— an excerpt from Rosamund Pike’s acceptance speech after she won the award for best performance by an actress in a motion picture, comedy, or musical at the 2021 Golden Globes for her role in “I Care A Lot.” In the film, Pike portrays a court-appointed legal guardian who uses the conservatorship system’s loopholes to find ways to defraud her elderly clients.
