Santa Barbara Film Fest Awards Prizes Include ‘26.2 to Life,’ ‘I Like Movies,’ ‘A Bunch of Amateurs,’ 'A Man'
“Argentina 1985’s” director Santiago Mitre spent over two years researching his film on the story of the public prosecutors who took on the country’s brutal dictators. He said his film was able to get the audience thinking about the real-world problems that go on in their own countries.
After Durling acknowledged the exquisite imagery in Dhont’s “Close,” Dhont explained how he wanted to challenge notions of masculinity through a young boy and the grieving process. Dhont later addressed that casting the main boys in “Close” was a challenge in creating the film. In addition to the aforementioned awards, three scholarships will be awarded in honor of Leslie Frankenheimer, sponsored by Lennie Marvin’s Prop Heaven, Robinson Royce, sponsored by RC Vintage and Marvin March, sponsored by SDSA and IATSE Local 44.
“The industry can no longer wring its hands and wonder where the women are,” said Staig in a statement. “Through the efforts of the Women In Media team, we’ve made tremendous gains for inclusion behind the scenes in the entertainment business. We are now headed in the right direction to attain my personal goal of 40 – 60% women and gender nonconforming folks in every crew, every department, every show.
Denis said, “My time working with Tom and the incredibly talented team at DNEG Animation has truly been a career highlight. To have this opportunity to work even more closely with our teams across the world and to play a part in the future direction of our division is incredibly gratifying. As DNEG Animation continues to grow and develop with the support of our clients, I am very proud and excited to be able to help shape the next phase of our journey.
