Jennifer Garner and husband Ben Affleck supporting Matt Damon


28 March 2010

Jennifer Garner and husband Ben Affleck support their close friend Matt Damon at the 2010 American Cinematheque Annual Award Presentation at The Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles to honor Damon for his film and philanthropic work. A taped version of the event, "Hollywood Salutes Matt Damon: An American Cinematheque Tribute," will air in April on ABC.

Jen wore a gorgeous, strapless J. Mendel dress, Brian Atwood pumps and a Bulgari clutch. She was seen rubbing shoulders with producer Harvey Weinstein and TV personality Lauren Sanchez.

So, a lifetime achievement award for an actor who hasn't even turned 40?  According to American Cinematheque, who's been hosting similar events since 1986 to raise money for their cinemas and public programming operations (past recipients include Michael Douglas, Mel Gibson, Tom Cruise, George Clooney and Julia Roberts), it's more of a "mid-career" award. But that didn't stop Jimmy Kimmel from lampooning the proceedings in his opening monologue: "They must be running out of stars for awards. Who will we honor next year? Vanessa Hudgens?"
