Harrison Ford and his agent, Jim Berkus, are here today to receive a special agent's award created just for this festival to honour the memory of Ford's long-term industry personal rep, Pat Ki..., (somebody) -- who passed away last year..
Harrison looked quite weary and jet-lagged out but managed to give good press conference in a low serious voice. Among points covered... the environment, the function of the agent in an actor's career, how he works with other actors such as Tommy Lee Jones, political involvement. plans to direct, his next film "Indiana Jones IV" and etcetera--

Also here today, 91 year old Italian director Mario Monicelli. still active.
A documentary about him shot on the set of his latest film in the desert of Tunisia was also presented followed by a fascinating discussion with the admiring Italian that was like a family affair.

Off now to see Danish director Susan Bier's latest work, "At the Wedding" which has a good buzz going for it.
