T

he 29th ASC Awards celebration, co-hosted by ASC
member Matthew Libatique and ASC president's assistant Delphine Figueras, was staged on Feb. 15 at the Hyatt
Regency Century Plaza in Los Angeles. The event was a
hot-ticket sellout with some high-profile guests among the
1,600 attendees. Luminaries on hand to salute the art and craft
of cinematography included Barbra Streisand, who received the
Board of Governors Award, and her husband, James Brolin;
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, supporting Unbroken cinematographer Roger Deakins, ASC, BSC; The Imitation Game director
Morten Tyldum, supporting nominee Óscar Faura; actor
Nathan Fillion and The X-Files creator Chris Carter, cheering
on Career Achievement in Television recipient Bill Roe, ASC;
actors Sarah Paulson, Tony Revolori and Giovanni Ribisi, who
served as presenters; film critic Leonard Maltin; filmmakers
Peter and Bobby Farrelly, saluting Presidents Award recipient
Matt Leonetti, ASC; and Lawrence Kasdan, who introduced
Lifetime Achievement Award winner John Bailey, ASC.
In her acceptance speech, Streisand singled out many of
the prominent ASC members she's collaborated with over the
course of her career as both an actor and director, offering anecdotes about their personalities, skills and contributions. "I'm
grateful to the American Society of Cinematographers for
giving me this award," she added. "I have such profound respect
for your craft. I cherish your artistry, and I look forward to working with you again."
In addition to Streisand's honor and the others listed
above, special ASC Awards handed out during the event
included the Bud Stone Award of Distinction, presented to
ASC associate members Denny Clairmont and Otto Nemenz;
and the International Award, presented to Phil Méheux, BSC.
