I have been a huge fan of Kate Winslet since Sense and Sensibility. This win catapults her to the top of her field and I wish her the best and hope it opens many doors to even greater accomplishments.

I also have to offer my congratulations to the family of Heath Ledger, may this Oscar help to let all his works transcend time.
