Out of the over 115 films from around the world that were screened during the 25th annual
Hamptons International Film Festival, it was Nicolas Bedos'
Mr. & Mrs. Adelman, Lisa Immordino Vreeland's
Love, Cecil, and Jacob LaMendola's
Long Shot that resonated the most with attendees.
Mr. & Mrs. Adelman, which stars Bedos and co-writer Doria Tillier as a French couple that experience 40 years of pain and joy, earned the Audience Award for Narrative Feature.
Love, Cecil, which chronicles the life of Cecil Beaton - the Oscar-winning set and costume designer of
My Fair Lady and
Gigi, won the Audience Award for Documentary Feature.
Long Shot, a documentary that follows Juan Catalan, who was arrested for a murder he did not commit, took home the Audience Award for Best Short Film.
"We are thrilled to announce
Love, Cecil,
Mr. & Mrs. Adelman and
Long Shot as our audience award winners in a diverse lineup that was strong and competitive this year," said
HIFF Artistic Director
David Nugent. "We extend our gratitude to the filmmakers for allowing us to showcase their work, and continue to remain excited to see how our audiences react."
The festival ran from Thursday, October 5 through Monday, October 9.
"We offer our most sincere congratulations to these winners and are delighted that these films resonated with our audiences," added HIFF Executive Director
Anne Chaisson. "Both features are currently available for US Distribution, and certainly have exciting
journeys ahead of them."
