بهروز جلیلی (المپیا جلینی) را هرکس به نوعی تفسیر و آنالایز می کند، او انسانی سختکوش و خستگی ناپذیر است که از 38 سال پیش تا امروز، در زمینه های فرهنگی، هنری و اجتماعی لحظه ای آرام نداشته است.
آنروزها که رستوران سنتی دیزی را در وست وود برپا کرد، هنوز ایرانیان جا نیفتاده بودند، وقتی در طبقه بالای آن یک کتابخانه راه انداخت و با حضور بزرگان تئاتر و سینما یک مرکز تیاتری را آغاز کرد، کمتر کسی باور می کرد که او زیر بار سنگین این خدمات بدون درآمد تاب بیاورد، ولی او تاب آورد و وقتی دو هفته قبل در هیلتون یونیورسال بیست و سومین سالگرد جشنواره فامیلی فیلم اواردز Family Film Awards را برگزار کرد، خیلی ها باورشان شد که گذر 38 سال برانرژی و پیگیری و سختکوشی او اثری نداشته، بلکه مصمم تر پیش میرود.
در آخرین جشنواره فامیلی فیلم اواردز، اندی جایزه Life Achievement را دریافت کرد که حق اش بود. چرا که حتی چهره های معروف هالیوود هم او را می شناختند.
«جلینی» اینروزها راه به سوی کشورهای جهان باز کرده و فامیلی فیلم اواردز و المپیا اواردز را با خود به سرداران هنر سینما در 5 قاره معرفی می کند و بمرور بسیاری از کشورها چون چین، فرانسه، آلمان، کانادا، انگلیس و ژاپن او را می شناسند و با هدف های انسانی اش آشنا هستند و بزودی المپیا اواردز با کمک کشورهای مختلف در سطح گسترده ای برگزار میشود.
امسال در فامیلی فیلم اواردز، فیلم قصر شیرین ساخته رضا میرکریمی و بازیگری حامد بهداد بعنوان بهترین فیلم ایرانی معرفی شد و جایزه ویژه دریافت کرد. فیلمی که اینک در لس آنجلس روی پرده آمده است.
