<p>I’m excited at the direction the new exec. director is taking the VFF. At last year’s festival, I met the producers of the Narnia films and classics like “Diner,” “Good Morning Vietnam” and “Rain Man” (who are alums). And I hear next year will be even more fun. </p>
<p>I had a fun time volunteering at the VFF when I was a student. So, who’s going to be attending it this November?</p>
