Moscow International Film Festival
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Moscow Film Festival)
Moscow International Film Festival, or MIFF is the second oldest festival in the world, after the Venice Film Festival. It was first held in Moscow in 1935. From 1959 to 1995 it was held every second year in July. The festival has been held annually since 1995.
The festival's top prize is the statue of Saint George slaying the dragon, as represented on the Coat of Arms of Moscow. Federico Fellini's 8½ is the most famous film to win the top prize of this festival. Nikita Mikhalkov has been the festival's president since 2000. The Stanislavsky Award has been introduced recently to be presented to outstanding actors, such as Jack Nicholson and Meryl Streep.
