Oscar Winner Sandy Powell to Present Jarman Award

Oscar-winning costume designer Sandy Powell is set to present the Film London Jarman Award on November 24, where she will also be honored. This award was established in 2008 to celebrate U.K.-based artist-filmmakers and is named in honor of Derek Jarman, whom Powell collaborated with and was mentored by. Film London CEO Adrian Wootton praised Powell's remarkable talent and her support for Jarman's cultural legacy.

Powell's career highlights include Academy Awards for Best Costume Design for "Shakespeare in Love," "The Aviator," and "The Young Victoria." This year's nominees for the Film London Jarman Award are Sadia Pineda Hameed, Ilona Sagar, Rhea Storr, and Alia Syed.

Separately, Molly Shannon has joined "Summer 2000: The X-Cetra Story" as an executive producer. The film, which follows friends whose childhood album becomes an online hit, will premiere at AFI Fest on October 24. Shannon expressed her admiration for the film's message about holding onto one's inner dreamer. The documentary previously won an award at SXSW.
