The Father

The Telluride Film Festival, which was supposed to run September 3-7 but was cancelled due to Covid-19, has revealed the films that would’ve been selected this year. 

“Though we aren’t able to present our program in-person as planned, we still want to announce the lineup to bring attention to these brilliant films,” said Telluride executive director Julie Huntsinger. “We’ve listed everything we know about screening opportunities so that audiences may watch as many of these films as possible. The festival will continue to do everything in its power to champion and promote this artform and the people who create it.”

The lineup includes 29 features from 25 countries, and features several titles also selected for Toronto (including Francis Lee’s Ammonite and Florian Zeller’s The Father), and Venice (Roger Michell’s The Duke, Quentin Dupieux’s Mandibules and Gianfranco Rosi’s Notturno). Telluride will also host a Los Angeles drive-in screening of Chloe Zhao’s Nomadland as part of its partnership with Venice and TIFF

Telluride has revealed the winners of its 2020 Silver Medallion Awards: Zhao, Anthony Hopkins (The Father) and Kate Winslet (Ammonite).
