The 64th Locarno Film Festival was held from 3 to 13 August 2011 in Locarno, Switzerland. [1] There were 14 world premieres for films in competition. The opening film of the festival was J.J. Abrams' Super 8. [2] Another American film, Cowboys & Aliens , also screened on the Piazza Grande, the 8,000-seat open-air theater. It was presented at the festival by the film's stars Harrison Ford, Daniel Craig and Olivia Wilde and director Jon Favreau. [1] Spike Jonze also screened his hand-made stop-motion short To Die by Your Side. [1]
The festival featured a retrospective of American director Vincente Minnelli. [1] Leslie Caron, star of his film An American in Paris, attended the festival for the retrospective. [3] Other stars at the festival included Magali Noel, Claudia Cardinale, Gérard Depardieu, and Isabelle Huppert, who received the Excellence award. [3] [1]
The Leopard of Honor was awarded to Abel Ferrara for lifetime achievement in cinema [4] [1] Ferrara received the award on the Piazza Grand in front of a 5,000 person crowd. During his acceptance he unveiled a surprise band and began to sing. After the first song Ferrara kept singing and artistic director Olivier Pere was described as standing by "helplessly." The audience began to yell out and boo, eager to watch the two movies on schedule that night, Friends with Benefits and Attack the Block . Ferrara sung several more songs, and finally walked off smiling. The Guardian speculated that, with his rebellious reputation, Ferrara did it just to assume himself. [4] Ferrara later denied this saying it was an accident and while on-stage he thought the calls to get him to leave were cheers for an encore. [5]
The Golden Leopard, the festival's top prize, was awarded to Back to Stay directed by Milagros Mumenthaler. [6] [7] [3]
