It was a special night for the American actress as she was honoured with the Hollywood Foreign Language Film Award for her Netflix drama, First They Killed My Father.

She continued: "This film was not made to focus on the horrors of the past, but to celebrate the resilience, kindness and talent of the Cambodian people. Most of all, this film is my way of saying thank you to Cambodia. Without Cambodia I may never have become a mother. Part of my heart is and will always be in this country. And part of this country is always with me: Maddox." Meanwhile, other attendees on the night included Dakota Johnson, Carey Mulligan, Viola Davis, Amy Adams and Kate Winslet, who took home the Hollywood Actress gong for Woody Allen's film Wonder Wheel.
