This week Ethel & Ernest went off to the desert to make its North American debut at the Palm Springs International Film Festival in California. Out of 192 films from 72 countries, Ethel & Ernest was voted by the estimated 136,000 movie-goers as one of the top-rated films of the festival and was rewarded by a third screening on Best of Fest Day. Ethel & Ernest now has its first set of international festival laurels – congratulations to everybody involved with the film!
