Chicago International Film Festival 2012
October 10, 2012
THE CHIEF CHICK IS IN CHICAGO FOR THE 48TH CHICAGO INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL.
Since many ChicksFlicks.com members live in or near Chicago, I will be listing here movies recommended as I see them. While I cannot post reviews until the movies actually open in the US, I can tell you which movies I enjoyed in case you can make the Festival which runs from October 11-25. ChicagoFilmFestival.com
