The 2021 Reel Love Film Festival (Feb 10-14) is a brand new online festival experience featuring feature films, short film programs, and virtual experiences and I'm super happy to be checking it out. As always, I have selected my TwoOhSix Picks for the upcoming festival including four feature films and a virtual event. I have already watched one of the films and it just might end up being one of my favorites of the whole year.
- Dinner In America - Opening Night Feature
Dinner in America takes that classic slice of apple pie Americana, smashes it with a guitar, lights it on fire, and then rewrites it into a punk rock anthem that you can't help but sing along to.
- Funny Face - Centerpiece Feature
The destruction of his grandparents' home leads a young man to take revenge under a masked persona.
A working-class fable about a biker, a mermaid and three shades of blue.
A woman with an adopted child is contacted unexpectedly by the child's birth mother.
- Strange Storytelling Hour - Hosted by Emmett Montgomery
In this live event, emerging storytellers recount peculiar tales and bizarre happenings based on their own real life experiences. Stories of love and loss during a pandemic, sweet fever dreams or literally puking your feelings, these infectious tales will take you down a tunnel of love, friendship and the weirdness associated with finding belonging with others.
Presented with Northwest Film Forum and North Bend Film Festival
