The festival, which begins Wednesday, has shrunk to 85 films, down from a high of 157 in 2007. A leaner fest may be a positive for Tribeca, which some have in the past called unwieldy. Sponsorships also are down.
Having gone to the festival every year since it's inception I can personally say that if you have not gone you MUST! So head on down to Tribeca and enjoy the festival from April 22nd - May 3rd and let me know what you think.
I can't wait to go and see some of the movies. Are you going to the street fairs and the like?
ReplyDeleteWent to the opening events. I have to say that I always like going and I'm kinda glad that this year it has gotten a bit smaller. It was becoming too big and cluttering up Tribeca & Lower Manhattan the past two years. I did notice that a few of the sponsors seems to be missing too. Scholastic seems to not be as present as they were in past years.
