Sequence of emotions

In full promotion of the blockbuster, Harrison Ford had a very touching exchange with British journalist Ali Plumb for the BBC, as revealed by the latter on Twitter this Monday 19th June 2023.

It is a mix of adventure, humor and emotion. But what I admire most in these films is the depth and subtlety of the emotions.

The actor explained that he loved filming this last part, especially because he talks the passage of time and ageing. Themes in which she recognized herself. Harrison Ford then had tears in my eyes when Ali Plumb thanked him on behalf of all the fans and expressed his admiration and love. The star then launched himself to the journalist with emotion:

I have to thank you too, sincerely. It means a lot to me.
