technologies are changing filmmaking and
film-viewing. The Film Experience: Big Screen,

With the
advent of Internet TV (IPTV), the web promises
global access to content and interactivity. Is it
democratization of the media, the dawn of a digital
community, or the end of theatrical communal

•••
At first glance, the
term "Los Angeles Film Festival" seems almost
redundant. Why on earth would L.A. -- home of the
Oscars and the Golden Globes, not to mention every
American studio, film institute and film industry
union, where premieres and various red carpet
events tangle traffic somewhere in town every night
-- need a film festival? Isn't pretty much every
day here a film
festival?
•••
No, no, no, say the
organizers of the festival, which begins today and
runs through July 2. Los Angeles needs a
world-class film festival, they say, precisely
because the idea might seem
redundant.
•••
It seems to be
working. As little as five years ago, it was a
distinctly local event with attendance at about
12,000 and virtually no industry buzz, much less
participation. Last year it drew 60,000 people,
including such luminaries as Sydney Pollack (who
was the guest director), George Clooney and Halle
Berry, and officially outgrew its Hollywood
venue.
•••
This year, the
festival, which is presented by the Los Angeles
Times, will take over much of Westwood, where
festival director Richard Raddon expects 80,000.
The guest director will be George Lucas, who is
hosting a retreat for participating feature
filmmakers; and the opening film will be the much
anticipated chick-lit adaptation "The Devil Wears
Prada." Stars including Harrison Ford, Virginia
Madsen, Anne Hathaway and Aidan Quinn will
participate in various events, and Charlize Theron
will receive the second annual Spirit of
Independence Award.
•••
The film
festival circuit is an increasingly competitive
place. While
digital technology created more "independent
filmmakers," the quality films produced each year
remain a small, sought-after percentage. Rosen
spends much of her year traveling from one festival
to another, keeping an eye out for new trends and,
more important, looking for new filmmakers to whom
she will explain the benefits of competing, or just
showing in Los Angeles.
•••
"We have a good
relationship with Toronto and Sundance," Rosen
says. "They, like us, prefer to premiere movies but
sometimes we make
compromises."
•••
Timing is precisely
why screenwriter, actress and producer Jennifer
Westfeldt says she insisted on premiering "Ira and
Abby," a romantic comedy about a mismatched
marriage, in L.A.
•••
"When you have a film
that is at all topical or zeitgeist-y," she says,
"you want people to see it sooner rather than
later."
•••
Westfeldt also
considers L.A. her lucky festival &emdash; five
years ago, "Kissing Jessica Stein," a film she
co-wrote and starred in, was picked up by Fox
Searchlight after they saw it in L.A. "It's nice to
come back to where it began," she
says.
•••
Writer-director Sara
Kelly says she was determined to premiere "The
Lather Effect" at the L.A. Film Festival, in part
because the movie, about a group of
thirtysomethings trying to recapture the '80s, is
very L.A.-specific. She has high hopes of getting a
distributor here, "because all the buyers live
here, after all." She has also submitted the film
to Toronto where, should it be accepted, it would
not get premiere treatment because of its
appearance in L.A.
•••
"It was a conscious
decision," she says. "And not everyone agreed with
it. Probably Toronto is a little sexier, but I am
an L.A. filmmaker and I want to help make this
festival one of the best in the
world."
•••
About 1,600
feature-length films were submitted this year, of
which 100 or so films were
chosen.
•••
"We don't have 400
films so the filmmakers know we're going to work
with them," says Rosen. "When we started, we were
small because we had to be small but now I have
really seen the
advantage."
•••
And because Los
Angeles has yet to build the reputation for
deal-making that Sundance has, the Oscar predictive
patina of Toronto or the international frenzy that
is Cannes, the festival organizers concentrate on
the resources at hand &emdash; geographical
proximity to stars and dealmakers, and also L.A.'s
reputation for putting on a good show.
