Five Star Gift Ideas

If your husband is a fan of film festivals and independent movies, then there are several gift ideas that you can consider for Valentine's Day, which will cater to his love for cinema. Some suggestions are:

1. Film Festival Passes: Check out the upcoming film festivals in your area and purchase tickets or passes for him. The pass will give him access to multiple screenings, which will allow him to enjoy his favorite films and discover new ones. You can also consider getting a VIP pass, which comes with extra perks like early access and exclusive events.

2. Streaming Services Gift Cards: There are several streaming services that cater to independent movies like Mubi, Kanopy, Fandor, and FilmStruck. You could sign him up for a subscription, or you could purchase a gift card, which will allow him to watch as many movies as he wants for a certain period.

3. Personalized Movie Poster: Purchase a custom movie poster or have one made that features his favorite film or filmmaker. Not only will it be a thoughtful gift, but it will also make a great conversation piece to display in his office or home theater.

4. Film Books: If your husband is an avid reader and loves movies, then consider getting him some books on film history, biographies of filmmakers, or memoirs of actors. Some books to consider are "Easy Riders, Raging Bulls" by Peter Biskind, "Making Movies" by Sidney Lumet, or "Rebel Without a Crew" by Robert Rodriguez.

5. Movie Memorabilia: For a unique and thoughtful gift, consider purchasing authentic movie memorabilia, such as props used in films, vintage movie posters or autographed items. Check out auction sites like eBay or online stores that specialize in movie collectibles.

No matter what you choose to give your husband, include a heartfelt note that communicates your love and appreciation. Your thoughtfulness will make the gift even more meaningful and personal.

Or you can get him a star map with the date of your first kiss.
