The 19th annual Long Island International Film Expo, which runs July 13 through 21, has announced its full lineup.
Among the 127 titles are “The Train,” a short film featuring the late Eli Wallach; “Immunity,” a World War II drama filmed at Gold Coast Studios; and “Sugar!,” starring Alice Ripley as a housewife who forms an all-female, over-50 rock band to the dismay of her Republican husband (Robert Clohessy).
As previously announced, Ed Asner will be the recipient of the Expo’s lifetime achievement award and the subject of a documentary, “My Friend Ed,” which will screen opening night. The full schedule is at longislandfilmexpo.com.
