He then raved about the real-life legacy of his titular character Richard. "Richard Williams is a dreamer like no one you've ever known," said Smith. "He has a power of belief that borders on insanity and sometimes tips over the border, which is absolutely necessary to take something from impossible to possible."

"But when I got the call and you watched the movie and you said you loved it, I just want to say thank you very much ... It was my deepest pleasure to honor your family and to tell your story to the world. Thank you all," Smith concluded.
