The Santa Barbara Film Festival on Thursday revealed the lineup for its 37th edition, which is set to run March 2-12 in-person in its customary spot in the heat of Oscar season.
The festival will kick off with The Phantom of the Open, the Sony Pictures Classics comedy directed by Craig Roberts and starring Mark Rylance in the true story of Maurice Fitcroft, who entered the 1976 British Open despite never having played a round of golf before. Sally Hawkins and Rhys Ifans also star in the BBC Films pic.
The documentary Dionne Warwick: Don’t Make Me Over is the closing-night film, with Warwick set to be in attendance.
Overall, the festival in the beach city just north of Los Angeles will present 48 world premieres and 95 U.S. premieres from 54 countries, with a lineup that features films from directors Neil Labute, Ramin Bahrani, François Ozon, Eva Husson and more.

During the third night of ABC’s “Jeopardy! The Greatest of All Time,” the three biggest earners in the history of the game show continued their primetime battle for the title of ultimate champion: Brad Rutter, Ken Jennings and James Holzhauer. On the line? A $1 million grand prize for the first player to win three nights. The other two guys will walk away with $250,000 apiece, which also isn’t too shabby.
As it turns out, the second Final Jeopardy question on Thursday night was something right up Gold Derby’s alley. It all came down to the category of “21st Century Oscar Winners,” with the answer reading as follows: “These 2 foreign-born directors have each won 2 Best Director Oscars, but none of their films has won Best Picture.”
