	AFI Life Achievement Award (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The AFI Life Achievement Award was established by the Board of Directors of the American Film Institute on February 26, 1973 to honor a single individual for his or her lifetime contribution to enriching American culture through motion pictures and television.
		Director John Ford was the unanimous choice of the Board of Trustees for the first Award as he "clearly stands preeminent in the history of motion pictures." President Richard M. Nixon attended the gala dinner at which Ford was presented the Award on March 31, 1973.
		The Board of Trustees later amended the "test of time" requirement to enable the AFI Life Achievement Award to be presented to individuals with shorter careers, such as Tom Hanks, who at age 46, was the youngest recipient ever, and Steven Spielberg, who received the Award at age 49.

	The Raiders Realm - AFI Life Achievement Award - George Lucas
		I think receiving the life-time achievement award has to be one of the greastest honors, and George Lucas definately deserves it.
		Overall, the AFI tribute to George Lucas was a fun and at times touching show, I sure wish I could have been there (just like as a thousand other fans would have as well).
		From a "song and dance" number with William Shatner to Carrie Fisher’s rant about the effects on her life from being dressed up in a metal bikini and sitting around all day with a giant slug, it was quite a show.

	EI > Columns > Musings of an Actor: Is Tom Hanks Worthy Of The AFI Life Achievement Award?
		In recent years the AFI has seen fit to award a few people I’ve honestly felt were not truly worthy of the honour.
		If Tom Hanks were the oldest successful actor in the world still living then an argument might be made for his receiving the AFI award, but the fact is there are a lot of artists out there who are for more deserving.
		Remember, the AFI missed their opportunity to honour the great Robert Mitchum, a performer who almost single-handedly defined film noir (or at least cemented it into our consciousness).
