cle film fest shatters attendance records once again

It is staggering to believe, but this year's Cleveland International Film Festival -- the 36th annual -- once again broke the previous year's attendance figures.

The 11-day film festival, which wrapped up on Sunday, April 1, checked in a record total of 85,018 filmgoers. This is a 9-percent jump from the previous year and a whopping 143-percent increase from 2003.

What's more, the festival saw it's largest single-day attendance on Saturday, March 31, with 13,176 coming to see a film.

See you next year for another record-breaking festival?
