The Film Society's Annual Gala was launched in 1972 to honor famous actor Charlie Chaplin who returned to the US from exile to accept the commendation.

The 68-year-old actress gained recognition for her portrayal of aloof and mysterious beauties in films such as Repulsion (1965) and Belle de Jour (1967).
In 1993, Deneuve was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actress for her performance in the movie Indochine. Apart from this, she received César Awards for that film and The Last Metro (1980).
For the current Chaplin Award Gala, Susan Sarandon acted as the Honorary Chair while the initial presenter lineup included Martin Scorsese, Chiara Mastroianni, François Ozon and James Gray.
