The Tribeca Film Festival’s 17th annual artists dinner at the Odeon in Lower Manhattan was a star-studded affair on Monday night. The bistro’s famed neon sign peeked above a tent shielding celebrities from onlookers eager to catch a glimpse of the red carpet.
Selma Blair stole the spotlight with her service dog, Scout, by her side, as she continues to navigate life with multiple sclerosis since her diagnosis in 2018. Blake Lively, arriving late in Chanel, apologized to photographers for keeping them waiting, jokingly offering to buy them Shake Shack.
The evening honored artists who donated work to be given to winners at the film festival, with Chanel bringing in a slew of famous names from their Rolodex. The event also celebrated festival co-founder Robert De Niro, who recently turned 80 and was gracious about the tribute.
Inside the restaurant, guests enjoyed plates of steak frites and burgers while mingling with fellow actors, directors, and artists. Natasha Lyonne sat next to Trevor Noah, while Chloe Fineman and Olivia Munn engaged in conversation across the table. Colman Domingo perused art books, and Katie Holmes caught up with Jane Rosenthal, the festival’s chief executive.
As the night came to a close, guests were invited to view the “De Niro Is An Icon” immersive experience at Spring Studios, showcasing items from De Niro’s archives. Jude Law and Selma Blair were among those who headed to the exhibit, with Blair graciously thanking a server on her way out.
The event was a true celebration of art, film, and the talented individuals who bring stories to life on the big screen.
