A LOWELL FILM FESTIVAL UPDATE!

The Lowell Film FestivalIf reservation requests for the Lowell Film Festival’s Opening Night Headline Film are any  indication, this Festival is gonna be STELLAR! 

As of this afternoon, seats for the Lowell Film Festival’s screening of Academy-Award nominated film “The Garden” have SOLD OUT! The Festival committee is still encouraging folks to come on out Friday on stand-by in case any reservations get released. But as of today, no more reservations for Friday will be taken.

The Saturday headline film, “Battle in Seattle,” still has some available seats, but they, too, are going quickly!

I encourage anyone reading this who is interested in taking in the Saturday  headline film to visit www.lowellfilms.org and make those reservations!

RESERVE YOUR SEATS NOW FOR:

Battle in Seattle
Saturday, April 4 @ 8PM
UMass Lowell, O’Leary Library
61 Wilder Street, Room 222 

And hey: did we mention there will be FREE heaps of popcorn, soda, and candy treats for everyone in the audience? [Yes, there WILL BE!] 

For all you late-night film buffs!

Film will be a HUGE part of the month of April here in the City of Lowell! And we couldn’t be more pleased!

In addition to the Lowell Film Festival (April 3 – 5), there’ll be several film events hosted by the LFC and otherwise, including the Pollard Library’s monthly indie film screening and Kitty Chick’s flicks. UMass Lowell is getting in on the action, with some great screenings on campus that we’ll keep you posted on.

BUT — here is film event you won’t want to miss! (Do we always say that?)

TampopoTampopo [1986]
Friday, April 3  @ 10:30PM
119 Gallery
119 Chelmsford Street, Lowell

Roger Ebert LOVES this film, and why shouldn’t he? It’s got food, beauty, sensuality … and that incredible 80′s look filmies can’t pass up. It’s a racy, sexy piece, and the 119 Gallery is THE perfect venue.

And I should of course mention that this great film is being screened in honor of the Lowell Film Festival’s Opening Night After-Party!

But read Ebert’s review for yourself.

And after you do, mark your calendar!

See you there!
