“They say when you’re about to die, you see your life flash before your eyes. And I just saw my life flash before my eyes – a great part of my life,' Harrison Ford said.
Raucous applause resounded through the theater as Ford was handed his statuette. “I’m very touched,” the Hollywood icon said as he began his speech in the packed theater. “They say when you’re about to die, you see your life flash before your eyes. And I just saw my life flash before my eyes – a great part of my life.” The “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny” actor appeared to get emotional when he thanked his “lovely” wife, actress Calista Flockhart.
“I’m deeply moved by this honor, and humbled – but I’ve got a movie you’ve got to see. It’s right behind me,” he said, pointing to the movie screen draped in red velvet curtains. Ford received the honorary Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival before the hotly anticipated first screening of “Dial of Destiny.” It’s the 80-year-old’s fifth and final “Indiana Jones” movie, a franchise in which he’s starred as the titular character since 1981’s “Raiders of the Lost Ark.
