Gene Siskel Film Center Renaissance Award 2011
|
Robert presented friend and co-star Jamie Foxx with the Gene Siskel Award at the Ritz Carlton Hotel
in Chicago on June 4 (same award as Robert received in 2010). Funds raised from the ticket sales supported the educational
initiatives of the The Film Center of the School of the Art Institute. Among the many dinner guests were also friends
of this website who experienced the night of their lives as they got to meet both Robert, Susan, and Jamie up-close.
VIDEO Quote Robert: "It's an honor to share the evening with my good friend. He's a national treasure." Quote Jamie: "I made a great friend while making 'The Soloist'. It's rare you actually hang out with someone after a movie. I'm honored to be able to share with him another brilliant moment in my life." |
