We're so excited about this year's Newport Beach Film Festival
from October
16-23, featuring over 100 film and 250 shorts from 32
countries.
The festival opens with a screening of Richard Linklater’s “Blue
Moon” starring
Ethan Hawke, Margaret Qualley, Bobby Canavalle and Andrew Scott.
The closing
night film will include a screening of Guillermo Del Toro’s
“Frankenstein," starring
Jacob Elordi, Mia Goth, Oscar Isaac & Christoph Waltz. And for the
International
Film category, the Italian film, "When Mom Is Away...With The
In-Laws" is already
said to be a show stopper.
We will be speaking with the creator of the NBFF, Gregg Schwenk,
who joins us to
talk about what's become one of the industry's most exciting
festivals, including
some of the special events over the week-long event. Make sure to
go on the
website for details, but Gregg will give us an inside peek during
our interview.
Please join us on all video and audio platforms of

host,
