The 27 th edition of the festival will end on an especially riotous note with the World Premiere of We Are Zombies, the latest from internationally beloved Quebecois cult collective RKSS ( Summer of ‘84 ) – François Simard, Anouk Whissell, and Yoann-Karl Whissell. And now, at the World Premiere of Sympathy for the Devil and another classic Cage performance, Fantasia is honored to present this year’s Cheval Noir Career Achievement Award to this remarkable performer responsible for bringing life to some of the most fascinating people to grace the big screen in some of the most extraordinary films ever made. More so than that, Cage is drawn to films and filmmakers that take these people (and the audiences) on unforgettable, often risk-taking journeys, be they in dark dramas ( Leaving Las Vegas, Bringing Out the Dead, Joe, Pig ), wild comedies ( Raising Arizona, Vampire’s Kiss ) action favorites ( Con Air, Face/Off ), or such fearless masterworks as Wild at Heart and Mandy, films that mix the true and the fantastic into indelible works of popular and cinematic art. In over 40 years in film Nicolas Cage has brought a wide variety of unforgettable people to life in works that are as memorable as the characters he portrayed, with textured performances that have been among the most exciting and unique from anyone in the last four decades.
