The Festival, located at Harkins Theaters Scottsdale 101, is the 23rd celebration of the annual event. This weekend’s events included an Opening Night event with a Party Pavilion bar, the “Industry Night” meet-and-greet event, a kids’ day, and a Silent Auction to benefit the nonprofit Festival.

There was also Saturday’s classic “Film Prom” event, where filmmakers and actors wore their finest attire to meet fans, ate chocolate coconut bars, and danced the night away.

There’s still time to catch a movie or event at the Festival, which runs through April 2.

Here’s a list of the biggest upcoming releases and events, including appearances from Stephen Curry, Molly Ringwald, Judy Blume, Nicholas Hoult, and Nicolas Cage.

It Ain’t Over

Lawrence Peter “Yogi” Berra is one of baseball’s greatest. He amassed ten World Series rings, 3 MVP awards and 18 All-Star Game appearances. He caught the only perfect game in World Series history. Yet for many his deserved stature was overshadowed by his simply being himself and being more recognized more for his unique personality, TV commercial appearances and unforgettable “Yogi-isms,” initially head-scratching philosophical nuggets that make a lot more sense the more you think about them. In telling the whole story, It Ain’t Over gives Berra his due in following the life of a savvy, commanding, bad-ball hitting catcher with a squat frame but also a D-Day veteran, loving husband and father and, yes, product endorser and originator (mostly) of his own brand of proverbs now ingrained into everyday life. “It Ain’t Over” is directed by Sean Mullin.

Screening Time: Tuesday, March 28 at 7:00pm

Screening Times: Friday, March 31 8:40pm; Saturday, April 1 at 9:15am

Judy Blume Forever

Generations of readers have found themselves in a Judy Blume book. Her name alone launches a flood of memories for anyone who’s gripped one of her many paperbacks. For decades, Blume’s radical honesty has comforted and captivated readers – and landed her at the center of controversy for her frankness about puberty and sex. Now the beloved American author candidly shares her own coming-of-age story. This movie is directed by Davina Pardo and Leah Wolchok, and stars Judy Blume, Molly Ringwald, and Samantha Bee.

Screening Time: Saturday, April 1 at 7:00pm

Renfield

Evil doesn’t span eternity without a little help. In this modern monster tale of Dracula’s loyal servant, Nicholas Hoult stars as Renfield, the tortured aide to history’s most narcissistic boss, Dracula (Nicolas Cage). Renfield is forced to procure his master’s prey and do his every bidding, no matter how debased. But now, after centuries of servitude, Renfield is ready to see if there’s a life outside the shadow of The Prince of Darkness. If only he can figure out how to end his codependency. This film directed by Chris McKay is the final movie of the Festival and will surely be a sellout.

Screening Time: Sunday, April 2 at 7:15pm
