Denver Film Festival 49 starts tomorrow

The 49th Denver Film Festival runs Thursday, Oct 22 through Sunday, Nov 1. Denver Film announced 129 features, docs, and shorts at the Sie FilmCenter, the Ellie Caulkins Opera House, MCA Denver at the Holiday Theater, and the Denver Museum of Nature & Science.

Opening night is "I Play Rocky" from Peter Farrelly at the Ellie. Saturday's centerpieces are Tony Gilroy's "Behemoth!" and Danny Boyle's "Ink." Closing night, Oct 31, is James Gray's "Paper Tiger." Honorees include Carrie Coon, John Cho, and Fred Hechinger.

Budget note from the press release: the three public screenings at the Ellie have a pay-what-you-can allotment, and some other screenings offer limited sliding-scale tickets.
