The San Luis Obispo International Film Festival (SLOIFF) announced that actor Jeff Bridges will be presented with the 20th Anniversary King Vidor Award at the upcoming festival taking place March 5 to 9th, 2014.  On Saturday, March 8 at the Fremont Theatre in San Luis Obispo, former King Vidor Award recipient James Cromwell will present the award followed by a conversation with Jeff Bridges, and a screening of one of his films.

One of Hollywood’s most successful actors and a six-time Academy Award® nominee, Bridges’ performance in CRAZY HEART”—as Bad Blake, the down-on-his-luck country music singer —deservedly garnered the iconic performer his first Oscar® for Best Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role.  The performance also earned him the Golden Globe, SAG Award and the IFP/Spirit Award for Lead Actor.

Other SLOIFF Highlights include the 3rd Annual Spotlight Award presented to Adam West on Opening Night, after a screening of the new documentary, STARRING ADAM WEST directed by James Tooley.
