Wins Oscar
Penn wins the Academy Award for Best Actor in his portrayal of ex-convict Jimmy Markum in Clint Eastwood’s Mystic River. Nicole Kidman presents the award.
Thank you. If there’s one thing that actors know–other than that there weren’t any WMDs–it’s that there is no such thing as “best” in acting. And that’s proven by these great actors that I was nominated with . . . .
