Temecula Valley International Film Festival will open with the World Premiere of "Greetings from the Shore," (pictured) which will include an "all-star vintage car parade" to the red carpet, which makes the fest read like Mayberry, until they start advertising the hot casino action - "If your game is slots, blackjack, poker, craps or roulette, we have something fun for everyone."
From their press release, other film highlights:
World Premiere of “A Modern Twain Story: The Prince and the Pauper” starring Cole and Dylan Sprouse.
Special Feature Presentation of “National Lampoon's Bag Boy”

“Dalai Lama Renaissance”

“Incest: A Family Tragedy”
An in-depth look on the dark and secret world of incest, This documentary explores the behavior of those commit the crime, how it affects the victims, what police can and cannot accomplish, the history of incest and what can be done to stop it.
“The Journey to Palomar”
A film set in our very own Southern California. It's a fascinating film about George Ellery Hale, considered the father of astrophysics, as he struggles personally and professionally to build the greatest telescopes of the 20th century at the Yerkes and Mount Wilson Observatories and finally the 20-year effort to build the million-pound telescope on Palomar Mountain in the 1930's.
From those titles, sounds like that awards ceremony desperately needed a little love. Hopefully, the smooth-as-silk voice of fest honoree Smokey Robinson brought it.
