"I just want to say to Billie and Finneas that you have delivered the Barbie love bomb. You've saved the movies, last summer. All of our jobs. You've delivered joy to countless generations and genders of people, and you should surf that wave, kids — until you are old and deserve to be jaded like me."

Carey Mulligan

While presenting Carey Mulligan with her award, friend Meryl Streep said, "If you were trying to identify the one essential quality that Carey brings to the wide and wildly varied characters she's played, it really is located in what she withholds from us. I mean, the emotion in her characters is always palpable and full and felt and, but it's often tucked away and maybe disguised or hidden in reserve. I'm thinking not only of her gorgeous work in Maestro, but also in Promising Young Woman and She Said and The Dig and Mudbound and Suffragette. It's that emotion that's tamped down and it's underground. It's like the smaller tremors that we get here in California, not really measurable. Nothing shakes, but you're aware that the earth is roiling below, and when that fall cracks open, she could bring your house down."
