SBIFF Final Report: It’s a Wrap for SBIFF 2021
Peruse the movie menu (on your smartphone). Buy those tickets (on your laptop). Grab some popcorn (from your microwave). And get comfortable (on your couch) for the Santa Barbara International Film Festival’s 2021 incarnation, a mostly virtual, pandemic-proof program of streaming films, celebrity tributes, and filmmaking panels that can be enjoyed easily from your own home.
We say “mostly virtual” because there is the revolutionary, hope-it-sticks option to head down to the SBCC parking lots by Leadbetter Beach and check out two pop-up drive-in theaters, where movies can also magically be seen during the day. These screenings are free, albeit limited to 50 cars per screen, and must be booked in advance.
