Hoboken is where I call home these days, so you could imagine my surprise when I realized that the Hoboken International Film Festival is happening blocks away from apartment this year? I know, I know, how did it take me this long to realize that? I don't know, but thank god for my after-work evening strolls down Washington Street...and lampost flyers.

This one will take place from May 30th to June 5th, and it will be consuming various spots around the square mile stretch known as Hoboken, NJ. The majority of which will be held at the Multi-Service Center and Pier A. There are tons of films being screened (shorts, features, and even TV pilots) and it would cause me great pain to type them out, but if you check the festival's site, they have detailed information on what exactly is going on and where. Tickets are affordable, and Hoboken is a great laid-back change of pace from Manhattan so it should be a great time.

Oh, and Billy Dee Williams is getting a lifetime achievement award at the gala ceremony taking place at Sinatra Park on the 30th. There's still a chance to save Han!
