Star cast for jury at Berlin film festival
Print Edition
Double Oscar-winning Austrian actor Christoph Waltz, Hong Kong heartthrob Tony Leung and French filmmaker Michel Gondry will be jurors at next month’s Berlin film festival, headed by US producer James Schamus, organizers said yesterday.
Schamus’ diverse resume includes the 2005 Oscar-winning “Brokeback Mountain” on which he worked with director Ang Lee.
For more than a decade, Schamus led Focus Features and was involved in producing films such as “Lost in Translation,” “Milk,” “Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind” and “Dallas Buyers Club.”
The 64th Berlinale, the first major European cinema showcase of the year, will open on February 6 with an all-star romp by US director Wes Anderson, “The Grand Budapest Hotel,” and wrap up on February 16.
The jury will hand out the festival’s top Golden and Silver Bear awards.
Leung, who appeared in the 2000 hit “In the Mood for Love,” starred in “The Grandmaster,” a martial arts epic about the mentor of kung fu superstar Bruce Lee which opened last year’s festival.
Long a well-known face among German-speaking audiences, Austria’s Waltz is best known internationally for his parts in Quentin Tarantino’s “Inglourious Basterds” and “Django Unchained” for which he won two Oscars.
Fellow jury members include US actress and filmmaker Greta Gerwig and Barbara Broccoli, daughter of the late “James Bond” producer Albert Broccoli.
