March 2, 2010
Cambridge ON – The Grand River Film Festival (GRFF) is pleased to be collaborating with The Charcoal Group to offer film lovers a chance to come together to view the 82nd Annual Academy Award’s Red Carpet and Ceremony at Wildcraft in Waterloo.
A Night at The Oscars will take place Sunday March 7th with a special prix fixe menu beginning at 6pm complete with Red Carpet. At 8pm the Oscar presentations begin in the bar area where guests can enjoy special themed drinks and complimentary hors d’oeuvres.
The gathering is an opportunity for film lovers to have some fun discussing the Oscar-worthy selections of 2010 and watch as the Oscars are awarded. There will also be contests and prizes throughout the evening.
The evening is in support of GRFF which will hold its fourth annual film festival Thursday October 21st – Sunday October 24th, 2010. Last year’s Festival was a huge success, screening more than eight critically-acclaimed films and premiering the winners of the BMO SHORT Shorts. The Opening Gala was attended by acclaimed Canadian Director Bruce McDonald while the Closing Night Gala was attended by the 2009 Oscar-winning director for Best Foreign Language Film Departures, Yojiro Takita.
GRFF Chair David Marskell said “Oscar night is ideal to bring together film enthusiasts, at the trendy Wildcraft venue offering a unique space to view Hollywood’s most fascinating awards show while showing support for GRFF and its Film Society”.
“The collaboration with Wildcraft will create a fun and supportive way to enjoy and discuss film” – a concept that embodies the purpose of the 4th Annual Grand River Film Festival.
