"I want to thank my wife who is the reason why I`m standing here," Affleck said after claiming the prize on stage, reports dailymail.co.uk. "I adore you. I love you so much. Thanks for sitting through this. You are my everything. Thank you," he added. The actor-filmmaker was overwhelmed with his nomination for the best director itself.
