49th Telluride Film Festival

Each Labor Day weekend, the tiny mountain village of Telluride, Colorado triples in size. Swells of passionate film enthusiasts flood the town for four days of total cinematic immersion, embarking on a viewing odyssey, blissfully spending entire days in flickering dark rooms. With only an appreciation of celluloid to guide them, these devotees flock to the show, year after year. Why? Blind faith. We don’t reveal the program until everyone lands in town. Yet the Telluride family trusts that a unique experience will unfold.The Telluride Film Festival is not just a picture show. It is Tributes to luminaries who’ve propelled the medium forward; it is candid discussions with a film’s creator or the historian who champions it; it is discovering that the person in line behind you made the film you just enjoyed; it is engaging in lively debate with every manner of film lover in the summer sun of a Colorado afternoon, always minutes away from a new exhibition. Our audiences were the first in the world to laugh with JUNO, to observe THE LIVES OF OTHERS, to visit BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN, to learn the secret of THE CRYING GAME, to experience BLUE VELVET, and to witness THE CIVIL WAR. We resurrected the silent epic NAPOLEON, and highlighted the genius of animator Chuck Jones.We take great pains to remain not a competition, but a celebration of the best in film — past, present and future — from all around the world. This is one weekend immersed in an unabashed carnival of film: viewing, breathing, eating, and talking cinema. This is The SHOW.

BIG EDEN

Ivywild Movie Night: BIG EDEN

Join us for a special Pride Month movie event as we show BIG EDEN on the large screen inside the Ivywild School Gym with the support of Ivywild School Events, Inside Out Youth Services, PFLAG, and the Youth Documentary Academy (YDA). Free admission, donations appreciated. BIG EDEN (2000, PG-13, 1h 58m)

Sometimes when you finally let go, you find something worth holding on to. From out gay writer-director Thomas Bezucha (The Family Stone) comes this funny, heart warming romantic drama that picked up audience awards at nearly a dozen gay film festivals and charmed critics nationwide! Big Eden tells a truly original tale of a thirty-something gay guy, Henry Hart (Arye Gross, Ellen, Six Feet Under) who returns to his childhood Montana home to confront his unrequited passion for his high school best friend. Big Eden is a tiny town tucked away in the timberland of northwestern Montana, where cowboys lounge on the porch of the general store to pass the
time away. It’s also the childhood home of Henry Hart (Arye Gross), a successful but lonely New York artist, who returns after years away to care for his ailing grandfather. Back home, Henry confronts his unrequited passion for his high school best friend Dean (TimDeKay) and his feelings about being gay in a small town. But, as we quickly learn, Big Eden residents defy the stereotype of “small town, small minds.” As Henry works though his emotions, the townspeople quietly conspire to help him along, until Henry realizes new possibilities for both friendship and romance.Big Eden is a uniquely American fable about home and family. It hits upon the universal longing and hope we each have for finding a place where we are
loved, and the unconditional desire to see those that we love find happiness. Favorite stars you’ll enjoy seeing include: Arye Gross (Ellen, Citizen Baines), Tim DeKay (White Collar), Louise Fletcher (One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest), Eric Schweig (Skins).

It had been said that the River North Media Building was haunted, but you brushed it off as superstition. However, recent supernatural activity has terrorized the tenants. The Haunting is Real. To help investigate and perhaps eliminate the ghostly disturbances, paranormal investigators Anthem and Aria have been called in. Hopefully they can supply answers and solutions. However, when things go wrong, the investigation turns dangerous. Everyone must work together to put the dark spirit to rest with a seance. Who are The Psychic Soulmates Connected by their mutual love of the supernatural, Anthem and Aria tour internationally spreading macabre mystery and a message of cosmic connection. Working as equal partners they read minds, summon spirits, and touch hearts at colleges, on cruises, and in world class theaters. You’ve seen them in Las Vegas showrooms and on Hulu and America’s Got Talent. Awarded Mentalist Of The Year, Best Variety Show, and the Lance Burton Award Of Excellence, you can expect a chilling and stunning night of ghostly illusions. The All American Haunting may involve pitch darkness, loud noises and bangs, blood, flashing lights, sensitive topics surrounding death, and unexpected spirit phenomena.

Sundance Film Festival Indigenous Short Film Tour

Ivywild Movie Night: THE ROOM

Join us in the Ivywild School Gym to watch Tommy Wiseau’s original THE ROOM on the large screen. One of the weirdest cult films you’ll ever watch. Brought to you by Ivywild School Events, Independent Film Society of Colorado, and Wiseau-Films. Doors open 6:30pm. FREE admission, donations appreciated. THE ROOM (2003, rated R, 1h 39m)
A successful banker’s (Tommy Wiseau) fiancee (Juliette Danielle) tempts and manipulates his best friend (Greg Sestero).
Writer/Director/Producer/Star: Tommy WiseauPRESS:
“The Room is the quintessential cult film, one whose excess and eccentricities become the cinematic equivalent of an alien trying and failing to assimilate among humans. But it’s also a film that’s genuinely mesmerizing, that earns each of its repeat viewings.” – Vox.com
“A bona fide classic of midnight cinema, Tommy Wiseau’s misguided masterpiece subverts the rules of filmmaking with a boundless enthusiasm that renders such mundanities as acting, screenwriting, and cinematography utterly irrelevant. You will never see a football the same way again.” – Rottentomatoes.com
“To make a movie that’s so bad it’s good you need vision, drive, luck and obsessive vanity. Fortuitously, The Room’s writer/producer/director/star Tommy Wiseau appears to possess all of these qualities, combined with a total lack of acting talent.” – Steve Rose, Guardian
“If there is a 21st-century Edward D. Wood Jr., it is probably Tommy Wiseau.” – Jason Bailey, Flavorwire
