[ Movies Central | Metroactive Central ]
The San Jose film festival runs March 3-14, 2004 at a variety of downtown locations: Cameras One and 3, the Rep, and University Theater, Morris Daily Auditorium and Hal Todd Theater at SJSU.
Most of the films show at least twice, and individual screenings are $9 (with discounts for seniors and students), except for some special showings. Big spenders might want to consider springing for a Platinum Pass. It costs $500, but it gets the bearer into everything, and includes a Palm Tungsten C, worth about $500 all by itself. With the Palm, fans can access video updates from the festival.
For schedule and ticket information, call 408.295.FEST or check www.cinequest.org.
