In a surprise appearance, legendary actor Daniel Day-Lewis emerged from retirement to present renowned filmmaker Martin Scorsese with the award for best director at the 95th National Board of Review Awards. The event, held in midtown Manhattan on Thursday night, celebrated Scorsese's latest project, 'Killers of the Flower Moon,' which swept the evening by also taking home the award for best film.
The return of Daniel Day-Lewis, who famously announced his retirement from acting after the release of 'Phantom Thread' in 2017, added an extra layer of excitement to the star-studded gala at Cipriani's 42nd Street. Day-Lewis, who had previously collaborated with Scorsese in films such as 'Gangs of New York' and 'The Age of Innocence,' expressed his admiration for the director during his heartfelt presentation speech.
