San Sebastian Festival Award ‘Lord of the Rings’ Actor
It is all over the blogosphere and I want to join the euphoria. It is true indeed that Ian McKellen the 70 year old actor of several hit films like Lord of the Rings, X-Men series, Gods and Monsters will be awarded in San Sebastian Film Festivals. McKellen will be receiving a lifetime achievement award which was announced last Friday by the organizers. He will be given a Donostia Award which honors the career and works of a great film personality. Former recipient of the same awards were Meryl steep and Spain’s Antonio Banderas.
McKellen’s versatility in his acting career which varies from Shakespeare classics to present superheroes like Gandalf in the film Lord of the Rings and even antagonist Magneto in X-Men series has already won him various awards. The film Gods and Monster has won McKellen a Silver Shell award for the category ‘best actor’.
San Sebastian International Film Festival is one of the grandest and prestigious film festivals in the Film Industry which will take place from 18th to 26th of September. The festival will welcome worldwide known actors in almost all genres.
It is at this time that San Sebastian will again be the centre of the limelight; thus tourist will get a closer sighting of favorite actors and actresses. Fireworks and various activities will be stage in the city.
It is already expected that crowds will be present from the first to the last day of the festival in San Sebastian. The city is already a desired destination because of its pristine beaches and cultural centre and the festival would surely add thousands of tourists to flock to the city for the festival.
The fireworks display is also one of a million in the history of the festivals. Photographers will also feast on this activity. If you plan to stay in San Sebastian for the rest of the festival days then expect to experience only the best and grandest any city can offer to their guest.
