“Welcome to the 48th, 49th, and 50th AFI Life Achievement Awards,”  American Film Institute President and CEO Bob Gazzale stated as he began his welcoming remarks for Thursday night’s long awaited and long pandemic- delayed tribute to Julie Andrews, the 2022 honoree at a ceremony originally  set to take place in the spring of 2020 that now finally happened with all style and warmth so familiar to these AFI evenings ever since AFI founder George Stevens Jr. came up with the idea in 1973 when director John Ford was the first honoree (Stevens, now 90, was there and acknowledged from the stage last night). Since then there has never been a “gap” between cereomonies but now there is between 2019 honoree Denzel Washington and Andrews, but it was well worth the wait, and congratulations to the AFI, Board Trustees Chairs Kathleen Kennedy and Bob Daly as well as Gazzale (who is also Executive Producer of the show which will air on TNT June 16 at 10pm) for not letting Covid diminish the event, even if it had to come a little later than usual,and every member of the audience at the Dolby Theatre (transformed into a banquet setting for the elegant dinner) had to take a PCR test at least 48 hours before entering the building. Other than that it was just like old times and you could tell the industry crowd was thrilled to be there for a genuine show business legend. The only sad part was that Andrews’ The Sound Of Music co-star Christopher Plummer was not there. The Oscar winning actor had actually been set to appear at the tribute when it was originally to take place before the pandemic had other ideas. He died in Feburary of last year at age 91.

Harry Styles is known for his record-breaking success, and his impact has even reached ‘Elvis’ director Baz Luhrmann, who recently explained why he prefered not to cast the singer in the highly anticipated biopic starring Austin Butler as the legendary musician.The successful artist was excited to have the opportunity to get into the role of Elvis Presley, however the coveted role was desired by many other Hollywood stars, and ultimately went to Butler, partly because Denzel Washington mentored the actor onstage and convinced Luhrmann to give him the role.And when asked about his decision to cast Butler instead of Styles, the director revealed he would be thrilled to “work on something with him” but his worldwide success as a singer was the reason for him not to be included in the cast of the long awaited film, adding that Butler was “born to play” Elvis.“Harry is a really talented actor,” Luhrmann said during a recent interview in the ‘Fitzy & Wippa’ podcast on Monday, declaring that “the real issue with Harry is, he’s Harry Styles. He’s already an icon.”“Harry and I came to a place, genuinely I mean, he was just desperate to put the suit on and explore.
