The festival does a great ...Have to disagree, Nick. The festival does a great job for docs, foreign films and very small indies--especially last year with Let the Right One In (its North American premiere) and Man on Wire (played Sundance), and Bart Got a Room (World Premiere). Bart and Let did not have distribution rights before the start of the festival.<br /><br />Also, Tribeca is a nice starting ground for films to gain traction along the festival circuit and eventually get a release. Look at The Education of Charlie Banks. An underrated gem from this year that debuted at Tribeca way back in '07. <br /><br />So far in 2009, Tribeca has shown great/good films with set release dates like Outrage and Moon. And has started to gain traction for much smaller pictures like Guy and Madeline on a Park Bench, Entre Nos, and Fear Me Not. <br /><br />This is a smaller festival, but there is NO shortage of interesting films. Strangely, it's usually the films at Tribeca with star-studded casts that disappoint like 2007's The Air I Breathe and so on. Leave those movies for Cannes, Toronto, and Sundance. But then again, you never know.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09526327114099339104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-28078214062730516302009-04-26T14:00:00.000-04:002009-04-26T14:00:00.000-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09526327114099339104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-18057870535237296132009-04-26T13:45:00.000-04:002009-04-26T13:45:00.000-04:00As a film festival junkie and New Yorker, the Trib...As a film festival junkie and New Yorker, the Tribeca Film Festival fits both bills nicely...except I have given up on it. After countless terrible, at best typically mediocre, films--and the handful high-profile, promising films are usually only a month or two away from their official release. I've attended three times in the past year, and the festival isn't even very well run. <br /><br />Mainly, though, my main annoyance is that it's the type of festival that makes a film like <I>Transamerica</I> such a raging "success" story. I don't mean to sound overtly snobby, as time and budget are also a concern, but that is not any type of festival I would want to be closely involved with.Nick M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12566330717380805279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-62981480020659603382009-04-26T12:08:00.000-04:002009-04-26T12:08:00.000-04:00Nathaniel, I'm covering Tribeca for Washington Squ...Nathaniel, I'm covering Tribeca for Washington Square News.
