Buzz on the street says during the month of February you’ll think there’s a time warp going on; or maybe that one of those NetFlix ads have come to life in Tally. You’ll be seeing men dressed as SuperFly or Shaft and women in classic shirtwaists from the 30’s & 40’s and even more couples in 80’s disco drag! Why?!? Because as part of TFF’s Tribute to African-American Films the FAMU Pan-Hellenic Council is sponsoring costume contests each Saturday to go along with the era of that day’s films. Come in costume for the screenings and vie for the Best Costume Prize awarded by local movie lovers of note. We don’t know about you but we can’t wait to see who channels Lena Horne, Richard Roundtree or Denzel! Or witness Commissioner Andrew Gillum (former FAMU Student Body President) in his best get-up on February 26th as he represents the 90’s. Don’t miss the fun Saturday’s in Lee Hall.
