Harrison Ford said he was "deeply moved and humbled" as he received an honorary Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival.
The veteran US actor, 80, was presented with the accolade ahead of the world debut screening of his new film Indiana Jones And The Dial Of Destiny.
Ford became audibly emotional, telling the audience: "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 but not all of my life.
"My life has been enabled by my lovely wife, supporting my passion and my dreams, and I'm grateful."
Addressing the audience directly, he continued: "And I love you too.
"You’ve given my life purpose and meaning and I’m grateful for that. So grateful to have the opportunity to work with others like … Phoebe (Waller-Bridge) and Mads (Mikkelsen).
"I am deeply moved by this honour, and humbled – but I got a movie you gotta see. So let me get out of the way."
Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny opens in cinemas on Wednesday 28 June.
