CHICAGO – The red carpet was put to good use on the opening night of the 2011 Chicago International Film Festival on October 6th. The 47th annual edition of the two week festival featured stars Dennis Farina, Gary Cole and Jamie Anne Allman walking the carpet before the showing of their film “The Last Rites of Joe May.”
Dennis Farina stars as the title character in the film, as a small-time Chicago hustler coming back from an illness to find that life he knows has passed him by. Also walking the red carpet was writer and director Joe Maggio, who set the film in Chicago and produced it on location in the Windy City.
