New York has got some pretty serious bragging rights at the moment, not just with the Knicks but in the world of entertainment.
Last year, The Tribeca Festival started by Robert De Niro and his business partner, Jane Rosenthal, signaled that NYC was getting back to normal, and this year it's back to business as usual for the event which has grown to represent storytelling in so many forms.
The long wait to see the film adaptation of Lin-Manuel Miranda's "In the Heights" is over, after the release of the movie based on the Broadway show was delayed by the pandemic for a year.
This week marks the end of a long journey for Lin-Manuel Miranda, one that began when he started writing his first musical at the age of 19. Before he ever created "Hamilton," he was thinking about life where he grew up "In the Heights."
The Tribeca Festival remains as relevant today as ever before say its organizers, and they have the programming to back up that claim. Over the next 10 days, more than 200 films will be seen by more than 100,000 people.
The Tribeca Film Festival will be returning in June, and for the first time ever, opening night will be screened simultaneously across all five boroughs in multiple open-air venues.
