Ennio Morricone will be feted by the 11th Los Angeles-Italia Film Fashion and Art Festival, the annual pre-Oscars event comprising movies and music and celebrating showbiz ties between Italy and Hollywood, which will run Feb. 21-27 at the Hollywood and Highland Center.
The venerable Italian composer, whose long list of credits includes scores for "Once upon a time in the West," "Bugsby," and "The Mission" received an Honorary Lifetime Achievement Oscar in 2007. He is a Golden Globes nominee this year for composing the original score for Quentin Tarantino's "The Hateful Eight" and is considered a possible contender for additional accolades, including a possible Oscar nomination.
