The best exciting new films await you, along with classics, forums, and plenty of parties. With its spirit of "unpretentious revelry" the Florida Film Festival is both welcoming and one of the most respected film events in the country. Reknowned for our hospitality, the Florida Film Festival was named one of the top 10 film festivals in the world by festival guru Chris Gore in The Ultimate Film Festival Survival Guide, 2nd Edition. Past years' guests include Oliver Stone, Gabriel Byrne, Famke Janssen, Jason Lee, Christopher Walken, Dennis Hopper, Leelee Sobieski, Steve Buscemi, Campbell Scott, and William H. Macy. The Florida Film Festival is distinguished by its casual atmosphere and sincere Southern hospitality and March is a fabulous time to visit Orlando, with an average temperature of 70 degrees. The Festival prides itself in extending that hospitality to the filmmakers who make it all possible. For ten wonderful days, the festival connects the community with artists and filmmakers. With 21,000 attendees and more than 100 filmmakers and special guests in 2003, the Florida Film Festival proved that it is the prime film event in Florida. But the Festival is not just about watching films. The Festival also brings the public an amazing slate of educational seminars, glamorous parties, and celebrity guests. Countless films and special events expand horizons, incite inspiration, and spark excitement that lingers long after the event has concluded. © Copyright 2003 by www.filmmakers.com |
