The dynamic, glamorous and one-of-a-kind Faye Dunaway takes the spotlight on this night, with the world premiere of Live from the TCM Classic Film Festival: Faye Dunaway (2017), her interview at the Ricardo Montalbán Theater in Los Angeles during the 2016 TCM Classic Film Festival. In this wide-ranging conversation with TCM host Ben Mankiewicz, Dunaway reminisces on working with such costars as Paul Newman, Peter Finch and Steve McQueen; partying with Robert Duvall and Al Pacino in the 1970s; and creating her imposing body of cinematic work.

We'll also be screening four of Dunaway's outstanding movie performances including her Oscar®-winning vehicle, Network (1976), which she introduced at a screening during the festival. In this satire of the television industry, written by Paddy Chayefsky and directed by Sidney Lumet, Dunaway is the ruthless programming head Diana Christensen who will go to any lengths to ensure high ratings. Arthur Penn's Bonnie and Clyde (1967), which gave Dunaway her breakthrough role as gun moll Bonnie Parker, brought her first Oscar® nomination. In The Arrangement (1969), directed by Elia Kazan and based on his novel of the same name, Dunaway plays the mistress of a troubled ad executive (Kirk Douglas). The sentimental drama The Champ (1979), directed by Franco Zeffirelli, sees Dunaway as the wife of an ex-boxer (Jon Voight) who is attempting a comeback.
