Ford followed his intuition against all odds, and became one of Hollywood’s top paid stars with many classic hits, such as Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Han Solo, The Fugitive, Air Force One, What Lies Beneath, Clear and Present Danger, and many others. Harrison ford was determined to become a great actor despite his critics, and  continued to prove them wrong with an extraordinary successful acting career that has stretched for more than two decades.
