Experience Hollywood glamour at Flickers' annual Red Carpet Experience—a black-tie optional event featuring cocktails, dinner, awards, and a live Oscars telecast at the Graduate Hotel. We discuss the festival's impressive Oscar connections (six nominated films this year!) and keep an eye out for Hey Rhody's Chris Revill and Jenna Kaplan on the red carpet. Shawn and Ericka share their Rhode Island roots, their love of film, and their journeys to working in the industry.
