they forgot to copy the final part of the speech in spanish:

"A todos los que desde españa estén compartiendo este momento conmigo y sientan que esto también es de ellos, se lo dedico, y a todos los actores de mi país. Muchisimas gracias."

"To all the people in spain who are sharing this moment with me and feel that this owns to them as well, and to all the actors of my country. Thank you very much."

(sorry for my english, as usual!)


Nobody expects the spanish inquisition!

Her speech at the Independent Spirit Awards was beyond adorable.


"The gods who nurse this universe think little of mortals' cares. They sit in crowds on exclusive clouds and laugh at our love affairs. I might have had a real romance if they'd given me a chance. I loved him, but he didn't love me. I wanted him, but he didn't want me. Then the gods had a spree and indulged in another whim. Now he loves me, but I don't love him." - Cole Porter

Since I happened to go to Avenue Q Oscar night, I missed some of the telecast. Luckily the only award I was excited about that I missed was Best Supporting Actress (for once I was thankful these award shows drag on and on). Well that and Wall-E winning Best Animated Film. But luckily for me by the time I got to my hotel Penelope's lovely speech for her well-deserved award was posted on YT. So yay.

Your English is fine, POLisPOL, but I can't but help but to tweak the translation a bit:

"To everyone in Spain who is sharing this moment with me right now and who feels that this too is theirs, I dedicate this, and to all the actors from my country. Thank you SO much."


Salve, Regina, Mater misericordiae
Vita, dulcedo, et spes nostra
Salve, Salve Regina
Ad te clamamus exsules filii Eva
Ad te suspiramus, gementes et flentes
O clemens O pia
