Some MFF facts ...

Marfa, a town of two-thousand people in the remote Big Bend region of West Texas, is perhaps known best as the location for films like “There Will Be Blood,” “No Country for Old Men” and “Giant.” It is also a world famous high-art destination with dozens of galleries and home to permanent exhibitions of Donald Judd, Dann Flavin and John Chamberlain.

After its inaugural year, Marfa Film Festival has quickly become a must-stop on the film festival circuit. Variety deemed the festival a new corner of the “Texas Fest Triangle,” and Randall Roberts of the LA Weekly called Marfa “the best little festival I’ve ever attended.”

Marfa Film Festival Headquarters is the famous Paisano Hotel where James Dean, Elizabeth Taylor and Rock Hudson lived during the filming of “Giant.” The Alamo Drafthouse Rolling Roadshow will return to project the 35mm classic prints on their incredible 40 foot outdoor screen. Indoor screenings are at the state-of-the-art Crowley Theater in downtown Marfa.
