abstract | - The following introduction was written by Fargo Theatre Executive Director Margie Bailly, and appeared in the program: Welcome to Fargo, the Film Festival, Take V "What's It All About, Alfie?" It's about the movies... 4 days and nights of movies that open our eyes stimulate our minds, touch our souls, wrench our hearts; movies that reflect our past, predict our future, illuminate our present; long movies, short movies, happy movies, sad movies. It's about the people... dedicated volunteers, bleary-eyed movie jurors, starry-eyed filmmakers and simultaneously exhausted and exhilarated staff members. It's about the community... Fargo-Moorhead and beyond; sensible Scandinavian audiences that are willing to come in from the cold to a warm, comfortable space, to be taken out of their comfort zones by compelling, fresh, creative voices on the silver screen and in provocative panel discussions and interactive Q&As. It's about the Theatre... a theatre that USA Today calls one of the best in which to revel in cinematic grandeur. We call it a magical, spirited place, haunted by generations of audiences. So hang on to your programs, control your soft drinks and popcorn at all times and fasten your seat belts for a fabulously bumpy ride on a truly independent Fargo Film Festival airline.
