The best way to flush all those big-budget Hollywood summer spectacles out of your system is to consume plenty of the 2007 Charlotte Film Festival. For four days starting Thursday and running through Sunday, the fest will feature dozens of indie feature films, documentaries, shorts and student works. Plus, there are also panel discussions, an opening night gala and an awards ceremony. For an interview with festival founder Louis Gurgitano (as well as some of his picks for the weekend’s top titles), see this issue’s Flicks section. For complete details on the event (including times and prices), go to www.charlottefilmfestival.org.
