Boston's favorite son, Ben Affleck, turns the big 5-0 today! The Argo actor had quite the year after getting engaged to and marrying Jennifer Lopez, working non-stop on upcoming films and making sure to spend quality time with his three kids Violet, 16, Seraphina, 13, and Samuel, 10, as well as stepchildren Emme and Maximilian, 14.

Despite how over the top his life has become, Affleck has never lost his Bostonian roots. Paying homage to Boston, the Oscar winning star has set many of his films in his hometown and takes pride in telling stories about the eclectic East Coast city.

"Look, if not for 'Good Will Hunting,' I’d just be a guy, never mind a guy from Boston," he told the Boston Globe earlier this year. "When my acting career got cold and it was hard for me to get a job, I wanted to direct, and I wanted to do something I knew a lot about, so I picked Boston. I picked 'Gone Baby Gone' and then I picked 'The Town.'"

Even when Affleck is not in Beantown, he constantly represents exactly what Massachusetts is all about. From rocking his Red Sox apparel to grabbing his morning cup of Dunkin' Donuts or stepping outside for a smoke break, the actor has never lost his sense of home.
