Alec Baldwin, the award-winning actor who has distinguished himself on the stage and screen for nearly a half-century, will sit down with yours truly at the upcoming Boulder International Film Festival for a career-retrospective conversation that will also be recorded as an episode of The Hollywood Reporter’s Awards Chatter podcast.
The event will kick off at 7:45 pm on Saturday, April 11, at the historic Boulder Theater. Tickets go on sale on Friday, March 13, at BIFF1.com.
Baldwin, 67, first made his name in films such as 1988’s Beetlejuice, Working Girl and Married to the Mob and 1990’s The Hunt for Red October. Later big screen credits include 1992’s Glengarry Glen Ross, 1996’s Ghosts of Mississippi, 2001’s The Royal Tenenbaums and Pearl Harbor, 2003’s The Cooler (for which he received an Oscar nomination), 2004’s The Aviator, 2006’s The Departed, 2009’s It’s Complicated, 2012’s To Rome with Love, 2013’s Blue Jasmine, 2014’s Still Alice and 2019’s Motherless Brooklyn.
Remarkably, he has found even greater success on the small screen, most famously on NBC’s Saturday Night Live, which he has hosted a record 17 times, and for which he also provided the definitive impression of Donald Trump, earning him an Emmy; and on the same network’s 30 Rock, on which he played TV exec Jack Donaghy opposite creator Tina Fey’s Liz Lemon, and for which he was won two Emmys, three Golden Globes and seven Actor Awards. He also co-hosted the Oscars in 2010.
A true Renaissance man, Baldwin also hosts an interview podcast, Here’s The Thing, and a nationally-syndicated radio show, The New York Philharmonic This Week; frequently serves as a guest host on Turner Classic Movies; co-chairs the board of the Hamptons International Film Festival, for which he co-created and helps to program its SummerDocs series; and is a generous patron of the arts.
The 22nd annual Boulder International Film Festival will run April 9-12.
