chris gore points to BIFF

The author of The Ultimate Film Festival Survival Guide and the founder of Film Threat, says "Boulder as a vacation destination already puts BIFF on the map. And the staff's dedication to championing true indies, the amazing hospitality along with a classic theater (with a full bar that serves drinks during the screenings) make this a festival that should be on the top of every filmmaker's list."
