Gold Coast film fest produces a blockbuster for North Shore

The Island Now

This past weekend (Thursday though Sunday) we had the opportunity and pleasure of viewing some very special movies thanks to the Gold Coast International Film Festival, Regina Gill, the Great Neck Art Center and the Town of North Hempstead and Town Supervisor Jon Kaiman.

The movies were shown at several local theaters throughout North Hempstead, at Herricks, Roslyn, Port Washington, Manhasset and Great Neck cinemas. There were both foreign and domestic films, many being shown for the first time in the United States.

This was any opportunity to be a part of a film festival that will rank with other similar venues like Tribeca and Sundance.

For those who love great movies and missed this festival or who didn’t leave themselves enough time to see as many films as they would have liked; I have learned that plans are underway for next year’s Gold Coast International Film Festival return.
