I was not expecting this at all, truly, Chalamet said in his speech.
Ill start by thanking my mother, who Im here with tonight.
Shes been working at Actors Equity for 40 years.
Still, he said, the truth is, this was five and a half years of my life.
But this team gave it their all, he continued, so Im deeply grateful to them.
I know were in a subjective business, but the truth is, Im really in pursuit of greatness.
Im inspired by the greats; Im inspired by the greats here tonight.
Hell compete in the same category in his second outing at the Academy Awards next Sunday, March 2.
