The Berlin Film Festival has announced that it will host two special screenings in memory of actors Maximilian Schell and Philip Seymour Hoffman, who both died at the weekend.
In tribute to the Austrian-born Schell, who died on February 1, aged 83, the festival will screen My Sister Maria - the actor/director's portrait of his own sibling - on February 9.
The festival will also screen, on February 11, Hoffman's Oscar-winning performance in Capote, as a tribute to the 46-year-old who was found dead in his New York apartment at the weekend. It was announced today and Hoffman will be digitally recreated so that his final film, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2, can be completed with his existing contributions intact.
