A Few More Sweet Tweets To Share This Sunday!

Oh wow, what an amazing week it's been! Now, it hasn't been all that long since my last Twitter round-up, so there haven't been all that many new tweets up. But I had to share a few of the very best with you, especially since so many are expressing the way I feel today, too. @longjump506 says TWO cool things: Got to meet one of the filmmakers... more

Time for the Saturday Twitter Round-Up!

Oh, I love this time. When I go through the Twitter feed and see everybody's wonderful posts, I get all warm and happy. And then I remember that not everybody's following Twitter the way I am, and I have to share some of the best! Check them out: @alexjones1021 says: #CIFF when it becomes acceptable to go to movies by yourself. (But you'r... more

Time for the Friday Tweet Round-Up!

It's been another great day -- and night -- on Twitter! Here are some of the Best Of Tweets from the #CIFF feed since my last round-up. I just loved reading all of these, and wanted to share them with those of you who, for whatever reason, aren't following them yourself. (Too busy catching all of your films is perfectly legit, of course!)... more

Good Films Go Best With Good Food!

Coming down to Tower City and spending the day with us doesn't have to mean subsisting on burgers and fries. (Unless you really love burgers and fries, of course!) In between your films, there are some wonderful options for dining in and around Tower City Center, which will let you eat well and stay close enough to make your next screening.... more

Oh, that was absolutely wonderful!

I just got to meet a lovely group of fellow bloggers from around Cleveland, who have come in for our Bloggers Night tonight! We hosted a reception for them in the Hospitality HQ, and it was great to finally get to meet them -- and for some of them to finally get to meet each other!

Twitter's Greatest Hits, 2

I love watching the Twitter feed! It's a great way to get a sense of how things are going in the Festival. I'm actually amazed at how little commotion there's been on Twitter in the aftermath of the glitch with The Art of Love, but that just goes to show how well everybody rolls with the challenges posed by a festival of this size! Here a... more

Amazing Plain Dealer coverage!

We owe so much to the Plain Dealer. They've given us amazing coverage year after year, reviewed our films, and helped direct traffic our way. But I have to say that nothing tops the glorious coverage they're giving us this year! If you generally don't pick up the paper anymore and j... more
