It was a big night for ‘Licorice Pizza’ at the National Board of Review Gala. So, naturally, Chris Rock celebrated Paul Thomas Anderson with a wild, expletive-laden roast.
the latter of whom was on hand to present Anderson with his first award of the night, best director. Rock was one of the night’s rowdy highlights, introducing Anderson with an expletive-laden, five-minute speech in which he roasted the director, his cast, and the National Board of Review itself, injecting the night with a much-needed boost of unpredictable energy.
“I’ve come here for Paul Thomas Anderson—a person who’s never cast me in shit!” Rock exclaimed. “Nothing! Not even to wash his fuckin’ car.” He continued, sayingwas the best movie he’d seen all year, though he’d only seen a handful of films this season. “It’s a good thing I’m not hosting the Oscars this year,” cracked the comedian who has in fact hosted the ceremony twice, most recently in 2016.
Rock continued, shouting out the film’s cast, including, “What’s her name? Alana Haim’s in the movie! She’s great.” He also mentioned young Hoffman, whom he’s known for years through his late father, Philip Seymour Hoffman. “Cooper Hoffman, fuckin’ nepotism at its fuckin’ best!goddamnit,” Rock joked as the audience roared with nervous laughter. “My father couldn’t get me shit.”about the war in Ukraine. “Sean fuckin’ Penn, who I know has something to do with this war,” Rock quipped.
Then he finally brought Anderson to the stage. “Thank you very much, everybody. I really appreciate it. Chris Rock, ladies and gentlemen,” Anderson said, delivering perhaps his shortest acceptance speech ever and quickly exiting the stage.and held at Cipriani 42nd Street, was an overall speedy affair, clocking in at just under two hours once the speeches started going.
