Lifetime honour for Warren Beatty Warren Beatty is to receive a lifetime achievement award from the American Film Institute (AFI). The Bonnie & Clyde star will be honoured at a Los Angeles gala ceremony in June 2008, according to the Hollywood Reporter. Howard Stringer, AFI trustees chair, confirmed Beatty was chosen for his achievements both in front of and behind the camera. "Warren Beatty has charmed moviegoers as a dynamic leading man from his first moment onscreen and continues to do so today," Stringer explained. "He is also a master filmmaker - writer, producer and director - of such artistry and influence that his movies [have] left an indelible mark on the cultural legacy of American film." Beatty appeared in his first movie, Elia Kazan's Splendour in the Grass, in 1962, and, as well as playing notorious criminal Clyde Barrow, received his first producer credit on Arthur Penn's 1967 crime caper. The star, married to actress Annette Bening, combined acting, writing, producing and directorial duties in 1981's Reds. Al Pacino was the 2006 recipient of the AFI lifetime achievement award.  05 October 2007, 12:03 |
