Macy, Blythe Danner, Alec Baldwin, Alan Arkin, Bruce Dern, Maria Bello, Peter Fonda, James Franco, and director Oliver Stone, along with many special guests including Presidential Medal of Freedom-honoree Congressman John Lewis, and legendary musicians David Crosby, Jakob Dylan, and Robbie Robertson of “The Band.”
BIFF is honored to be one of a small number of festivals where Scott Feinberg from The Hollywood Reporter records his celebrated Awards Chatter podcast in-person, featuring the most interesting and accomplished people in the industry. Past interviews at BIFF include award-winning actors Javier Bardem, F. Murray Abraham, and Tony Goldwyn in 2024.
