'The movies will be out at midnight this year at the 12th annual Whistler Film Festival. At a private media luncheon at Cin Cin, the festival’s new director of programming, Paul Gratton, announced the creation of a late-night screening series that kicks off with American Mary — the latest horror hit by Jen and Sylvia Soska, the twin Vancouver chiller phenoms behind Dead Hooker in a Trunk, The series also screens some scariness from Toronto — The Last Will and Testament of Rosalind Leigh.
Gratton, who has over thirty years of industry experience ranging from programming rep cinemas to programming for TV networks, says his goal is to make the festival a must-attend event for B.C. filmmakers and to create an event with, “a hip, cool vibe.”'
