Adriatic Film and TV Awards Set to Debut in Montenegro
The Adriatic Film and TV Awards, new awards recognizing 'the most significant regional film and television achievements in the territory of the former Yugoslavia,' will make their debut in Montenegro this fall. The inaugural awards ceremony will be held Oct. 24-26 at the Porto Montenegro venue in Tivat, Montenegro, which serves as the event's main partner.

The network was founded by the Sarajevo Film Festival, Zagreb Film Festival, and Auteur Film Festival in Belgrade. 'The Adriatic Film and TV Awards build on the legacy of the Sarajevo Film Festival's Heart of Sarajevo Awards for TV Series, which will no longer be held,' the partners said. 'The new concept expands the scope to include awards for film achievements as well.' The Academy said it would bring together more than 500 film and television professionals from the region, many of whom have previously served as jury members for the Heart of Sarajevo Awards for TV Series. Voting will begin in June, with the nominations set to be unveiled during the 31st Sarajevo Film Festival, which takes place Aug. 15-22. 'The awards ceremony will gather leading regional talent, providing a platform for networking, experience-sharing, and the international promotion of regional cinema,' the organizers said. Located in the UNESCO-protected Bay of Kotor, Porto Montenegro is a luxury marina and residential village that 'has expanded its offerings with the launch of Porto Montenegro Studios, a state-of-the-art complex featuring recording and filming facilities.'

The cast of ‘Twin Peaks' is coming to the Bay Area to share their stories. Here's how to get tickets
The celebration of the late David Lynch's legacy continues as cast members of his hit series 'Twin Peaks' tour the country to discuss the groundbreaking TV show with fans. But Bay Area devotees will get an extra treat. 'Twin Peaks: Conversation With The Stars' will hit 18 cities, beginning in Tysons, Va. on Aug. 4, and ending Oct. 20 at the Kiana Lodge in Poulsbo, Wash., where interiors of the Great Northern Hotel were shot. The venue's exterior is where Laura Palmer (played by Sheryl Lee) was found dead in the 1990 pilot episode, which provided the plot for the series. Lee, who also starred in Lynch's 1992 film 'Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me,' is only making select appearances during the tour's West Coast swing — including at Uptown Theatre in Napa on Oct. 17. Actors Ray Wise (who played attorney Leland Palmer), Harry Goaz (Deputy Andy Brennan) and Kimmy Robertson (kooky receptionist Lucy Moran) as well as Sabrina S. Sutherland, the executive producer of the 2017 limited series ' Twin Peaks: The Return,' are scheduled to make appearances at every stop of the tour to talk about their experiences and the legacy of the show, which is credited as a forerunner of prestige television with its continuous storyline and cinematic look. Lynch died on Jan. 16 at age 78. Sutherland told the Hollywood Reporter, which first broke news of the tour on Thursday, May 22, that Lynch signed off on the tour before his death. 'David was very happy that we were going to have this cast tour to celebrate 'Twin Peaks' with the fans all around the U.S.,' Sutherland said. 'It's sad that I won't be able to call him each night to let him know how the show went as I had promised. But I look forward to celebrating his work each night and having him in my heart instead.' 'Welcome to Lynchland,' a documentary about the filmmaker and his work, made its world premiere at the Cannes Film Festival on May 14.

Nude and 'Voluminous' Cannes Red Carpet Looks From Past Years That Would Violate New Dress Code
The Cannes Film Festival and its iconic red carpet are officially open for business. And aside from the shadow of President Donald Trump looming large over this year's festivities, the buzziest story to emerge so far this week has been the fest's new red carpet dress code. On the eve of this year's opening ceremony, a Cannes rep confirmed to The Hollywood Reporter that the festival updated its charter to ban full nudity and 'voluminous outfits,' especially those with a large train, that 'hinder the flow of traffic of guests and complicate seating in the theater.' The fest spokesperson clarified that the dress code is not meant to regulate attire 'per se,' but that it did get refreshed to reflect certain rules 'that have long been in effect.' More from The Hollywood Reporter 'Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning' Review: Tom Cruise Delivers but the Convoluted Eighth Entry Takes Its Sweet Time Getting There David Lynch's Son Intros 'Welcome to Lynchland' Doc in Cannes: "This Festival Meant a Lot to My Dad" Kurdistan Film Commission Launches, Celebrating Cannes Premiere With Invite to the Cinema World While that may be true, enforcement has definitely been, well, questionable. A quick scan of the Getty archives reveals no shortage of revealing and unruly ensembles, exposed nipples and derrieres and wildly long trains dating back decades. In 1988, Italian actress Ilona Staller (who also worked as a porn star and politician) walked the red carpet in a barely-there dress that fully exposed her breasts. In recent years, Bella Hadid and Kendall Jenner have also worn sheer dresses that left little to the imagination on their respective torsos. But film talent, models and brand ambassadors (especially those representing festival sponsors like L'Oreal, Kering and Chopard) have long operated with looser fashion restrictions than regular festival attendees who must adhere to black-tie and evening wear requirements. Longtime festival chief Thierry Frémaux has yet to comment on the updated dress code but he's known to keep it strict when it comes to festival integrity. (Remember when he called selfies ridiculous and grotesque?) Also known to keep it strict? Palais security guards who will definitely be on guard this year to turn away anyone who turns up nude or with a gown now deemed too wild, per the new rules: 'The festival welcoming teams will be obligated to prohibit red carpet access to anyone not respecting these rules.' Halle Berry and her styling team reacted swiftly to the new policy as the Oscar winner confirmed during the official jury press conference on Tuesday that she pivoted away from a gown she had planned to wear to Tuesday night's opening ceremony. 'I had an amazing dress…to wear tonight, and I cannot wear because the train is too big,' she said in front of the international press while joined by her fellow jury members like Jeremy Strong. 'So I, of course, am going to follow the rules. I had to make a pivot, but the nudity part, I do think is probably also a good rule.' To gauge how the news is traveling overseas, THR checked in with rising fashion influencer and TikTok star Nicky Campbell. 'Cannes maintains a highly esteemed, and rigid, vision of themselves. eleventh hour mandate impacts, most concerningly, the A list talent — and brand sponsors who pay for many to attend — and their styling teams who have been preparing carpet looks for weeks,' Campbell says. 'This ban could cause a frenzy and many last-minute changes, garment sourcing, and labor to ensure that talent arrive carpet ready and avoid any potential dismissal. I would be having a panic attack.' Fashion insider and veteran executive Tosha Hays released a statement through a rep that states she is in support of the policy, adding that in today's attention-driven economy, less isn't always more. 'I support the Cannes 'naked dress' ban, not as a rejection of bold fashion, but as a statement about the cultural moment we're in,' explains Hays, whose resumé includes tenures at Venus Fashion and Spanx. 'The red carpet has become less about style and more about algorithms. We've traded storytelling for spectacle. This isn't about modesty, it's about meaning.' Since meaning can always be found through examining history, THR compiled some photographic evidence of a sampling of the most sheer and most voluminous gowns to hit the Cannes red carpet in previous years. But first a warning: Some of the images contain partial nudity.
