Full of delighted surprise, acting and directing legend Jodie Foster picked up a Golden Globe tonight for her starring role in the political thriller The Mauritanian.

Foster accepted the award while sitting on her couch with her wife, Alexsandra Hedison. The pair kissed immediately after the win was announced. "I love my wife, thank you Alex!" she said while petting her dog. She and Hedison married in 2014.

In The Mauritanian, Foster played Nancy Hollander, a lawyer who represents one of the men accused of planning and organizing the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center, Mohamedou Ould Slahi. The film is based on Slahi's book Guantanamo Diary.
