And, having won the award, he thanked his childhood and the Academy. He beamed, “I’d like to thank my terrible childhood and the Academy — in that order.

Thanking his wife, Susan Downey, err “veterinarian,” the actor heralded: “She found me as a snarling rescue pet and loved me back to life. That’s why I’m here, thank you.
Here’s my little secret, I needed this job more than it needed me. Chris (Nolan) knew it, Emma (Thomas) made sure she surrounded me with one of the great casts and crews of all time — Emily, Cillian, Matt Damon, Blunt — it was fantastic and I stand here a before you a better man because of it,” said Downey, Jr.
“What we do is meaningful, and the stuff we decide to make is important,” the actor continued.

And, everyone was quite happy seeing him win. And it was seen that his competitor Ryan Gosling also clapped for him with a smile. But what gained the attention was the dog from Anatomy of a Fall.
