Add Meg Ryan & Dustin Hoffman to your list.

Meg Ryan and Dustin Hoffman Cancel Participation
in Israeli Film Festival Posted by RORCoalition

Hollywood actors Meg Ryan and Dustin Hoffman backed out
of attending this year’s annual Jerusalem Film Festival,
which is set to kick off this coming Thursday, following
the international outcry over Israel’s attack on a Turkish-
led flotilla that attempted to break the Gaza blockade on
May 31, The Jerusalem Post learned Monday.

According to Cinematheque associate director Yigal Molad
Hayo, while neither gave the political climate as a direct
reason for canceling their participation in the festival,
“it became quite clear that this was the reason,” he said.

“Meg Ryan was supposed to come here, it had all been closed
with her people,” said Molad Hayo, adding “a day after the
flotilla incident we got an email saying she was not going
to attend, and although they claimed it was because she was
too busy, it was clear to me that it probably had something
to do with what had happened.”

In addition to Ryan, who has starred in such movies as
Sleepless in Seattle, When Harry Met Sally and, more
recently, Kate and Leopold, Molad Hayo said that the
Cinematheque had also reached “advanced negotiations”
with Jewish actor Dustin Hoffman.

“We were very close to reaching an agreement with him,
then the flotilla happened and correspondence was ended,”
said Molad Hayo.

Ryan and Hoffman are not the only high-profile names to
decline participation in this year’s festival. Prince
Albert of Monaco, son of legendary actress Grace Kelly,
was also slated to attend.

“I’d already made arrangements for a tribute to Grace
Kelly to appear in the festival program,” said Molad
Hayo, adding that he believed Prince Albert’s cancellation
could have come from pressure in his own country not to
make an official visit to Israel at this time.

“Sadly, even though we are a well-known event, it is
obvious that the State of Israel has more influence
than we do,” continued Molad Hayo, adding “many people
are swayed by the political situation.”

Despite the obvious boycotting by high-profile guests,
this year’s festival will still bring in some 150
official guests from all over the world, including heads
of other international festivals, actors, producers and
directors. It will also debut roughly 50 homegrown movies,
documentaries and short films.

“Our guests this year might not be as famous as Dustin
Hoffman, but there will be some well-known producers and
directors,” said Molad Hayo. “Many of those attending took
it upon themselves to pay their own way. This, to me, is
very impressive and a compliment to the festival.”

He added that the festival, as in past years, will continue
to provide an avenue for coexistence between Israeli and
Palestinian filmmakers, and a delegation from the Cinematheque
in Ramallah will attend.

“We are well known for encouraging cooperation between
Palestinian and Israelis in the area of film,” said Molad Hayo.

More than 70,000 people are expected at the two-week event,
which will take place at the Cinematheque and at various
other locations around the capital.
