The Countdown has started for the 65th edition of the Berlin International
Film Festival. Anticipationand excitement is gradually building up in the German
capital. Let's hear more from Berlinaledirector Dieter Kosslick.
In the face of frosty temperatures, Berlin is still in the hotspot hosting
the 65th International FilmFestival with world premieres and mega stars.
"We have these 400 films and we have 23 films at the red carpet for the
Berlinale competition. AndI hope everybody will show up from James Franco to
Robert Pattinson, to Nicole Kidman, toNatalie Portman, to also the German stars
in these films. And yeah, I am waiting for them andnormally they show up,"
Berlinale director Dieter Kosslick said.
Disney's live-action "Cinderella" is among the hugely anticipated
blockbusters this year. The film hassomething to live up to. Disney's first
original animated feature "Cinderella" won the "Golden Bear"award for best
musical film and the Audience Award at the first Berlinale in 1951.

"We have wonderful highlights, for example at the end of the Berlinale we
show the premiere of'Cinderella', which was a film that won 1951, some 65 years
ago, the audience award. That was ananimation film in 1951, now we have the live
action film with big stars, Cate Blanchett and KennethBranagh is the director of
the film," Kosslick said.
The Berlinale film festival is more geared toward arthouse films, which it
will have aplenty fromdirectors including Terrence Malick, Peter Greenaway and
Wim Wenders. In all, 23 films are beingscreened in the main selection of which
only 19 are in contention for winning the prestigious"Golden Bear".
"Berlin is the first big European film festival of the year and it is the
first big international film festivalof the year, because Sundance is
predominantly about American Indies. It does have aninternational strand, but it
doesn't have the premieres that we have here. So, here we have thenew Werner
Herzog, the new Andrew Hague, the new Wim Wenders, whereas in Sundance youhave
American directors. And I think this for an international audience is very
exciting," film criticKaleem Aftab said.
The two-week long movie extravaganza is set to kick off with the world
premiere of Spanish-French-Bulgarian co-production "Nobody Wants the Night".
This year's jury will be presided over by the American director,
screenwriter and producer DarrenAronofsky, who together with members of an
international jury will award the coveted Golden andSilver Bears. The award
ceremony will be held on February 14 at Berlinale Palast, featuring also
ascreening of the winner of the Golden Bear.
