Although she has only a small supporting role in a musical production, she ultimately stands up for artistic integrity against the domineering director.<\/p>\n<p>The Debut is Jesse Eisenberg\u2019s third film. He previously worked with Julianne Moore on his debut film, When You Finish Saving The World (2022).<\/p>\n<p>Over the course of her 30-year career, Moore has worked with directors such as Robert Altman, the Coen brothers and Todd Haynes, in films including Short Cuts, The Big Lebowski and Safe, Far From Heaven. She has won an Oscar, an Emmy and a BAFTA \u2013 and she is the first American actress to have received the top acting awards at the major European film festivals in Cannes, Berlin and Venice.<\/p>\n<p>Previous winners of the Golden Icon Award at the ZFF include Kate Winslet, Sylvester Stallone and Sharon Stone. The 22nd edition of the ZFF will take place from September 24 to October 4.<\/p>\n<p>+\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.swissinfo.ch\/eng\/about-us\/how-swissinfo-produces-news-in-english\/91695684\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">How we produce news in English<\/a><br \/>Translated from German, reviewed by an\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.swissinfo.ch\/eng\/department\/english-department\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">English Department<\/a>\u00a0journalist.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>        Articles in this story    <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Zurich Film Festival honours Oscar-winning actress Julianne Moore Keystone-SDA The 22nd Zurich Film Festival is honouring the actress&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":124359,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[6],"tags":[101,98,1918,3933,100,103,102,51],"class_list":["post-124358","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-zurich","tag-article","tag-beat-culture","tag-culture","tag-human-interest","tag-latest-news","tag-production-type-deepl-autotranslation","tag-sda-ready-to-publish","tag-zurich"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@ch\/117201403144638065","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/124358","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=124358"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/124358\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/124359"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=124358"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=124358"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=124358"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
