The Vancouver International Film Festival, which opened last week, may be mostly about the films - but don't forget all the galas and parties. One of the best pre-festival parties is held annually at Jack Evrensel's chic Cin Cin on Robson where celebs pull up in their limos and walk the red carpet. Brightlight Pictures hosted this, their "5th Anniversary" soiree, last Tuesday complete with famous faces and fabulous food to kick off the week in style.
