A Profitable Oscar-Winning Speech
I was delighted to come back throughout this brief clip featuring Ari Sandel. As a movie director, Sandel received an Academy Award in 2005 in the class, Greatest Short Film - Stay Action.
His film, West Bank Story, is a Romeo and Juliet musical comedy that takes place among the many falafel stands of the West Bank. (By the best way, how can you not like a movie with the tagline: “A little singing, a little bit dancing, numerous hummus”?)
On this short clip, Sandel talks about the entire points that he wished to mention in his acceptance speech within the event that he gained, in addition to a few of the pressure that he was getting from sympathetic exterior sources. He only had 60 seconds to talk, and I believe that he did a masterful job.
