My Week with Marilyn star Michelle Williams has been chosen to receive the Desert Palm Achievement Actress Award at the 23rd annual Palm Springs International Film Festival (PSIFF). The PSIFF runs January 5-16, 2012 with the awards ceremony set for January 7th.
“Every generation, the cinema has a few performers who mesmerize audiences with an exceptional blend of talent, versatility and grace,” stated Festival Chairman Harold Matzner. “Michelle Williams epitomizes these qualities as she continues to accept challenging role after challenging role. In her latest work, My Week with Marilyn, she perfectly captures the glamour and vulnerability of the iconic Marilyn Monroe who finds respite and solice during a week-long hiatus from Hollywood pressures. To this actress, a cinematic star in her own right, the Palm Springs International Film Festival is proud to present the 2012 Desert Palm Achievement Actress Award.”
