- Story Text:The red carpet was rolled out at the Berlinale Palast in Berlin on Tuesday (February 9) ready for the start of the 66th Berlin International Film Festival.
This year's festival will run from February 11-21 and is expected to draw plenty of stars to its red carpet.
Oscar winning actress Meryl Streep will be jury president, while the Coen brothers' star studded film 'Hail, Caesar!' has been chosen as the opening night film.
Of the 23 films in the Competition programme, 19 of them are world premieres - including Michael Grandage's feature film debut 'Genius' starring Nicole Kidman, Colin Firth and Jude Law.
Meanwhile Oscar winning filmmaker Michael Moore's new documentary 'Where To Invade Next' and Don Cheadle's take on the life of Miles Davis in 'Miles Ahead' are part of the Berlinale Special section. - Copyright Holder: REUTERS
