Wes Anderson Accepts National Board of Review Award With Stop-Motion Speech

Wes Anderson continues to excel in the indie arena, and doing things with a fresh perspective. On Tuesday he accepted his Special Achievement in Filmmaking award for “Fantastic Mr. Fox” from the National Board of Review – with a stop-motion acceptance speech. Seriously – that is pretty darn cool to use the same animation that won you an award to accept it. Bravo Mr. Anderson.
