At the 67th Annual Golden Globes, Martin Scorsese was given the Award for Lifetime Achievement, which was presented to him by Robert De Niro and Leonardo DiCaprio. During De Niro's speech, he made a mildly funny joke. With perfect timing, the camera cut to Brendan Fraser, who gave an awe-inspiring reaction.
