Frances McDormand uses her best actress speech for Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri to ask all the female nominees in the audience to stand up together. She tells the audience: 'Meryl, if you do it everybody else will … OK look around everybody ... because we all have stories to tell and projects we need to finance.' She then urges industry figures to speak to them in the next few days to make the projects happen. Her speech ended with: 'I have two words to leave with you tonight, ladies and gentlemen: inclusion rider.'
