European Film Awards Ceremony Underway In Berlin; Winners Announced (Live)
Refresh for latest…
The European Film Awards ceremony is just kicking off in Berlin tonight for what is the 26th running of the event. The prizes are presented jointly by the 2,900 member European Film Academy and by EFA Productions to honor the greatest achievements in European cinema. Coming in to last year’s kudofest, Michael Haneke’s eventual Best Foreign Language Film Oscar winner and Best Picture nominee Amour led the pack with six nominations. It ultimately won four EFAs. This time around, Felix van Groeningen’s Berlin and Tribeca prize-winner, The Broken Circle Breakdown, is the most-nominated picture with five nods in each of the top categories. The film is also Belgium’s entry for the Foreign Language Oscar. Paolo Sorrentino’s Cannes competitor, and Italy’s Oscar entry, The Great Beauty, has four nominations. Other films vying for prizes include Giuseppe Tornatore’s English-language The Best Offer; François Ozon’s In The House; Jan Ole Gerster’s Oh Boy!; and Joe Wright’s Anna Karenina. Blue Is The Warmest Color also has two nods. The EFAs have added a new category this year, for Best European Comedy. Veteran French actress Catherine Deneuve will be on hand as the recipient of the Lifetime Achievement Award, as will Pedro Almodovar for the honorary European Achivement in World Cinema prize. The European Co-production Award – Prix Eurimages is going to Romania’s Ada Solomon. Competitive categories which have already been decided include Cinematography, Editing, Production Design, Costume Design, Composer and Sound. Those results are listed below.
