Denver Film puts on one of the largest regional film festivals in the nation. Over the course of 10-days, the festival will screen 185 films including feature films, documentaries, and shorts. There will be red carpet events, panel discussions, and industry insiders. The Denver Film Festival opens with a Red Carpet presentation of “The Piano Lesson,” which is the latest August Wilson adaptation. It’s produced by Denzel Washington and is the directorial debut of Malcolm Washington. Write Virgil Williams will receive Denver Film’s Excellence in Writing award.
“The Centerpiece will be on Friday, November 8th at the Ellie Caulkins Opera House,” said Matt Campbell, Artistic Director for Denver Film. “This has some local connections. It’s called ‘The Order.’ It’s starring Jude Law and Nicholas Hoult. It’s based on a book co-written by Denver City Councilman Kevin Flynn, who will be on hand for conversation afterward.”
