Lot Essay


Adrien Brody...seemed to sum up nearly all the relevant emotions at once. He came to the stage in elation, kissed Halle Berry, who presented the award, and then reflected tearfully on what his role in the The Pianist...had taught him... And then, having squared the circle of public opinion, he put his arm around Ms. Berry and walked off the stage.
—"Oscar in Wartime", The New York Times, 25 March 2003, p. A16
