Michael Douglas finished treatment for throat cancer last month and now he is starting to feel like himself again, his father Kirk tells Entertainment Tonight. Michael just won a court battle against ex-wife Diandra, who was seeking part of his 'Wall Street 2' earnings.

ET's press release follows:

November 20, 2010 (Los Angeles, CA) -- Hollywood legend Kirk Douglas offered ENTERTAINMENT TONIGHT an encouraging health update about his Oscar-winning son, Michael Douglas, who's battling throat cancer.


Michael's appetite is back and he's starting to feel feisty again, Kirk told ENTERTAINMENT TONIGHT at a black-tie dinner gala paying tribute to Harrison Ford in Santa Barbara on Friday.


At the event Harrison's longtime love, Calista Flockhart, watched on as Kirk presented Harrison with a special honor: the Santa Barbara International Film Festival's fifth annual Kirk Douglas Award for Excellence in Film.
