The world just witnessed the softer side of Harrison Ford as he became a bit emotional discussing the final installment of the Indiana Jones franchise.
Promoting Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, Ford sat down with BBC Radio 1's Ali Plumb and shared what he believes makes the Indy films so special to fans.
Aside from the actors and and directors, Ford contributed the resonance to emotion.
“I think the thing that I most admire about them is the depth and subtlety of the emotion, and the importance of emotion in these films."
He continued:
“As this last one concerns age and frailty and changing nature of life, it was especially compelling to me because I am of that age and I wanted it to feel real for the audience."
"I wanted them to see the complexity of that experience with someone they’ve spent 40 years with.”
Plumb then expressed a sentiment on behalf of all fans that caught the actor completely off guard.
“Can I just say on behalf of all the fans, thank you. It’s been such an adventure.”
“We love you so much. I don’t want to make you blush or anything, but you mean the world to us and thank you.”
Ford, fighting tears, emotionally replied:
“And I must say to you thank you sincerely.”
“It means the world to me.”

\u201cSo I think I made Harrison Ford cry \ud83e\udd72 (a bit) \n\nHe certainly made me cry, I'll be honest with you\u201d— Ali Plumb (@Ali Plumb) 1687175095
Plumb shared on Twitter that he, too, became quite emotional.
\u201cNeedless to say, I had to wrap the interview up immediately after that\n\nThank you to everyone who's reached out to say how much this has hit home \ud83d\ude4f\n\nIt truly is my sincere pleasure to do my frankly absurd job and this has to be absolutely up there with the very top moments ever\u201d— Ali Plumb (@Ali Plumb) 1687175095
And he certainly wasn't alone.

\u201c@AliPlumb Can we just not because that felt like goodbye and none of us were ready for it\u201d— Ali Plumb (@Ali Plumb) 1687175095
\u201c@AliPlumb @JediLore And now I\u2019m crying. Lovely.\u201d— Ali Plumb (@Ali Plumb) 1687175095
\u201c@AliPlumb You two definitely made ME cry.\n\nThank you, Ali, for telling him for all of us how much we love him and how much his films mean to us.\u201d— Ali Plumb (@Ali Plumb) 1687175095
Many shared Ford's impact on their lives.
\u201c@AliPlumb Harrison if it weren\u2019t for you, Star Wars, blade runner, Indiana jokes and all the rest would not be the same. You have made these films extra special and holds strong to my influence and desire for content creation and getting a film production degree. Thank you, honestly.\u201d— Ali Plumb (@Ali Plumb) 1687175095
\u201c@AliPlumb @greg_jenner Raiders literally changed my life\u2019s path, when it came out in 1981. I was 8 yo, & I left the theater knowing I wanted to be an archaeologist. Even after finding out it wasn\u2019t as exciting, I still wanted it. \nI was so lucky to be able to work in that field for over 15 years! \ud83e\udd79\u201d— Ali Plumb (@Ali Plumb) 1687175095
\u201c@AliPlumb Aww, bless him. A true star, great actor and a huge part of both my childhood and adulthood. Thank you Mr Ford \ud83c\udf1f\ud83c\udf1f\ud83c\udf1f\u201d— Ali Plumb (@Ali Plumb) 1687175095
\u201c@AliPlumb Oh wow \ud83d\ude22 I loved the Indy movies when I was a kid and then we introduced our children to Indiana Jones and my youngest become obsessed. So much so that all through his younger years he was known as Indy. He\u2019s woven into our family history \ud83d\ude0d #IndianaJones\u201d— Ali Plumb (@Ali Plumb) 1687175095
\u201c@AliPlumb AMAZING. I named my son Harrison (b.1995) largely because of Indy and Han, and this guy still means the world to me 40+ years after Raiders first blew my tiny mind. Thanks for sharing, Ali!\u201d— Ali Plumb (@Ali Plumb) 1687175095
