Eighth Tribeca Film Festival Begins

The eighth annual Tribeca Film Festival began this week "amid a turbulent time," according to the AP.

With the economy floundering, this year's festival has not only less submissions but also less prizes. The decrease in financing along with changing technology has made the film industry as whole lose a lot of stability in the last year.

But cinemaphiles are still enthusiastic about the annual event, even if they can't actually go:
