Sandra Bullock is to become one of the few women ever to be honored with a coveted American Riviera Award at the upcoming Santa Barbara International Film Festival in California.
The actress, who is currently enjoying success at the box office with The Blind Side, will be presented with the accolade at a ceremony on Feb. 5, during the 25th edition of the film festival.
The American Riviera Award was established to recognize an actor/actress who has had a strong influence on American cinema. Recent recipients have included Mickey Rourke, Tommy Lee Jones, Forest Whitaker, Philip Seymour Hoffman and Kevin Bacon.
Diane Lane was the last woman to join the club in 2004.
