OMG, you're kidding. He really won it? I wanted him to, but I didn't figure he had a chance in hell. Yay!

Great speech! (omg, there were HATE SIGNS at the OSCARS?)

BTW, who was the brown-haired man shown at 1:52?

That was Dustin Lance Black, the screenwriter for Milk. He also won an award tonight, his acceptance speech is here: http://thinkprogress.org/2009/02/22/milk-oscar/

Thank you for the link! I watched it live and was so happy that he won. Great speech. Sometimes actors give credit to runner ups -- for me it always is a bit awkward, but he dit it so well for Rourke, really classy.
