80th Academy Awards show

Director Ethan Coen accepts the Oscar for best director from presenter Martin Scorsese for the work of him and his brother, Joel Coen (not pictured), on "No Country for Old Men." "What we do now doesn't feel that much different from what we were doing then," Joel Coen said. "We're very thankful to all of you out there for continuing to let us play in our corner of the sandbox." Mark J. Terrill / AP
