• The Hawaii International Film Festival (HIFF) (Oct 19-29, 2006) is also seeking submissions. The fest has several deadlines between May 26-June 30 and entry fees ranging from $15-65. Fee waivers will be granted to Hawaii residents and students under 18. (more info)
• HIFF is also announcing its "Oscar Night America Party," the only Hawaii venue sanctioned by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to show an advanced telecast of the Oscars. No more cursing at the Internet or CNN for revealing a winner before you can watch the delayed Oscar telecast here! For $150 (or $100 if you're a HIFF member), you also get dinner and a silent auction. Event takes places Sunday, March 5, 3pm at the Pacific Club. Contact Andrea by e-mail or at 528 3456 x11.
