Tribeca Film Festival 2008

With tax season coming to a close, it's about time for a break. So grab your girl and go check out the best in up-and-coming, and established directors and actors at this year's Tribeca Film Festival. Not only for cinema heads, Tribeca also offers music events and an ESPN sports festival. But movies are the feature presentations, so check for Ludacris and Nick Cannon in the basketball flick "Balls Don't Lie" (a-yo!). Our eyes, though, will be ogling Mariah Carey in Tennessee. Because no matter what, it can't be as bad as Glitter. -Shamika B. Sanders

Tickets for the Tribeca Film Festival go on sale April 19. But the lucky cats with American Express cards can cop theirs a whole week earlier, on April 12. For more information about the festival, go to tribecafilmfestival.org
