[quote]"Lost'' creator J.J. Abrams, actress Minnie Driver and film composer and former drummer for The Police Stewart Copeland will be the big names appearing at San Jose's Cinequest film festival, festival organizers announced today.
The 17th edition of the South Bay film festival begins on Feb. 28th. Festival Executive Director Halfdan Hussey said the 2006 festival generated $3.75 million in economic impact in downtown San Jose. He believes this year's festival will be even bigger.
"We've got 70-some-thousand people coming to town,'' Hussey said.
The festival will include more than 40 U.S. or world premiere feature films as well as short and animated films.
While Cinequest is growing every year, it remains intimate enough so attendees can actually interact with the writers, directors and actors who make the films, according to Hussey.
"About 70 percent of the films will have the artists available to talk after the film and answer questions,'' Hussey said. [/quote]
(Note: I'm not putting this in "links" cause it's kind of timely, and folks may want to discuss)

[quote]Some of the most exciting moments in Cinequest history have been the trademark Maverick Spirit Events. Past guest recipients have included: Sir Ben Kingsley, William H. Macy, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Gus Van Sant, Spike Lee and Kevin Spacey. These one-on-one live conversations with top film moguls and masters have entertained, inspired and intrigued. Cinequest is excited to celebrate three Mavericks in their own right with the festival’s highest honor. This year Stewart Copeland, legendary musician (The Police) and film composer, receives the Maverick Spirit Award as part of the Day of Sight and Sound Forum on Saturday, March 3. A screening of Copeland’s latest film Everyone Stares — The Police Inside Out will occur before the conversation with Mr. Copeland.[/quote]
