GOLD STAR’s Filmmaker VICTORIA NEGRI leads Oxford Film Festival 2017’s Opening Night Red Carpet Photo Gallery
The Opening Night red carpet at the Oxford Film Festival is also a raucous event at The Lyric with Thacker Mountain Radio music blaring forth live onstage not that far from where the photos and interviews are being done in the foyer.
As with every event and screening at Oxford, the “party” is always about to happen, if it hasn’t already inserted itself into the proceedings -and the red carpets are no different.
