City Island Set for Theatrical Release

Raymond De Felitta's Audience Award winner, the ensemble City Island, was one of the big hits of this year's Tribeca Film Festival. Need more proof? We were following the Audience Award closely (it was voted on after screenings by the attendees) and the Andy Garcia/Alan Arkin-starrer came out of nowhere, surging past Racing Dreams (which had loads of standing ovations) and Midgets Vs. Mascots to take the prize on the Festival's closing day. Thanks to Anchor Bay Films, you'll have a chance of seeing it theatrically in late 2009/early 2010.

De Felitta's blog, Movies 'Til Dark, has more information.

It's about ime. I've been waiting to see it a 2nd time. It's hilarious. I thought it was the best film that I saw at the festival. I loved it.
