Nicole Kidman was the recipient of the AFI Life Achievement Award on April 27, the highest honor given by the American Film Institute. So naturally, Kidman’s famous friends and collaborators, like Reese Witherspoon, Meryl Streep, Naomi Watts, and her husband Keith Urban, all lined up to honor her at the awards gala. Also amongst those showering Kidman in praise throughout the evening was Morgan Freeman, who recreated Kidman’s iconic AMC ad to celebrate the actress and her illustrious career in film, as seen in a clip shared by Deadline.

Freeman walked into an empty movie theater, just we all see Kidman do whenever we watch a film at AMC, but rather than speaking poetically about the joy of the movies — Freeman spoke more specifically about Nicole Kidman in movies. “Somehow she makes heartbreak feel good in a place like this,” he said, as the screen in the parody showed some of Kidman’s career highlights, like Moulin Rouge! and Eyes Wide Shut (a shot without Tom Cruise, of course). After the spoof played, Freeman took the stage to pay tribute to Kidman further, noting that Moulin Rouge! is one of his favorite films and singing a line from Elton John’s “Your Song” to the actress — because, like AMC, she makes movies better.
