It was indeed myself. Playing the part of Travis Bickle, I was nominated for an AA - but didn't get it (*sob, sob*).
My dear friend Martin (Scorsese) and I were both honoured as Best Director and Best Actor by the New York Film Critics, and the film won the Golden Palm at the Cannes Film Festival.
Could I just say "Hi" to electricblue? She's such a sweetie !!
