  • (1888PressRelease) April 14, 2010 - HolidayCity.com - Thousands of film fans, producers, directors, writers and actors would be converging in New York from 21st April to 2nd May 2010 for the Tribeca Film Festival. This years' festival is expected to be more exciting with the screening of 85 feature-length films and 47 short films from various parts of the world such as Singapore, Netherlands and New Zealand. The festival would also be the venue for 21 world premieres. Fans can expect some star sightings with well-known actors such as Sam Rockwell, Harry Dean Stanton and David Thewlis, making their appearances alongside lesser known talents. First time directors would also be rubbing shoulders with the veterans which includes Joachim Back, who won an Oscar for his work, 'The New Tenants'. With such a big turnout expected, New York hotels are certainly prepared for the influx of fans and film stars.

    Founded in 2001 by Robert De Niro, Jane Rosenthal and Craig Hatkoff, the Tribeca Film Festival made its inaugural debut to celebrate the positive energy and creativity of the New Yorkers after the tragic attacks on the World Trade Centre. Apart from its objective to assist in reviving the local economies, the organizers also wanted to promote New York City as a major filmmaking center and provide established and budding filmmakers with access to a broader and more international exposure. The Tribeca Film Festival certainly differs from other world film festival as it caters more to the people's interests. Attendees can expect to see indie features alongside short films, documentaries and feature-length films, as well as enjoy themselves at concerts, comedy performances, street fair and even an outdoor 'drive-in' movie screenings.

    Lee Lai Huat, CEO of HolidayCity.com and a fan of movies himself, remarked, "There is no better time to visit New York City than during the Tribeca Film Festival. It's like a part of the city is on a party mode throughout the two-week period. It's a fantastic opportunity to watch some of the best samples of quality filmmaking and you never know, you might just be rubbing shoulders with a few Hollywood stars." He went further to say, "Although this year the organizers have introduced the Tribeca Virtual Festival for those who cannot attend the screenings, my advice is to try and come to New York to truly feel the spirit of the festival. Fans could take advantage of the great rates offered by HolidayCity.com for New York City's accommodation."
