There was no festival in the area in March. So we went for it. I just want to give filmmakers a new platform and they (PBIFF) want to kill us our first time out. They actually offered to merge and promised me a seat on their board. What does that get me
More Quotes from Michael Posner:
We're giving filmmakers the chance to network with each other and with people looking to distribute movies. Also, local residents can enjoy some great cinema.Michael Posner
When I was at the Toronto Film Festival this week, I saw this wonderful Brazilian film called House of Sand. Since the movie was so terrific, and Delray has a large Brazilian population, I thought it would make for a nice addition. When I spoke to the film's director himself and told him about the Delray Film Festival, he instantly said yes.

A filmmaker's worst nightmare is screening his film and there's no one in the theater to see it.
Michael Posner
It's ironic because for 10 years they ignored Delray Beach. But I don't want to start a war. I want to be positive. We're two different festivals with two different agendas. I don't think we're a conflict to each other.
Michael Posner
People think I'm crazy, but for this first festival I wanted to give them a choice and show them what's out there. Fortunately, we have a lot of snowbirds here that can come by and see a matinee. Let's hope they do.
