Films and Events (2007)
Right now, all red carpets lead to Chicago as we welcome
the best in cinema from all across the globe.
For 43 years, the Chicago International Film Festival
has brought our city the most captivating feature films,
documentaries, short subjects, and student works the
world has to offer, but the Festival is much more
than a celebration of cinemaits a once-in-a-lifetime
opportunity to meet and mingle with fellow fans and the
innovative artists who make the movies we love.
Each film in the Festival is a premiere, so its opening
night, every night! Weve got the red carpet rolled out
for our guestsAnthony Hopkins, Malcolm McDowell,
Ben Affleck, Laura Linney, Jeffrey Wright, Tony Gilroy,
Alison Eastwood, István Szabó, a host of stars from the
international film community, and, of course, you! This
year, were proud to dedicate the Festival to Pulitzer
Prize-winning critic Roger Ebert, whom we will honor on
Opening Night.
Sit in the front row for world premieres. Talk with
the directors. Shake hands with the stars. Discover
the brightest new talent. The velvet rope is open.
Come inside.
Michael Kutza Founder and Artistic Director
