Film Festival Experience

I went to the Cleveland Film Festival with my boyfriend on Friday, March 26th to go see the film Paper Man. I did not really know what to expect when I went to the film festival, but I really did enjoy myself in the end. Everyone was really nice and they were really into what was happening. It seemed like one big family of movie goers. Probably my favorite part was that everyone was extremely respectful during the movie. Normally I always sit annoyed that someone is talking, playing with their cell phone, etc., but not this time. I heard or saw nothing distracting. It was a great experience.

Because of a time constrant I had to leave quickly from the film festival because I had to be back to close the building I work in. I did not really stop to look at merchandise, but it all looked really cool. Overall, I thought it was a great experience, I wish I had more time and money so I could check out other movies. Oh well, there is always next year.

  1. Anna,

    I noticed a difference in the theatre as well. There was no one on their cell phones or texting. No on was whispering or talking when they shouldn’t have been. I also thought this was a nice touch. Not only did I get to watch the movie, but there was no one who was being rude in the meantime.

    I bet this is because the people going are those really going to see the movie and not just for a social outing. I really liked the silence in the theatre. Of course, there was laughing during the comical moments, but it was at the right times.

    I'm glad you enjoyed your date!
