They probably never expected any award let alone an Oscar and their gratitude and pure joy in winning made my evening. Kudos to the Oscar folks for allowing the girl to come back and give her speech after they cut the mic on her before she had a chance for her thanks. I don't think I had ever heard applause for that category the way the audience applauded their win last night. It was a great moment for them.

I saw some of it, and this was my favorite part. When they got up to accept the award, the guy said his piece and then the women walked to the mic but before she could start the damn orchestra starting playing. Bastards! It was so rude. So, John Steward came on after the break and invited her back out to say her thanks. It was very sweet and I love that they won the award, they def. seemed like the type that deserve it- they were SO overwhelmed!

EDIT: oh, I just saw that you already descibed it. Well, it was a great moment
