Amy Adams last night thanked Hollywood's "wonderful female role models" during the Golden Globe Awards.
The actress took home Best Actress in a Motion Picture, Comedy or Musical for her Big Eyes role, and used her acceptance speech to thank those who set a good example for her daughter.
"I have so many wonderful female role models here tonight.
"It's just so wonderful that women today have such a strong voice and I have a four-and-a-half year old and I'm so grateful to have all the women in this room. You speak to her so loudly.
"She watches everything, and she sees everything and I'm just so, so grateful for all of you women in this room who have such a lovely, beautiful voice."
Female empowerment seemed to be the topic of the night, as Maggie Gyllenhaal admitted she was "turned on" by strong females in film and TV.
She went on to hail a "new wealth of roles" for women after picking up her own prize for her role in The Honourable Woman.
"I've noticed a lot of people talking about the wealth of roles for powerful women in television lately, and when I look around the room at the women who are in here and I think about the performances that I've watched this year, what I see actually are women who are sometimes powerful and sometimes not. Sometimes sexy, sometimes not. Sometimes honourable, sometimes not.
"And what I think is new is the wealth or roles for actual women in television and in film. That's what I think is revolutionary and evolutionary, and it's what's turning me on."
Julianne Moore recalled difficulties in the creation process for Still Alice, after accepting the gong for Best actress in a Motion Picture, Drama.
"When Lisa Genova wrote this book, she told me that no one wanted to make it into a movie because no one wanted to see a movie about a middle-aged woman.
"So I wanna thank the people who actually made the movie, James Brown and Lex Lutzus, Sony Classics and my good, good friends at Killer Films and this amazing cast, and our filmmakers, who, in the middle of their own crisis from a degenerate disease, ALS, decided they wanted to make movies."
