Aside from being very exciting, the film fest is a great way to get involved and meet other folks who share your love of independent film and cocktails. This will be proven tonight at the swanky, pre-bash bash: The Martinis and Movies Membership Party at Blue Martini (2414 E. Sunrise Blvd., Fort Lauderdale in the Galleria). Ten bucks gets you access to information that none of your friends have, like what films the FLIFF masterminds have culled for this years festival, which celebrities will be coming to town and when and -- best of all you get seven dollar martinis from 6 to 8 p.m. While there, you can figure out which membership level suits you best; they start at very inexpensive ($45 for students, $70 for the old-enough to drink crowd) and give you free films, access to parties, and a built-in network of friends to share it with.
