SAN FRANCISCO, CA – Zephyr Real Estate is pleased to support Mill Valley’s 39th Annual Film Festival. The Festival opens on Thursday, October 6, at 7 pm, with La La Land, a musical starring Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling, who sing and dance their way through this light-hearted tribute to filmmaking. The Cine Arts Sequoia Theatre in Mill Valley is the venue, and special guests are Emma Stone and director, Damien Chazelle.
The Opening Night Gala will follow at 9 pm at the Marin Country Mart in Larkspur. The Ethan Tucker Band will be on deck, with their trademark acoustic roots and bluesy vocals. Food and beverages from local purveyors will round out the festivities.
Other films include the premiere of The Architect, starring Eric McCormack and Parker Posey; A Quiet Passion, starring Cynthia Nixon; The 3D Sideshow, Molly Monster, Kepler’s Dream and many, many more. Screenings will take place in Mill Valley, San Rafael, Larkspur, Corte Madera and other locations around the area. A full schedule of times, dates, venues and ticket purchases is available at http://www.mvff.com.
The Mill Valley Film Festival (MVFF) began in 1977 as a small three-day showcase. It has since evolved into its present 11-day event packed with new films, both American independent and foreign, as well as award-winning notables in the industry. More than 200 filmmakers participate from around the globe to share their work in a relaxed, non-competitive environment. MVFF is presented by the California Film Institute, which promotes film as art and education at the Festival as well as year-round exhibitions.
MVFF typically draws nearly 70,000 attendees over the course of the celebration, which includes much more than the films. Panel discussions, featured guests, spotlight presentations, live music performances and gala parties take place at a variety of locations throughout Marin County. MVFF has an enviable history of premiering films and debuting filmmakers and often provides a sneak preview of potential Academy Award® winners. This year’s offerings carry on that tradition.
“We are excited to be a part of this prestigious event and to experience the community’s involvement in the filmmaking industry,” commented Erinn Millar, Sales Manager at Zephyr’s Marin Office.
