A Big part of my life, but not my whole life,” said the senior actor, who addressed the audience as clips of his most important acting moments played along. My life was made possible by my lovely wife Calista Flockhart, who supported my passions and my dreams. I’m grateful. Thank you. And you know, I love you, so does the audience. Thank you. You’ve given my life purpose and meaning, and I’m grateful for that,” the Indiana Jones -star added.
