUSE ]

MY CREW, AND MY CAST. I LOVE YOU.

YOU ARE MY EQUALS, MY BETTERS. I COULD HAVE NEVER BEEN HERE

WITHOUT YOU. I THINK ABOUT WHAT IT WOULD HAVE

BEEN LIKE TO TELL LITTLE BUBBA RAMI THAT ONE DAY THIS MIGHT

HAPPEN TO HIM. AND I THINK HIS CURLY-HAIRED

LITTLE MIND WOULD BE BLOWN. HE WAS STRUGGLING WITH HIS

IDENTITY, TRYING TO FIGURE HIMSELF OUT.

AND I THINK TO ANYONE STRUGGLING WITH THEIRS, AND TRYING TO

DISCOVER THEIR VOICE, LISTEN, WE MADE A FILM ABOUT A GAY MAN, AN

IMMIGRANT, WHO LIVED HIS LIFE JUST UNAPOLOGETICALLY HIMSELF.

THE FACT THAT I'M CELEBRATING HIM AND THIS STORY WITH YOU

TONIGHT IS PROOF THAT WE'RE LONGING FOR STORIES LIKE THIS.

I AM THE SON OF IMMIGRANTS FROM EGYPT, A FIRST-GENERATION

AMERICAN. [ APPLAUSE ]

AND PART OF MY STORY IS BEING WRITTEN RIGHT NOW.

AND I COULD NOT BE MORE GRATEFUL TO EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU,

AND EVERYONE WHO BELIEVED IN ME FOR THIS MOMENT.
