Regina Gil founder, and Caroline Sorokoff Director, had a surprise for Film Festival patrons last night. Hugh Grant one of the most well known actors in the world decided to check out the Gold Coast International Film Festival, which is in it's fourth year successful year. Needless to say, the seats were filled at the Soundveiw Cinema in Port Washington as this international movie star and producer shared his views on many topics.
This year the Festival honored honored four-time Academy Award winning Production and Costume Designer (The Great Gatsby, Moulin Rouge!) Catherine Martin at it's Opening Night Gala at Leonard's Palazzo in Great Neck, where the Festival occupied all the party rooms. The Film Festival was held at numerous Long Island venues during it's run.
Many well known New York State politicians, business leaders, and movie industry celebrities have attended the Gold Coast Festival, but it truly lived up to it's international status as London based Mr. Grant took that ride on the LIE to come to the movies.
