The Tribeca Film Festival, the nascent downtown upstart now in its seventh year, kicks off tonight with Michael McCullers' Tina Fey/Amy Poehler vehicle Baby Mama. Running through May 4th, this year's slimmed down edition will unfurl 120 features and 79 shorts in a selection that, while still premiere heavy, includes a broader range of crossover titles from festivals like Sundance, Berlin and SXSW than in years past. During the festival, this blog will host interviews with filmmakers both well known and not, critical dispatches and perhaps the occasional video piece. Over at my own site, Cinema Echo Chamber, you'll be able to find longer form reviews of films and reflections on the festival.
