Santa Barbara International Film Festival to Honor Oscar Nominees Including Mark Ruffalo, Paul Giamatti


The Santa Barbara International Film Festival will honor Oscar nominees including Mark Ruffalo and Paul Giamatti.

This year’s honorees include: Oscar nominees Danielle Brooks (“The Color Purple”), Colman Domingo (“Rustin”), America Ferrera (“Barbie”), Lily Gladstone (“Killers of the Flower Moon”), and Da’Vine Joy Randolph (“The Holdovers”) in addition to lauded performers Greta Lee (“Past Lives”), Charles Melton (“May December”), and Andrew Scott (“All of Us Strangers”). Paul Giamatti, Oscar nominated for his performance in “The Holdovers,” will receive the Cinema Vanguard award on Feb. 14, a valentine to his career that even his cranky alter ego in Alexander Payne’s film might appreciate. “American Fiction” star Jeffrey Wright will receive the fest’s Montecito Award on Feb. 15 and discuss his long career, which includes an Emmy winning turn in HBO’s adaptation of “Angels in America.”The following evening, “Nyad” star Annette Bening will be presented with the Arlington Award, a new honor named for the Santa Barbara venue that hosts many of these Oscar-season tributes.
