MVFF37 Wraps, Nabs Record Attendance

10/14/2014

0 Comments

 
After 11 days of screenings and events, the Mill Valley Film Festival saw attendance soar to 61,000, the highest total in the festival's history. Audience winners included The Imitation Game, The Theory of Everything, On the Way to School, Whiplash, Imperial Dreams, Capturing Grace and Free.
The 37th Mill Valley Film Festival came to a close Sunday night with a special screening of Wild, Jean-Marc Valleé’s adaptation of Cheryl Strayed’s best-selling memoir starring Reese Witherspoon and Laura Dern, who was on hand for a tribute and Q&A. 

After 11 days filled with screenings of Oscar Contenders, World Premieres and Special Guests, the festival saw attendance soar to 61,000, the highest total in the festival's history.

“Although it is impossible to be all things to all people, I think the 37th Mill Valley Film Festival came as close to achieving that goal as I could ever hope to achieve,” festival Founder and Director Mark Fishkin said. “Many of the most highly anticipated awards season films, world premieres, striking international films, and cutting edge American indies are smartly and lovingly curated by our veteran Programming team to create a spirited collection of films that somehow blend into a perfect well balanced mix. From Metallica’s curated programs to our special Spotlights and Tributes, to inspired Children’s Programming, riveting documentaries and beyond, the 37th Mill Valley Film Festival offered something for everyone.” “The feedback that we have received from our festival goers gives us affirmation that we’ve gotten as close as possible to that mythical 'perfect festival' that we aspire to be.” 

The complete information and recaps from the festival are available here.
