JESSICA'S SPEECH
She beat out Niecy Nash, Amanda Seyfried, Julia Garner, and Emily Blunt.

She dedicated her award to costar Michael Shannon and even shared a little advice she got from the late Philip Seymour Hoffman.
According to the actress, he visited one of her classes at the Juilliard School.
Jessica recalled on stage: "He told us all of his frustrating stories about auditions, and he encouraged us to keep going, even when we felt like no one was watching us.
"At the end of the talk, he said, 'I look forward to working with each of you.' It really shocked me because it was like he brought it into being. And a few years later, it came true, and I had the opportunity to do a play with him."
She went on: "I'm telling this story now because it reminds me of how powerful our mind is and that we are what our thoughts create.
"So, I just want to tell everyone who might be struggling at home, to all the actors that I get to meet: Keep going. You're one job away. I look forward to working with you. I'll see you on set."
