Los Angeles:
Oscar-winning actor Tim Robbins will be receive the Berlinale Camera honour at the upcoming Berlin Film Festival later this month.
The award is given to honour film personalities or institutions to which it feels particularly indebted and wishes to express its thanks, said The Hollywood Reporter.
Robbins, 57, picked up the Oscar and Golden Globe supporting actor award for “Mystic River” in 2003.
He will be celebrated alongside the two other Berlinale Camera honors, indie legend Ben Barenholtz, who is behind the famed Elgin Cinema and was a producer on the Coen Brothers’ early films, and German cinema operator Marlies Kirchner.
The Berlinale Camera has been awarded since 1986 and is modeled on a real camera with 128 individual components.
