My Eye? It's A Genetic Thing. My Dad Had It And Now I Have It. You Know, I Just Found Out That It May Be Correctable A Little Bit, Because It Does Impair My Vision. When I Look Up, I Lose Sight In This Eye. I Think Maybe For Other People, It Informs The Way They See Me. But I Don't Really Think About This Eye, Other Than The Times People Talk About It, Or When People Take Photographs Of Me Sometimes They Might Say Stuff About It. I Don't Think It Makes Me Look Bad Or Anything. It Just Is.

My eye? It's a genetic thing. My dad had it and now I have it. You know, I just found out that it may be correctable a little bit, because it does impair my vision.

When I was a kid, the only way I saw movies was from the back seat of my family's car at the drive-in. It wasn't my reality to think I would be acting in movies, so receiving this honour tonight tells me that it's possible.
