STOCKHOLM, Sweden (AP) - Canadian film maker David Cronenberg will receive the lifetime achievement award at this year's Stockholm International Film Festival, organizers said Monday.
Cronenberg, a renowned horror director and the man behind such movies as "The Fly," "Naked Lunch" and "Spider," will receive the Bronze Horse award for his "mind-blowing visual aesthetic," that has "penetrated mass phenomena in modern society as well as the mind and body of the individual," the award jury said in a statement.
The award will be given to Cronenberg during the Nov. 17-27 festival in the Swedish capital.
