Jean-Luc Godard not to attend Governer’s awards

MUMBAI: Jean-Luc Godard will not be attending the Governors Awards in Hollywood on 13 November when he is scheduled to be honoured with an Honorary Award said his companion and producing partner Anne-Marie Mieville.

Though Godard received a letter from the Academy, notifying him of the honour, he has not yet directly responded to the Academy.

But Mieville said Godard would respond to the Academy‘s letter notifying him of his honour and raised the possibility that someone from Godard‘s production team may accept the award in his place.
