Harrison Ford was left in tears as he paid tribute to his wife Calista Flockhart after accepting an award at the 29th Annual Critics' Choice Awards on Sunday.
Just one week after the Golden Globes, the Critics' Choice Awards took centre stage last night, and it was full of talking points.
The latest edition of the awards show was held at the Barker Hangar at Santa Monica Airport, and honored some of the biggest film and TV achievements in the past year.

And one of the more emotional moments of the evening came when Harrison Ford took to the stage to accept the Career Achievement award.
The 81-year-old was joined by wife Calista Flockhart, 59, who he gave a kiss to before making his way to the stage in Santa Monica.
Ford received a standing ovation from the room after a video played highlighting some of his biggest roles and achievements in Hollywood.

After he accepted his award, Ford said: "First of all, I'm really happy to be here tonight to see what our business is turning into, and all of the talented people who are getting opportunities that probably wouldn't have existed in the early part of my career.
"I'm here because of a combination of luck and the work of wonderful writers, directors and filmmakers. I feel enormously lucky. I'm happy for this honor, and I appreciate it very much."
The Indiana Jones star then spoke about his wife as he thanked her for the 'support'.
"I want to thank my lovely wife, Calista Flockhart, who supports me when I need a lot of support," he said. "And I need a lot of support."

Both Ford and Flockhart appeared to tear up as the actor mentioned his marriage.
"I'm deeply happy to have had the opportunities that I've had, and I'm grateful," he said. "I won't take any more of your time. Thank you."
Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny director James Mangold presented Ford with his award on Sunday evening, paying tribute to the legendary actor in the process.

Mangold said: "A hypergiant is so big that 5 billion of our suns can be contained within it, and they're so weighty that they pull other heavenly bodies toward them.
"Of course, Harrison Ford is a star, but I submit tonight that he is a variable hypergiant."
The director continued: "A star so big, he contains multitudes. A star so unique he attracts other stars, a star so bright he has warmed each of our lives in this room, in our audience and, likely, on this planet."
