Fans flock for this year's Film Festival
Due to an overwhelming response, more tickets have been issued for several of the Bermuda International Film Festival's most popular movies.
"The films `Human Traffic', `Ghengis Blues' and `Nasty Neighbours' have been so popular that more individual tickets are being released,'' said Festival director Aideen Ratteray Pryse. "Ticket sales are going well for the film festival.'' Ms Ratteray Pryse also noted that there will be matinees at both the Little and Liberty Theatres during the Festival which runs from April 14 to the 20th.
"We want to remind the public that there are matinees at both theatres this year to increase the number of seats available at each of the films.'' Matinees will be shown at 2 p.m. at the Liberty Theatre and at 4 p.m. at the Little Theatre.
All films will include a question and answer session and many of the films will be introduced by the actual filmmaker or director.
