Telluride Lineup Includes ‘Ammonite,’ ‘The Duke,’ ‘Nomadland’ for Canceled Festival
Though the festival has been canceled, the Telluride Film Festival has announced its lineup for what would have been its 47th edition.
Among the films that would’ve premiered include Francis Lee’s “Ammonite,” Roger Michell’s “The Duke” and Chloe Zhao’s “Nomadland.”
The festival was originally scheduled to run between September 3-7, but the festival has been working in partnership with the other fall fests, including Toronto, Venice and New York, and encourages audiences to support these films at those events.

“Though we aren’t able to present our program in-person as planned, we still want to announce the lineup to bring attention to these brilliant films,” Telluride Film Festival executive director Julie Huntsinger said in a statement. “We’ve listed everything we know about screening opportunities so that audiences may watch as many of these films as possible. The Festival will continue to do everything in its power to champion and promote this artform and the people who create it.”
Some of the other notable titles include a documentary on the Bee Gees from Frank Marshall, Gia Coppola’s “Mainstream,” “Ricky Staub’s “Concrete Cowboy” and Werner Herzog’s next documentary “Fireball,” not all of which have other planned premieres as of yet. Focus Features would’ve also debuted “The Way I See It,” the latest documentary from “John Lewis: Good Trouble” director Dawn Porter about former White House photographer Pete Souza.
The festival even still named its Silver Medallion Awards for 2020, recognizing Sir Anthony Hopkins for his film “The Father,” Kate Winslet for “Ammonite” and Zhao for “Nomadland.”
Telluride additionally announced its shorts program, with three different programs curated by Gregory Nava and Barry Jenkins.
