In case you forgot, it’s time for the 64th annual Berlin International Film Festival, when Berlin becomes the center of the film world.
Actually, not yet, it’s scheduled to be held from February 6th to February 15th 2014 but now is the perfect moment to start our little chat about the whole thing.
James Schamus will serve as president of the International Jury at the Festival next month with an impressive fellow jury including Barbara Broccoli, Trine Dyrholm, Mitra Faharani, Greta Gerwig, Michel Gondry, Tony Leung and Christoph Waltz.
Schamus and company will decide who will receive the Golden Bear and Silver Bears of the 2014 Berlinale Competition.
The 2014 Berlinale will open with the world premiere of Wes Anderson‘s The Grand Budapest Hotel.
Twenty of the 23 films in the Competition program will be vying for the Golden Bear and Silver Bears. The awards ceremony will take place at the Berlinale Palast on February 15. The event will close with a screening of the winner of the Golden Bear.
With a lineup that already includes George Clooney’s Monuments Men and Lars von Trier‘s director’s cut of Nymphomaniac Part 1, organizers also unveiled some new In Competition titles – Christoph Gans‘ Beauty And The Beast, though it will be screening out of competition and the big highlight, Richard Linklater‘s 12-years-in-the-making project Boyhood, premiered at the Sundance Film Festival.
When it comes to Out Competition Berlinale movies, among the highlights are David O. Russell‘s Oscar contender American Hustle, Diego Luna directed biopic Cesar Chavez, acclaimed Canadian documentary Watermark, Two Faces Of January and A Long Way Down.
So, now, read it carefully – complete 2014 Berlin Film Festival lineup.
