Winning the Lifetime Achievement Award + First Emmy Award Nomination to Prove Forever Active Duty

Harrison Ford (83), who has played at the center of Hollywood for more than 60 years, won the SAG-AFTRA Lifetime Achievement Award at the 32nd Actor Awards (formerly SAG Awards) held at the Shine Auditorium in Los Angeles on the 1st (local time).

But when he received the award, he said this. "Isn't it a little weird to get a lifetime achievement award at half the career point? I'm still active."

Laughter broke out in the audience. And a standing ovation poured in.

His joke that it's too early to win a lifetime achievement award may not actually be wrong.

Ford is currently nominated for his first Emmy Award in the Apple TV+ series "Shrinking," playing Dr. Paul Rose, a psychotherapist with Parkinson's disease. The fact that he was nominated for an Emmy Award for the first time at the age of 83 proves what he said.

It was a close friend and actor Woody Harrelson who put Ford on stage. "Ford is a master actor, pilot, and carpenter who built his own house," Harrelson said after joking that he was "out to celebrate Leonardo DiCaprio." I can't even handle the French press coffee machine," he said, praising his friend generously. He added, "This is a lifetime achievement award, and he lived a really full life."

On stage, Ford maintained his characteristic dry humor while shedding tears. "The actors in this room came to win the award for their great work, but I came to win the award just because I'm alive," he said, then continued with his sincere words.

"I was getting lost in college. My school grades were terrible, and I felt isolated. Then I met people who were doing plays. They were my people, after all, who I once thought were nerds."

Contrary to humble words, his history is by no means light. After 15 years of working as an actor and carpenter for his debut, he became a global star with "Star Wars," and has never stopped since then. Ford also thanked George Lucas and Steven Spielberg, who played critical roles in his success, and Fred Ruth, the already deceased casting director, and Patricia McQueeny, the manager, and held back tears. The audience also held their breath when they said, "The two are not around anymore, but I think they're here together tonight."

"We share the privilege of working in a world of ideas, empathy and imagination. Sometimes they create entertainment, sometimes they create art. If you're lucky, you make them both at the same time."

"The lost child of the next generation—leaving the door open for those children looking for their place. "That's what I'm supposed to do now," Harrison Ford said. "I'm a very lucky guy. I'm still working on this.We concluded our acceptance speech with "
