Here are some impressions of the people featured in this list, focusing on their unique experiences and style:
On Thursday, Samuel L. Jackson was celebrated at the 2024 Film Benefit held at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City.
The actor expressed that film has long been, and remains, an influential platform, bridging language barriers, altering societal norms, and challenging both viewers and creators to view the world from various perspectives as we honor cinema tonight. Let’s keep in mind its ability to transform lives and motivate future generations who will benefit from MoMA’s acquisition and conservation of films that fueled the aspirations of a young Black child in a segregated Tennessee movie theater, now standing before us. Let’s continue sharing stories that matter, stories that touch our hearts, and stories that unite us.
The gala was jointly organized with Chanel, where tributes were paid by Denzel Washington, Spike Lee, Walton Goggins, Kenny Leon, LaTanya Richardson Jackson, Rajendra Roy (MoMA’s chief curator of film), as well as pre-recorded messages from Scarlett Johansson, Brie Larson, and George Lucas.
The evening closed with a performance by Grammy winner TEMS, who was introduced by actress Danielle Deadwyler.
