The Boston Film Festival is returning to Boston Commons this year for another spectacular showing of quality film from around the world. Now in its 24th year, the Boston Film Festival is set to showcase a variety of shorts, feature films, documentaries and other genres of film from September 12 – 18. Festivals from year’s past have premiered numerous films, such as ‘Deliver Us From Evil,’ ‘A Guide To Recognizing Your Saints,’ and ‘The Last Kiss.’ And while this year’s list of films to premiere has yet to be announced, you can be sure that it will follow in the same epic line as the past twenty-two years of the festival.

Keeping with the theme of film, the Boston Movie Mile Walking Tour is an excellent way to immerse yourself in the settings of some of your favorite movies. Along this unique sightseeing tour you’ll be guided past numerous recognizable sites that have been prominently featured in both film and television. The original bar featured in Cheers, Ally McBeal’s work office and the park featured in Goodwill Hunting are just a few of the many stops you’ll make along the way as you knowledgeable guide offers behind-the-scenes facts and anecdotes about the various locations.

And for those looking to experience film on its largest medium, the Simons IMAX Theater offers a fascinating variety of documentaries and educational programming on a 3D screen that stands six stories tall. From exploring the depths of the ocean to roaming African savannas with the king of the jungle, there’s an adventure just waiting to excite and educate your family.
