Hilary Swank was crowned Oscar's® golden girl last night as she took home her second Academy Award® for her role in Million Dollar Baby!
Oprah: Was it as good the second time?
Hilary: Yes. It was...I'm just as speechless and in awe. I can't believe it. I can't believe it. Seriously. Still, it hasn't hit me. My first one hasn't even hit me!
Oprah: That was a role of a lifetime.
Hilary: I thought with Boys Don't Cry it was a role of a lifetime. And I thought once in a lifetime. Once. But to get that other opportunity [with Million Dollar Baby]...I guess I try and take it all in.
