Bruce Dern is Coming Home with an Award

FestForums is pleased to announce that actor Bruce Dern, who has been nominated for numerous Oscars, Golden Globes® and an Emmy, will be this year's Conference Closing Keynote Speaker. He will also be receiving a Lifetime Achievement Award at the conference for his contribution to film.



Dern has also won Best Actor Awards at both the Cannes and Berlin Film Festivals. His acting credits are voluminous but he is best known for playing eccentric characters as demonstrated in Coming Home, Monster, Nebraska and The Hateful Eight. His personal background is as interesting as his film career as he comes from a long line of distinguished politicians and lawyers. He is an avid runner and ultra-marathoner. Watch him run away with our Lifetime Achievement Award. Only at FestForums November 21st, Santa Barbara.



Co-Founders of FestForums, Stuart MacNaught and Laurie Kirby stated “Bruce Dern infuses and electrifies every role with his gripping persona. We are thrilled he will be sharing stories of his legendary career in a conversation you won’t want to miss."
