The Tribeca Film Festival will run from April 15th-26th here in New York City. American Express holders can order festival tickets on March 31st, and the general public can order tickets starting April 6th. The festival will feature the world premiere of the Arnold Schwarzenegger zombie drama Maggie as well as lots of special programming, including:
- A 40th anniversary screening of Monty Python and the Holy Grail with surviving Pythons in attendance (tickets on sale now)
- George Lucas in conversation with Stephen Colbert

Alec Kubas-Meyer and I will be covering Tribeca, so keep an eye open for reviews and features. Also, if I can get tix, expect lots of embarrassing geeking out over Monty Python.
