47th Telluride Film Festival
The 47th Telluride Film Festival was scheduled to take place on September 4–7, 2020. In May 2020, it was announced that the festival would kick off a day earlier on September 3 for safety purposes.[1] However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Colorado, the festival announced its cancellation on July 14, 2020.[2] Telluride was due to honor the Silver Medallion to Chloé Zhao, Anthony Hopkins, and Kate Winslet.[3]
Telluride announced the year's initial line-up on August 3, 2020.[4] Ammonite and Concrete Cowboy were set to world premiere at the festival, but the two films were screened for the first time at the 2020 Toronto International Film Festival instead.[5] Nomadland was also set to premiere at the festival, but it premiered at the 2020 Venice Film Festival.[6] Telluride held a drive-in screening of the film at the Rose Bowl in Los Angeles.[7]
Official selections
These films were set to screen at the festival before its cancellation.[8]
