There's nothing more that we love here at The Scenestar than a great show coming to town, but when there isn't one, we love to take a break and catch a movie or two. Lucky for us, the upcoming Los Angeles Film Festival gives us a chance to combine both! The Los Angeles Film Festival will take place on June 17-27 in downtown Los Angeles, moving east from its previous location in Westwood.
