It is safe to say that Cairo International Film Festival will be ending on Friday evening with a bang, with Hollywood stars Nicolas Cage, Hillary Swank, and Adrien Brody attending the closing ceremony. Cairo Film Festival has been ongoing for the past nine days, and beyond movie screenings it has thrown a host of events and presented awards to accomplished figures in the scene. The festival also included screenings of top Hollywood movies including ‘The Mountain Between Us’, starring Kate Winslet and Idris Elba, and the film was showcased in the presence of the film’s director, Hany Abu Assad. The three Hollywood stars attending the closing are a wonderful addition to the festival, with each boasting an award-winning career. Meanwhile, while she is mainly recognized for her sweet-but-tough-girl roles, Hillary Swank gained global acclaim for roles in movies like ‘PS I love you’, ‘Freedom Writers’, and ’Insomnia’.
