Sean Penn: Cinema for Peace Honorary Award

Sean Penn: Cinema for Peace Honorary Award

Stepping out for a special night, Sean Penn was spotted at the 61st Berlin International Film Festival in Berlin, Germany on Monday (February 14).

The “Milk” actor was dressed to the nines, but seemed a bit out of it as he smoked a cigarette and answered questions from the media.

Mr Penn was awarded with the Cinema for Peace Honorary Award for his humanitarian efforts in Haiti after the earthquake which ravaged the area in 2010.


According to Examiner, the evening’s event was called The Cinema for Peace Gala 2011 and benefitted a new initiative which was announced last night; Project Earth. The Project Earth initiative will be supporting student scientists who have shown concern for animals, human beings and the environment.

Sean Penn Shows Off His Versatility As An Actor

Sean Penn was snapped on the set of his new movie "This Must Be the Place", which is filming in Dublin. The movie is a "crime thriller" with Sean playing a former rock star:

A bored, retired rock star sets out to find his father's executioner, an ex-Nazi war criminal who is a refugee in the U.S.

I have to admit that at first when I saw the shots, I thought this movie might be a comedy, but after reading iMDb, I see that it's not. Sean is a talented actor, but he never does comedy anymore. And he clearly CAN do comedy - I mean Jeff Spicoli from Fast Times At Ridgemont High anyone??? Yeah, I know, it was 28 years ago, but STILL. That's my career advice for Sean Penn: take a break from all those serious roles. Do a comedy - something fun and goofy!  (imnotobsessed)
