Telluride Film Festival 2026

Overview

The 53rd annual Telluride Film Festival in Colorado has commenced, featuring over 60 feature films, short films, and revival programs. The event continues to serve as a critical early indicator for the upcoming Oscar awards season.

Martin McDonagh’s ‘Wild Horse Nine’, a dark comedy-thriller starring John Malkovich and Sam Rockwell, has generated significant buzz following its Venice premiere. The film, which follows CIA agents on Easter Island during the 1973 Chilean coup, received a lengthy standing ovation at the festival. During the event, John Malkovich was honored with the Golden Medallion for his body of work.

Other major highlights include the world premiere of ‘Elsinore’, starring Andrew Scott, and ‘The Debut’, starring Julianne Moore. The festival also featured a surprise screening of ‘You Can See Everything’, an A24 documentary directed by Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim, which provides an intimate look at Elizabeth Holmes in the days leading up to her imprisonment. Additional notable titles include ‘Tenzing’, Danny Boyle’s ‘Ink’, and works from Mike Leigh and Andrew Haigh.
