"We were so excited to have "the Frank Anderson" be part of the 4th annual Toofy Film Festival. Mark & Jeff were extremely helpful every step of the way. It's amazing that Toofy was only in its fourth year, it felt like a much more established film festival.
I would highly recommend trying to get your project into Toofy!"

"Toofy Film Fest is truly an original. They bring great film, music,
fashion, and art to Boulder--a place where people know real art when they see it. You can't afford to miss this festival. It's so much fun, it'll make your Toof hurt!" |

"Sure the name just oozes frivolity, but make no mistake: Toofy is serious. Dead serious. About independent film, that is. Maybe too serious. Hey guys, lighten up, you're scaring me.
It may not be overstating the case to say that the Siebert brothers may
just have the keenest eye for independent film talent since another pair of scrappy upstart brothers named Bob and Harvey. Or maybe it is. Overstating the case, that is.
But heck, if it hasn't been said before, let me be the first to proclaim: Jeff and Mark Siebert are no less than the Weinsteins of the indie festival circuit. Without the brisket-breath. Their brilliance is on display each year in the form of the penetrating, insightful, and - dare I say - incisively relevant work they recognize at Toofy. An award at Toofy confers an air of legitimacy on a film that, say, a fake blog entry, or a positive review from a retirement home newsletter just never will.
And I swear, I am not just saying that because our film won an award
this year." |

| "The Toofy Film Festival was the perfect place to screen Stomp! Shout! Scream! Great crowds, great events... One of my favorite festivals anywhere." |

| “Toofy is truly an experience. It's a very personal festival run by passionate people who have great taste in cinema and, quite frankly, know how to throw a great party. They're younger, hipper, and more cutting edge than any other festival I've been to. They find the best films, the best talent, and they show them off to the world.” |

| "The theater Toofy plays in is an old-style 800 seater, but I assure you we had a packed house. The shorts programs that aired before us also had a ton of seats filled. It was as enthusiastic an audience as we've had in any of the fests we've visited. We're still getting emails from fans who saw us at Toofy. Jeff and his peeps runs a cool show. Lots of media exposure, he goes out of his way to help you promote your film, and big ops to take your film to the next level. But most important, at least for my money, an interested, active audience." |

| "It was a great honor winning the Best Short award for my film Mr. Dramatic... the Toofy wreathes still adorn my press kit for Mr. Dramatic... it was an honor." |

John Stalberg, Jr. - Director of "Mr. Dramatic"

"The Toofy Film Festival is one of the most up and coming film festivals around. I've had the good fortune of screening at Toofy with two different films in two different years that the festival has run and am glad to say that it's lead to great exposure for my short films. Toofy is a festival that is impressive and organized from the time you submit your film."

| "Toofy stands out in the fest community as being a festival for the filmmaker and not just the industry. When we told other festivals and filmmakers about screening at Toofy, they were pretty stoked for us." |
