Abstract
In 1976 film festivals will be 40 years old. On this occasion, Gideon Bachmann asks a few pertinent and vexing questions concerning this institution, based on his observations of Venice, Cannes, London, Tehran, and other festivals. The pattern set by the London Festival has been followed closely by the New York Festival and to some extent by the San Francisco Festival and more recently by the enormously successful Los Angeles Filmex: all aim directly at their resident film enthusiasts, and have gradually minimized society involvement and expensive publicity gimmickry.
