Thank you, Tom Holland, for sharing your time with us as host of the evening, for your support and enthusiasm for the film, and for moderating a fantastic conversation that you made feel so personal. It's been great to be by your side from the beginning, Tom. And see you grow, as an artist and as a person. I love you my friend.
