Phillip Youmans’ “Burning Cane” took home the Founders Award for best narrative feature at the 18th annual Tribeca Film Festival on Thursday, with star Wendell Pierce earning Best Actor.
Youmans, a 19-year-old freshman at NYU, is the first African-American director to win the Founders Award and the youngest director to have a feature in Tribeca — he was just 17 when he wrote, directed and shot the film, about the fractious relationship between a mother and son in rural Louisiana.
Korean director Bora Kim’s “House of Hummingbird” won for best international narrative feature, and Ji-hu Park won best international actress.
In addition, Ellen Fiske and Ellinor Hallin won for their documentary feature “Scheme Birds.”

Burning Cane, the drama whose writer-director Phillip Youmans is the youngest-ever helmer to have a feature at the Tribeca Film Festival, won the fest’s marquee Founders Award on Thursday. Tribeca bestowed all three of its top juried feature awards on first-time directors, but none more first-time than Youmans, who made the movie when he was 17. He also becomes the first African American director to win the award.
The film’s Wendell Pierce won the Best Actor award in the fest’s U.S. Narrative Competition section. He plays a preacher dealing with his wife’s recent death in Burning Cane, a portrait of Southeastern Louisiana. Youmans also won a cinematography honor.
Haley Bennett won the Best Actress award for Swallow, a psychological thriller about a newly pregnant woman who develops the compulsion to consume dangerous objects.

Even the jurors at Strasbourg International Film Festival seem to agree with my rather generous praise of Robert Pattinson's performance in How To Be. The young actor just won his first international film award- as Best Actor in a Feature Film! (http://www.strasbourgfilmfest.com/films-up-for-nods-08.html) Pattinson won the award over two other nominees- Michael Madsen for Strength and Honour (http://www.strengthandhonorthemovie.com/) (representing Ireland) and Ali Atay for Happy New Year London (http://www.iyisenelerlondra.com/) (representing both Turkey and the UK). Oliver Irving's first feature was also the opening night film at the Festival. This happens to be one of the six or seven international film festivals that the movie is currently participating. For the month of October, the movie will be part of New Orleans Film Festival (October 10-16, 2008), Indie 2008 Film Festival, Brazil (October 10-16, 2008) and Austin Film Festival (October 16-23).
