Acapulco Film Festival

Sophia Loren and Alain Delon have promised to be on hand for the opening of the Acapulco Film Festival, which starts next week. The festival is an on and off event, first held in the 1960s. It is being revived in an attempt to revive Acapulco’s reputation as a glamorous hot spot. The resort has been overshadowed by Cancun, Los Cabos and others and been troubled by narcotics cartels battling for control of the area.
