GMFF 2008 ends
The 11th Green Mountain Film Festival has ended.
Thank you, Jayce Bartok, Ben Niles, Lisa Merton, Alan Dater and Kathleen Carroll for getting GMFF 2008 off to such a tremendous start over that first weekend, to Jonathan Crowley, and to Edith Velmans for her illuminating contribution on Sunday evening. Thanks also to Bill Lee for his event after the Monday night screening of High and Outside. Maybe event isn’t the word — it was a happening. [Bill was last seen disappearing Pied Piper-style down Main Street, with what looked like most of the audience in tow. Where did they go?]
Thanks also to everyone who followed - Tom Hurwitz, Doron Benvenisti, Aaron Woolf, Bari Pearlman, Norm Cohn, Christine Vachon and to all of our Vermont guests who helped us present the 11th festival - and make it a festival to remember.
Kathleen Carroll was interviewed on VPR on Friday, March 21 during All Things Considered.
Special events this weekend include the first ever Green Mountain Crankie Festival, and a showcase of work from new Vermont Filmmakers.
For the second year Montpelier’s Langdon Street Cafe joins in the festival fun with FREE SHORT FILMS in addition to its regular line-up of live music. Films to play Tuesday and Wednesday, 7-9pm.
The 1st Green Mountain Crankie Festival
is the latest sidebar to be added to GMFF. The crankies are ready to roll (or should that be unroll ?) on Sunday March 30th at the T. W. Wood Gallery & Art Center in Montpelier. See program for details.
And remember to check out the film festival window displays around town.
