Those who were there remember the glorious year 2019, which gave us the North Texas Film Festival.
It felt like a fever dream, and sadly we will not be seeing another edition of the North Texas Film Festival.In the final days of September 2019, a momentous event for Dallas film geeks took place as the inaugural edition of the North Texas Film Festival launched at the Cinemark West Plano location.
There are plenty of reasons why this festival needs to take a cue from the Backstreet Boys and be “back.” Unfortunately, there are equally hefty factors making it unlikely NTXFF will light up movie theater screens again. The outcome of NTXFF wasn’t surprising to the film festival vet, given the Texas-based competition it faced. From Armer’s point of view, was a big competitor. This springtime event presented a challenge, given “a long history, very well established and very respected in the industry.”The fact that NTXFF never returned wasn’t an unexpected development, but something ingrained into the very fabric of the proceedings.
This means screenings of those acclaimed titles are often largely only available in the final months of the year. This precludes DIFF from housing a slew of potential Oscar juggernauts.
