Sarasota Fabulous Independent Film FestivalTHE FABULOUS INDEPENDENT FILM FESTIVAL Burns Court Cinemas, Friday, August 23, Saturday, August 24 and Sunday, August 25, 2013. Scheduled to be held at Burns Court Cinemas in downtown Sarasota, on Friday, August 23, Saturday, August 24 and Sunday, August 25, the c will mark its third anniversary with 3 days of cinema celebrating diversity in the LGBT community. In association with the Harvey Milk Festival, a non profit organization, the festival is organized by broken rules productions. Tickets are $8.50, opening and closing night films are $10, available on www.fabulousiff.com and at Burns Court Cinemas on the days of the festival. Films scheduled are GBF, presented by Watermark Media, the festival opens with Darren Stein’s hilarious high school comedy about a shy gay teen who becomes a must have accessory for three crafty beauties who desperately need a Gay Best Friend to complete their look. HOT GUYS WITH GUNS, this frothy mystery caper centers on an aspiring actor and his party boy ex, who find themselves sucked into a crime spree targeting Hollywood’s so-called Velvet Mafia. FIRST PERIOD, a hilarious comedy (think Heathers-meets-John Waters) follows a spunky teenage girl (played by Brandon Alexander III) as she plans her totally rad "Sweet 16" party despite scheming by the mean girls in school. VALENTINE ROAD a powerful, thoughtful and tragic documentary tells the story of the 2008 killing of Lawrence "Larry" King, a grade eight student. HAPPY SAD, relates the story of two young couples in New York—one black and gay, one white and heterosexual—finding themselves intertwined as they create new relationship norms. Starring our own Charlie Barnett (Booker High graduate). MARGARITA, told through the eyes of a hardworking undocumented Mexican nanny, is an award-winning dramedy, which captures a turning point in the life of a Canadian family. INTERIOR. LEATHER BAR, James Franco and Travis Matthews (I Want Your Love) collaborate on this experimental and sexually explicit film imagining what was cut from the classic CRUISING. It created a huge controversy when screened at this year at the Sundance Film Festival. GORE VIDAL: THE UNITED STATES OF AMNESIA, the life and world of Gore Vidal, one of the wittiest and most opinionated author, essayist and commentator of the 20th century, is revealed in this hugely entertaining documentary that was a smash hit when it premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival. REACHING FOR THE MOON chronicles the passionate yet tempestuous love affair between Pulitzer prize-winning American poet, Elizabeth Bishop, and Brazilian architect, Lota de Macedo Soares. DESPERATION LINGERS, a short, by our local multi talented boy wonder: Anthony Paull, will precede GBF.
