Movies Serve As Previews For Area's Own UFO Festival
Columbian staff writer

California may have a reputation for celebrating the offbeat,
but it doesn't have a monopoly on showcasing the otherworldly.

Clark County and Portland-area residents can investigate the
paranormal in their home orbit, in two Portland preview events
for the 7th Annual UFO Festival in McMinnville, Ore.

At 7 p.m. Wednesday, the Bagdad Theater will host a screening of
Paul Davids' "The Sci-Fi Boys," which premiered in April at New
York's Tribeca Film Festival. Tickets are $5; audience members
must be at least 21. A question-and-answer session with writer-
director-producer Davids will follow the film. The theater is at
3702 S.E. Hawthorne Blvd.

On May 18, the McMenamins Kennedy School will screen Showtime's
1994 television movie "Roswell." The show begins at 7:30 p.m. at
5736 N.E. 33rd Ave. Again, the film is open only to ages 21 and
older. Cost is $5. Afterwards, Jesse Marcel Jr. author of
"Roswell: It Really Happened" will appear in a question-and-
answer session.

Marcel also will be the May 19 speaker at the UFO Festival
taking place 7 to 10 p.m. May 19 and 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. May 20 at
McMenamins Hotel Oregon, 310 N.E. Evans St., McMinnville. Other
festival activities include live music, shopping in an outdoor
tent, an alien costume parade and Alien Costume Ball. Some
events have admission prices, while others are free. For more
