While Affleck accepted the award, he thanked all of the cast and crew of Manchester By The Sea. He also thanked his kids for letting him travel around acting, and their mother for giving him every good acting idea he’s ever had.
As the music began playing, Affleck also snuck in a thank you to Denzel Washington, for showing him that “God is good.”
Congratulations to Casey Affleck and the whole Manchester By The Sea team!
