The 15th Annual Palm Beach International Film Festival (PBIFF) is pleased to present the Lifetime Achievement Award to actor/director/producer Burt Reynolds and the Horizon Award to actor Quinton Aaron, who recently starred in the Academy Award-nominated feature "The Blind Side." Sadly, due to new scheduling conflicts, our previously announced Career Achievement Award recipient, Elliott Gould, will not be able to attend the festival.
