Veteran Entertainment Reporter and Actor Nicholas Snow kicks off the latest season of his hit online radio show, SnowbizNow, with daily reports from the 2014 Palm Springs International Film Festival, 25th Anniversary Edition. In this episode, the complete juried award winners are announced at luncheon on Saturday, January 11, 2014.  The Festival, held from January 3-13, 2014, screened 191 films from 60 countries, including 46 of the 76 foreign language entries for this year’s Academy Awards®.

Said Festival Director Darryl Macdonald, ...'The real standout has been the overall excellence of the films in this year's Festival lineup, proving that the phenomenally strong year we've witnessed in Hollywood filmmaking has been more than matched by the strong upswing in quality filmmaking worldwide.  I wish we could provide awards to all of the filmmakers at this year's event – their work certainly merits it.”
