Jude Law's Film Work Honored
Jude Law received one of France’s top honors for his contribution to film on Thursday morning at the French Embassy in London, England.
French ambassador Gerard Errera awarded Jude, 34, with the Chevalier des Arts et des Lettres medal and described Jude as “simply one of the most talented actors today”.
After receiving the medal, Jude thanked the ambassador for his “wonderful words” but was too stunned to say much: “I am speechless. My mum and dad have lived in France for 15 years so really it is a country I share as my home.”
Said Jude‘s father, Peter Law, after the ceremony: [We are] very, very proud. What is significant is that the French have recognized Jude in so many different facets. They seem to have a whole view of him as a man and that is what is so touching.”
Jude was recently honored with the Cesar film award for his impressive body of film work.
