Kirk Douglas Award - Greta Gerwig Speech & Ryan Gosling Award Presentation

Thank you Greta for articulating the importance and impact Ryans portrayal and personifying a key role in millions of little girls childhood. This was more than just a movie. Thank you for the creation and perfect casting.

What a beautiful way to talk about another person.

I’ve loved him for years, it was so well deserved. He shined so bright and he seems so decent, I really hope he wins an Oscar.

Wow Greta. Beautiful speech. You’re a much needed gift to our world - especially now.

Beautiful speech 🎤

2023 had some of the greatest movies in the last decade or so. Barbie might not be in the top 10 best movies in the last ten years, maybe not even in the top 50 but it is definitely is in everybody’s top 10 most liked movie in recent memory. It’s such a delightful treat to experience.

Love greta ❤ 💋

I desperately need a screwball comedy starring Ryan and Greta
