Jennifer Tilly will attend the 17th Annual Florida Film Festival’s closing weekend festivities, April 5-6. Tilly will participate in two events that are open to the public.

Festival goers and Tilly fans can get up close and personal during “An Evening with Jennifer Tilly” at Enzian Theater, Friday, April 4 at 7:15 p.m. Attendees will enjoy a screening of the Woody Allen film Bullets Over Broadway, the 1994 sensation that earned Tilly an Academy Award nomination for her portrayal of the aspiring but hopelessly untalented actress Olive Neal. A question and answer session with Tilly will follow.

Fans can also join Tilly at the Festival’s Revel 17 closing awards celebration and wrap party to take place at Winter Park Racquet Club, Saturday, April 5 at 6:30 p.m. Following ten exhilarating days of films and events, the Wrap Party offers the Festival community, along with the film industry's movers and shakers -- filmmakers, producers, actors and VIPs -- the opportunity to let their hair down and enjoy a night of decadent revelry. The party begins following an awards presentation where Tilly will be the recipient of the Festival’s Artistic Achievement Award.

Individual tickets for “An Evening with Jennifer Tilly” ($20) and the Revel 17 Awards Celebration and Wrap Party ($75) are available at www.Enzian.org/FFF or by calling the Festival information Hotline at (407) 629-1088 ext. 225, Monday through Friday, 10 a.m. through 5 p.m.
