I Love You More Than Rainbows

Was a line uttered at the Academy Awards this evening. The utterer had just won an Oscar, and was breathless at the microphone. First, he thanked a lot of people involved with the film, and then with a large sweep of the arm not clasping the heavy award, he looked out over the crowd and thanked his wife: "I love you more than rainbows."

He was escorted offstage after that by two ladies in evening gowns. I can't remember what his name was, or what category he won for, but I do remember the slightly cheesy, hasty sentence he threw out towards the audience for his wife.
