Director Paul Greengrass will be honored by the British Film Institute with the BFI Fellowship prize. Greengrass is best known for his work on 'The Bourne' franchise, 'United 93' and 'Captain Phillips.' He will receive the award at this year's 61st BFI London Film Festival on October 14. "As a filmmaker, Paul has been a true pioneer, bringing his instinct and experience from making hard-hitting programmes, such as those for World in Action, into the world of cinema. In a statement, Josh Berger, chair of the BFI, said Greengrass's "distinct ability to combine the visceral with the cerebral and offer a nuanced picture of heroism has injected a bold new realism into action thriller movies, leaving audiences around the world transfixed and eager for more."
