IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: Harrison Ford surprised with honorary Palme d'Or at Cannes Film Festival

After an introduction held at the Grand Theatre Lumière on Thursday, the Indiana Jones star was announced as a surprise recipient of the festival's honorary Palme d'Or award. The Palme d'Or is a competitive award usually reserved for the festival's best film, but an honorary or non-competitive Palme d'Or can be awarded to directors or actors for their body of work. "I am pleased and honoured, but I got a movie you gotta see," Ford said upon accepting the award, referencing his upcoming film Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny.
