Philadelphia Film Festival is Announced!

Last week I got to attend the Kick-Off Party for the Philadelphia Film Festival, and was so excited to hear about the festival’s line up!  It doesn’t get any bigger than…Bradley Cooper!  Ya know, just the Sexiest Man Alive.

The festival opens on October 18 with Silver Linings Playbook, starring Cooper and Hollywood’s IT Girl, Jennifer Lawrence.   The film got rave reviews since being screened at the Toronto Film Festival AND won the People’s Choice Award! Lucky for us  Philadelphians, it was also filmed locally and actually takes place locally. There’s already a lot of Oscar buzz surrounding this one – watch the trailer below and see for yourself why!

There’s lots of cool stuff to see at this year’s festival, and you can get all the info here!  Horror flicks, a from-the-vault series, a VIP lounge and even free movies!

Closing night promises to be another event to be talked about long after it’s over; Denzel Washington stars in “Flight” to be screened on October 27, with its Oscar-winning director Robert Zemeckis to attend.  Here’s hoping Denzel also shows
