Isabella Rossellini to Receive Lifetime Achievement Award From European Film Academy
Isabella Rossellini will receive a lifetime achievement award from the European Film Academy
The Italian model and movie star, who is the daughter of Swedish actor Ingrid Bergman and Italian director Roberto Rossellini, made her acting debut in 1979 in the Taviani brothers’ film “Il Prato” before breaking out internationally in David Lynch’s “Blue Velvet” in 1986, followed by prominent roles in films such as Taylor Hackford’s “White Nights,” Robert Zemeckis’s “Death Becomes Her,” and Peter Weir’s “Fearless,” to name a few. Rossellini, who is 72, has more recently resurfaced as standout character actress, with meaty parts in Alice Rohrwacher “La Chimera,” alongside Josh O’ Connor, “Spaceman” with Adam Sandler and Carey Mulligan, and Edward Berger’s soon-to-be-released “Conclave” in which she plays a scene-stealing nun. Announcing the award, the European Film Academy said the honor “serves as a reminder of the depth and breadth of talent that continues to shape the landscape of world cinema.”
