Amy Sedaris took a tumble Thursday night at the National Board of Review awards.
Sedaris, 62, had presented the best actor award to Paul Giamatti for his role in "The Holdovers" when she dramatically fell while exiting the stage. However, the "Elf" actress remained on the floor as Giamatti left the podium to attend to her.
Once Giamatti realized the fall had been intentional, he returned to the podium to finish his acceptance speech.
"NBR Best Actor winner Paul Giamatti literally floored presenter Amy Sedaris with his nuanced comic performance in Alexander Payne's ‘THE HOLDOVERS’!" the National Board of Review shared on Instagram along with photos of the moment.

The actor dedicated his Golden Globes win to teachers, along with creatives who worked on the film.
"Thank you, Golden Globes," Giamatti said. "Thank you to [director] Alexander Payne, Alexander the great, [who] for some mysterious reason continues to have enormous faith in me and why? I don’t know why."
"It’s a movie about a teacher," he added. "I play a teacher, my whole family, they’re teachers, all of them going back generations. Teachers are good people, gotta respect them. They do a good thing. It’s a tough job, so this is for teachers as well."
