This year, the Emile Awards Ceremony will be followed by the screening of the restored version of Yellow Submarine (1968) directed by George Dunning , celebrating its 50th Anniversary. The movie screening is reserved to Emile Awards attendees and will start right after the ceremony ends.
“When I first became fascinated by the possibilities of animation, it was difficult in Britain even to see the most interesting and challenging work,” says Peter Lord. “There was the occasional creative landmark of course, notably Yellow Submarine which acted as a beacon for our generation of filmmakers with its astonishing visual invention. Beyond that, if you were interested in animation you had to work pretty hard to satisfy your craving”
