The director of 'The Sixth Sense' and 'Split' will head up the international jury for next year's Berlin International Film Festival.
Shyamalan’s appointment may come as a surprise for long-time Berlinale watchers who see the German festival as a bastion of high-minded arthouse cinema, though the director is indisputably a champion of independent movie-making.
“I have always felt like an independent filmmaker within the system of Hollywood,” Shyamalan said in a statement. “It is exactly those things in us that are different and unorthodox that define our voice. I have tried to maintain these things in myself and cheer others on to protect those aspects in their art and in themselves. Being asked to be a part of Berlinale is deeply meaningful to me. It represents the highest imprimatur for a filmmaker.
