Known for her unforgettable performances in films such as Fatal Attraction, Big Chill, The Wife and Albert Nobbs, Close has earned eight Academy Award nominations and numerous Golden Globe, Emmy and Tony Awards.
“To this day, I can remember the first time I saw Glenn Close on the big screen. Though her film debut came a year earlier in The World According to Garp (earning an Oscar® nomination), I’ll never forget seeing her in The Big Chill, delivering a memorably layered performance that revealed the extraordinary talent, intelligence and emotional depth that have defined her career ever since,” said Ben Mankiewicz, TCM Primetime Host and Official Host of the TCM Classic Film Festival. “More than four decades later, Glenn Close continues to captivate audiences—from her earliest roles to iconic performances like Dangerous Liaisons—and we are proud to honor her enduring legacy at this year’s festival.”
