After each offered the other the usual congratulations -- Bale won best supporting film actor for The Fighter, Rush won as part of King's Speech's ensemble -- Rush held up his statue and said, "It's heavy."

To which Bale replied: "Yeah, it's fucking heavy. Are you gonna carry that thing around with you all night?"

Rush simply shrugged, as if to say: "I don't know. What are we supposed to do?"
