***DRESS***
Dress up, dress down…whatever you like to do, just be comfortable and you’ll feel fine..

***WHAT'S THE TYPICAL DRILL***
Filmmakers on hand to briefly introduce their film, then following the screening, the filmmaker will lead a q&a. Filmmakers are always easy prey in the Cinema Paradiso Courtyard!

***RULES***

Not a lot of them...pretty simple:
Turn off your cellphones during the film.
Don't even text in the theatre during the film...its annoying.
Can't abide by those two…please just stay home and watch television.
Also no videotaping during film (everyone knows that).
Be courteous to other members of the audience...and sure, while we're at it, what the hay, the staff too!
