Holy cow! There is now less than one week until The MassBay Film Festival’s Kickoff Event, featuring a FREE screening of the newly-restored version of Worcester native Samuel Fuller’s World War II epic, THE BIG RED ONE. The screening is at Showcase Cinemas Worcester North on Thursday, April 14th at 7:30pm, and all you have to do to come is stop by Tatnuck Bookseller at 335 Chandler Street in Worcester any time to claim your pass, which admits you and a guest. There is a limited number of these passes available, so please get yours soon.
The MassBay Film Festival is a Worcester-based multi-day, multi-venue film event, featuring over 50 films, including some area and New England premieres, director appearances and some surprises still in store. Chlotrudis member Rob Newton organized the Festival through The MassBay Film Project an organization he founded and on which he serves as Creative Director. After complaining to his wife Cynthia that Boston and Providence are sites for major film festivals yet Worcester had nothing, she challenged him to do something about it, and he has, in a big way!
