The 2001 Chicago Gay & Lesbian Film fest, Reeling 2001, is not happening. Instead, Chicago Filmmakers, host of the 20-year-old event, is screening various films this year, and plans to re-launch the fest as a summer project, possibly next June. ... Meanwhile, the acclaimed annual Chicago International Film Festival makes up for the lack of a gay fall fest by including tons of GLBT films during the October festival, see their website: www.chicagofilmfestival.com
